Subbuteo - Being Relaunched Today

Its much better playing on a table Thraw, though mostly I played it on the floor.

Gianluigi Buffon has over 500 teams in hus collection! Could we love that man even more? Was thinking about getting the Subbuteo set out at the weekend.

I remember as a chap a gang of us used to regularly run off a one day subbuteo league / tournament - it was fantastic… we spiced it up when one of the lads got some hand-held device with a football game on it — some 80s big monstrosity of a device that kids would throw back at you today… you played your opponent once on subbuteo and once on the device… the excitement of it was unreal.

The likes of @flattythehurdler’s young lad would laugh at the thoughts of it - saying it’s just not believable.

Lads who were into Subbuteo were weirdos.

Says the lad who had a toy farm :grinning:

I had a real farm mate.

Sorry to hear that - the bullying must have been unreal?

I did smash a few townie cunts alright.

Subbuteo a great game in theory, a terrible game in practice

@TreatyStones was a dinger though. He dominated the middle of the pitch.

You are nothing if not original mate

Consistent

Handy tip: one and a half old election posters stapled together makes a handy backing for a subbuteo pitch.
