Match Attax Football Cards
Just a few notes today regarding Match Attax football cards, I have a number of e-mails asking for Hundred Club and Man of the Match cards, these can still be purhased for only 35 pence each. The only cards that are no longer available to buy are Limited Edition Cards, these cards can only be bought when they are first released, if you still need Limited Edition cards I think your best chance is on ebay. For any more information feel free to e-mail me at jimmymcd1970@btinternet.com

Match Attax Football Cards - World Championships
As you all know the Match Attax World Championship regional events were taking place across the UK over Easter and loads of you came along to take part and try and secure your place in the World Final.
The events were wicked and everyone really enjoyed themselves, but the competition was fierce. There were some top players on show, some collectors had even been to previous events and tasted victory against a Match Attax Master!
All the players who took part really knew their stuff and the Match Attax team were impressed with everyone. All the event winners can now be found in the World Championships Hall of Fame.
These lucky few move on to the World Finals which take place on May 24th at Craven Cottage as Fulham host Everton on the final day of the Barclays Premier League season. The two players who make to the final showdown will compete on the pitch, with the winner being crowned the first-ever Match Attax World Champion! How cool is that!
After the finalists have enjoyed the game, they will be taken on an open top bus parade around London. This will give the winner the opportunity to show of the awesome World Championship trophy and celebrate their victory in true style.

Match Attax Football Cards

Thousands of Match Attax fans gathered in Birmingham and Liverpool this weekend as the eagerly anticipated World Championships got underway.
It all kicked-off on Saturday in Birmingham where there was a fantastic turnout of collectors all hoping to become the first-ever Match Attax World Champion.
With binders packed full of Match Attax cards, there were some top players on show who really knew their stuff. In the end, Elliot Brown, claimed victory using a brand new Hat-Trick Hero card from Match Attax Extra to secure his place in the World Finals in May.
On Sunday the tour continued in Liverpool, where once again the standard was very high. The Match Attax team even managed to spot some familiar faces that had come along and took on a master at previous events.
Greg Beresford who gained some vital tournament experience in the October tour, returned to claim victory in Liverpool and also progresses to the World Finals in May.
