Write On Card Stickers

I’ve been using write on cards for my games this season, and I’ve gone through the majority of my stickers (I’ve been cleaning them to get maximum use).

I am coming round to buy some more, but I ran a line for a ref this season thag had a completely blank sticker. No grid, no writing. Does anyone know where I can get a completely blank sticker, that I can write on with sharpie?

I prefer it as it’s a bit more anonymous, rather than the normal stickers taking up the whole of the back of a card.

Any help appreciated

Just use masking tape?

Can’t stand the way it looks. I like the adhesive stuff because you can still see the colour of the card beyond the writing.

I personally get freaked out when I use masking tape. Additionally, because I sweat a lot, it often gets soaked through and illegible in my pockets - which nearly proved disastrous once!

Not to criticise any masking tape users :cool:

i have laminated my cards and then cut to size.
 
We've probably done the writing-system poll/thread to death over the years haven't we? Always find it interesting hearing what others do.
 
I use the high vis / dayglo cards and I get from amazon small rectangular dayglo stickers that match the card colours. You don't even have to use a sharpie that way, a biro works, then you just stick over it for the next game and then every so often wash the stickers off.

Looking like a very attractive proposition. Do you find the stickers are big enough for games with numerous cautions?

That’s when your surprise second yellow card comes into play! 😂

(I bounce about between methods depending on competition. Use a one-use write on match card more often than not. And the German language ones are usually dead cheap)

I tend to stick 2 on side by side and label one Home and one Away. I only use it for recording cards though. I use my watch to record goals. I'll send you a photo later of what my cards look like with them on.

Just the slight hitch, they're in German!

Haha I get the point, and I’m by no means fluent in German, but the space/boxes are there to write what you want/need in.

I’m probably writing “green stripes” where it should be the captains number or name, but when they’re about a third of the price I’m having them 😂
