F.K.S. - (FAA-34) Soccer 81 (02) - Scoop album


1978-81
(FAA-34) Soccer 81
F.K.S. / Scoop
1 album

Author Greg Lansdowne asked me recently if I knew anything about F.K.S. sticker albums being given away with Scoop in the late 70's and early 80's. We both knew about the Argentina 78 and Soccer Stars 80 albums that included reference to the fact that the albums had been included with Scoop. I then managed to find the Soccer 81 album as shown above.
Scoop was published by D.C. Thomson from 21 January, 1978 until 3 October, 1981 (issue no. 194) when it merged with Victor.
It's possible that the 1978-79 F.K.S. album - Soccer Stars 78/79 Golden Collection - might have been given free with Scoop too. Can anyone provide a scan of one with a reference to Scoop on the front cover?

D.C. Thomson / Scoop - Soccer Star Badge ~ Scoop's Soccer Supertsars


1979

Soccer Star Badge ~ Scoop's Soccer Superstars
D.C. Thomson / Scoop
12 stickers

The Victor gave away a similar badge in 1978 and again in 1982. Scoop went a little further, because as well as giving away a similar sheet of stickers, the magazine included photos that could be cut out for the following couple of weeks, giving further options of which player to include in the badge. I haven't got any iformation on these additional photos though. I bought one copy of Scoop and the cut-outs had been cut out! The badge and sticker sheet were given away free with issue no. 95 dated 10 November, 1979.
