Subbuteo
|
Anyone play or got kids that play it? Got to get a load of this stuff for a Christmas present, seems it's a bit of a minefield these days with regards to playing surfaces, pitch sizes etc.
Thinking of going for a rubber backed ASTRO pitch, seems to be a bit of a better option in respect of a flat surface when not mounting on board.
Anyone flicked on astro before?

Yeh thinking of it, it was a load of shit. The pitch always went like it had been half hoovered up. Keeper on a stick through a little gap. Wass all that about.

If you don't stuck it to a board it just crumples up and becomes even more shit, if its possible for something to be more shit than fucking shit

I played with myself when i was young. and i did the same with Subbuteo. Always was West Ham, played full seasons, always came about 3rd or 4th, so i couldn't be accused of bias. God i was boring

It must be soul-destroying to have so much imagination that you like Subbeteo and only be a hairdresser. Respectable as that is, it's not like being a great playwright, author or artist, is it?

Federation International of Sports Table Football
Or FIST for short.

many good childhood memories on this. Had our on a hard board back and most evenings had it on the kitchen table.
Must have had 50 teams, stands, floodlights the lot.
Used to play tournaments with my brother.

PES 2015 is supposed to be the best one for years and better than fifa, just doesn't have the licenses and presentation.

He loves FIFA on the PS4, he wants Subbuteo and I'm seeing it a possible way of getting him away from the tv over the winter months.

PES is pretty much dead nowadays, that contest was over a few years ago!

The CHILD in question would probably much prefer FIFA or PES on an Xbox or PS4. Don't be a tight lunch!
