    Can we fall in love with football again by collecting stickers...or in fact trading cards. In episode two of James and Anth's Premier League Sticker Odyssey, we welcome our first guest of the series as Matthew Ketchell, sticker aficionado, football encyclopaedia and Deputy Editor of Four Four Two Magazine joins us. Matt also brings one of his prized football possessions with him, expertise in the practice of opening packs of cards (which James can't master), deep cut Newcastle United knowledge and a memory of a Manchester United youngster that saves him points. The premise of the show is simple - through the use of Topps Flagship Premier League trading cards, we are on a mission to rediscover what made us love the game in the first place. Across the series we will be opening packs, chasing rare cards and reliving football nostalgia. Whether you're a football card collector, Premier League supporter, sticker album veteran or simply a fan of the beautiful game, join us as we explore the world of football collectibles and see if trading cards can reconnect us with football culture once again. Subscribe for more football collecting adventures, Premier League chat, Topps openings, football nostalgia and fan culture stories. Each week, we will be opening a new pack each and win points for the cards they get...but there's a twist. THE RULES: A normal card gets no points Common Special Cards get a point Autograph of Relic Cards and other more rare ones receive two points They lose points if they've never heard of the player they pack...of which there are many. And they'll argue about the rest. Each show, they will pick five players for each other and then their fates that weekend for point scoring are linked to those five players. At the end of the season, the points will tally up and the winner takes home the hugely impressive trophy.
