- Biggest Edition yet with the draw for the March Edition to win an Astrobase Starter Kit and last week's competition to win 4 Top Spin Teams.Two big features on Subbuteo Player Types and the history of Subbuteo balls plus another fab competition. Hope you enjoy it!
Brings back great memories of playing Subbuteo with my brother and cousin in the mid to late 1970s. Life seemed so much simpler then.
Coming from the patreon page just to revisit the part about balls. Really making my collection of subbuteo balls grow myself. Tango's being my all time favourite still. Using a new ball every game adds that extra bit of oomph(as Keith would say).
So far this was the most informative TFM episode. Just loved it! Thanks Keith and the TFM team.
Great show as always & I loved the development stories on the bases & the footballs !
Great show. This episode demonstrates why I love watching, you get the history and politics as well as the subbuteo.
fab show as always, do you realise you are keeping a large number of people going through this crisis just through your show. i learn so much every week wish i could come and visit the studio
love all the cultural and societal context !
I remember playing heavyweight reds v blues before my local store stocked extra teams, camera stands and scoreboards etc.
And in the power cuts playing in candlelight, one at each corner. In a duffel coat to stay warm.
Thanks for showing the foil badges Keith and the shout out. Wish I still had my original set. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thanks so much - so many childhood memories here. Casdon Soccer, Striker, Subbuteo cricket and rugby, and of course the great game itself. With my pocket money, I could either buy a 7" single or a new team. It was a tough choice...
Really cheers me up my kids even tell me when the next episode is carry on the fantastic work and stay safe.
great show once again.loved the music during the team badge section too.
Superb edition!! Always wondered why the Heavys became Lights.... and why our most loved Tango Balls is still the BEST!! Thank you Keith, Trevor and Paul!!
Really enjoyed this episode as well. Some good research.😎👍
Fantastic show Keith. You really excelled on this one. Loved the ESSO club badges at the beginning. I had a set too back then. Yours was in tip top condition. I was amazed to noticed Linfield and Glentoran were included. I wound back to see if Crusaders and Cliftonville were there but no. Nevertheless, they were fantastic badges. I am going to order Paul Lloyd’s fantastic Birmingham City’s 1970s away team after your brilliant demonstration on Subbuteo bases. Look forward to your next show.
Another fantastic episode Keith, loved the feature on balls, keep up the good work buddy.
Loving the show and the presentation is slick and professional. Interesting to find out information about our beloved Subbuteo game that I never knew. Wold be nice to see a feature on the different 'official' ball designs that have been released as well as some of the special 'custom's that have popped up for sale.
Fantastic show again! Many thanks 👍
just found your great show,really enjoying it,have bought pro action football,and hand painted 10 teams,also got my old subbuteo out of the loft , thanks for the great fun in these hard times ,thanks so much brilliant
Thanks Martin - Pro-Action coming up soon
Excellent edition mate , loved the insight on the balls, thanks Trevor. Petrol stations did used to give away cool stuff in the seventies. Noticed a nice set of A&BC orange back cards from 1970 in the background, man after my own heart Keith !!!!! Thanks again
Love those cards - it seemed every school break time was spent swapping them. Some of the guys had stacks so high you could lean on them!
Excellent show.
Love this show thanks for everything you do! Could you please do a feature on balls? Maybe the evolution, the size changes etc? Many thanks!
Great episode. Keep up the good work.
absolutely fantastic!
You are doing that so very great. I hope to see Danielle and Smiffy again, soon. During the last show you told us that every Sunday morning you and Smiffy meet to play Subbuteo. Is it possible to show a match between you and Smiffy? I think that would be lovely...
It is ages I thought or played subbeteo but great to see it again. I remember when we were kids we always had discussion if there were rules of legal and illegal flicking but we never came to any consensus.
This is the absolute best.
I love all the tables. You are to Subbuteo what the All England Club is to tennis.
Good opening theme tune - but surely it should be All I Want For Christmas Is A Dukla Prague Away Kit by Half Man Half Biscuit?
Forgot about that tune in my earlier comment... nice one 👍
first time visit....wow!!! memories!!!
These are great shows. But 1 recommendation is could you add timestamps for each segment. I can't always watch each ep in one sitting and I lose my place. Cheers
excellent edition!
Best subbuteo show ever.Greetings from Crete..Smiffy and Danielle where are you???
Fantastic stuff. Really enjoyed the ‘exploding balls’ segment. I was talking about your channel last night and a couple of the guys had never heard of Striker but all were aware of Subbuteo. Then I started singing ‘My perfect cousin’ by The Undertones and had them all singing along. Your theme tune is a catchy little number and reminds me of the afore mentioned classic song. Does anyone know of anymore Subbuteo references in, well anything really,? Maybe you should get the lead singer Fergal in for a game? Thanks for all the research which made for a well informed episode .
One of the best editions (sorry Smithy and Danielle). Thanks!
I'm struggling with spinning my lightweights, but it's only been 2 days. My used set came with 3 Tangos, so I got really lucky there!
So informative ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow, that was a hard one this week.
My misses was scared I was gonna be up all night. Couldn’t let it rest.
Apparently I was huffing!!!!
Greeeaaattt show as always matey
Love it :). Thanks for watching it through
Great show once again Keith. Although I still can't stand that nasty hollow "clunk" sound that lightweights make when they connect with the ball...give me the unbeatable HWs any day of the week. :-)
Awesome!
Love the show, but my Mrs. isn't a fan as I seem to spend more time with all things Subbuteo than spending time with her...I guess I need to find a better balance, or get her interested in Subbuteo
I seem to remember having a good game playing subbuteo with a striker football try it
As ever, superb! As a Super Striker fiend, what's the game on the floor at 30.45 - says Five a Side - is it the mini big league variant? Keep it up and let's hope Smithy and Danielle are with you again soon!!
Hello Michael - yes it is. Mini Big League 5-a-side. The plastic pitch is horrible and more akin to football on ice!
Fan of the show. Is that right that the goalposts are behind the goal line rather than on it? Personal preference? I see it quite a lot
In the intro at 00:24 - which game is that with all those figures on the pitch? Subbuteo: I remember I had players to kick corner and throw-in's. Could you do a review of those?
W O W !!!!!!!!!
Hello, I'm a boy from Portugal, I loved your video as always. I and my father love to play subbuteo but we always end up arguing because when shooting on goal it ends up leaving its position and we couldn't know if it was a goal or not then we were upset with each other. They could offer two metal goals to not create so much confusion. I would be very happy if they invited me, a hug from Portugal.
Hi, JP.
Perhaps you and your father could pin the goals down using some thumb tacks?
Watching the episode from April 20,I play solo,but I control the keeper as welll
Whilst I do like the HWs - the LWs do spin well
Where can I buy these balls? I’m from the states.
Only watched as far as the entrée. Interesting to see that Leeds won their first-ever FA Cup - ironically in the Centenary Final - hence the fact they're not one of the coined teams
True - first replayed Wembley Cup Final lost to Chelsea and 73 lost to Sunderland. Untouchable in those years
@@TableTopYears my mum wouldn't let me watch extra-time - but then woke me up with a bit of paper saying they'd lost 2-1; deeply affected at the age of eight. Sunderland defeat was s game they were never going to win. Only just won the title in 1974 and had Man Utd to thank for beating Liverpool - Jimmy Rimmer - give him a knighthood.
@@ROWZED22 czcams.com/video/kyaJx3Fgdws/video.html Happy days oer't Pennines ... UTC
The Leeds coin is the gold one for the 1972 win its quite easy to find in truth and sits at the top of the display?
@@ROWZED22 I thought Leeds ran away with it in '74?
I’ve watched all your vids and love them 👍 But I was wondering as a fellow tuber would it be better for you too break your vids up into smaller segments . So your watch time duration would be longer and you could spread your vids over the month ⭐️👍😎
I was thinking of a similar approach but once I started watching this episode the hour just flew by. 6.30am -7.30am. Coffee, & Subbuteo... sorted.👍
Anyone can name the title of the song during the esso giveaways show at the beginning of the episode please?
It's called Inevitably Raining and it's one of mine.
@@TableTopYears many thanks
I was sure the tale was going to end with you winning the tennis tournament!! Gutted....
Yep...and to think I forked out for a Bjorn Borg headband!!
Thankfully you ignored those bloody horrible sponge balls. 😂
no love for the photo reals then haha
music 2,55? thanks
It's called "Inevitably Raining". It's my composition and recording. If you'd like a free copy email at info@tabletopyears.com
Can I buy this ball stand anywhere 48:14
