I played back in the 1970s with two teams - one was Norwich
City and the other was Everton. I wasnt much good.
I was playing today. It's got to be the best footy game that
time forgot. Probably one of the best sports games ever I'd
say.
My local team want me to take a set down to our ground so the young 'uns can play while their Dads kick cobs out of each other. Should be a grin.

It's a table footy game. It's brilliant, great with a gang of mates
and a few stubbies.

These are two of the first teams I ever got. The thing with it is you don't have to be good to enjoy it!
Take GoldenBalls he's lousy in bed, but his boyfriend still enjoys it.

f**k nagging bitches and give me subbuteo please. None of
this crappy playstation sh*t also. Subbuteo - a real man's
footy game...
Just got my Grand-dad's set when he passed away in November. I'd
heard about Subbuteo, but never actually seen a set. Me and a
couple of mates played all summer long. It's awesome fun. Kiwill
had it right, don't have to be good at it for it to be a
laugh.

Cheers. sorry about your G'dad.
I've had some great games over the years. Trademe has Subbuteo/table football - I bought a set from there recently. There is a fair bit on there just now.
Had Subbuteo when I was a kid. Somehow lost the rules before
I was old enough to read them, and never knew how to properly play
it. That didn't stop me enjoying it. Must dig it out
next time I'm at Mum and Dad's...
If you get ever round to digging it out Dragon just pm me and I'll
send you the rules.
You guys are losers!
You don't know the half of it! Me (Everton fan) and my mate
from next door (Man U fan) would play over and over again. we even
made a little FA Cup out of cardboard...
I stepped on my keeper one day and so replaced him with a leg
off of one of my Star Wars figures.
Good times!!
Golden Balls was obviously just crap at Sub. and chatted up his
mates sister instead!
I used to have Poland and try to replicate the good old days.
Always loved the fact that the South Americans had dark skin too, and the scots were pastey white boys!

Hey I played Subbuteo back in the late 70's and so did my
sister. We loved it. In fact I still have alot of mint teams
that I got from a tip to the UK in the mid eighties! Hung up me
Subbuteo teams in 82! Got no use for them now. might
try and sell em! Help to pay off the Phoenix Gold season
membership I bought on 2nd July!!!!
My brother and I had stands, light towers, fences and camera crew
as well. Always tricky to get back and use the keeper if you moved
way upfeild i remember. We got a team (cant remember which) and
painted them as All Whites! Glory Days!topiary2007-07-16 21:34:38
Yeah we had a grandstand and floodlights and TV tower, fence with
advertising, coaches bench with subs, corner flags, photographer
and those funny corner kick figures and grandstands! I used
to hate losing to my sister. Come to think of it, hated
losing fullstop! My
sister and I used to beat the guys all the time and they hated
it!Aghhhh
those were the days! My sis doesn't do anything sporty these
days! But I'm a sports nut!

Because "Golden Balls" May enjoy this accessory
it was a great game, me and a mate down in Christchurch would
play it for hours, kept a few excercise books with teams, scorers,
bookings etc.
we invented some rules - if a fouled player was moved an inch
(yep it was a while ago) by the impact of the foul it was a
booking, 6 inches a sending off (livened up the games!)
the great thing about a booking was that the ref (who was both
of us arguing frantically) had to take the free kick (no
advantage)- hence the subbutteo professional foul was born
-you just mash someone down his defensive end and his attack would
be stuffed -more arguements - great stuff
we let the defending team build a wall for free kicks, but the
attacker could lift the ball over the wall - you just lightly held
his head and the flick would arc through the ball and send it over
the wall
haha the hours we wasted !
Richard Williams - if you are still in nz 32 years later, Ed
says hi (and Hull City are still a better team than West Brom - the
table does lie!)
Bloody hell, i loved this game, hours of fun, we use to get
together playing tournaments through the school hols, have our own
world cup between about 10 of us, the old ones are always the
best!!!
First time i heard of Subbuteo was in that show "Black
Books", in the episode when Manny gets the new security system and
the technician who's explaining how to work it has a subbuteo
player in his hair LOL, such a great show
