Beerschot

Hi,

I'm new to the forum. I'm from Belgium and support Germinal Beerschot in Belgium and Everton in England.

I'm also crazy about subbuteo and make modern versions of subbuteo teams with the new kits. Are there any other Everton fans here crazy about subbuteo?

Ciao!
 

Welcome

I've never really played subbuteo but I'm sure there will be members who spent their entire childhood playing, they'll be along shortly so pull up a seat & make yourself comfortable
 
Welcome. I used to play Test Match, which was some random cricket game with a metal ball, it was ace. Never really got into Subbeteo, but i played it a few times.
 

Welcome to G.O.T.

I prefered a game called 'Striker' to Subbuteo , you pressed the players heads and hey presto, they kicked the ball.

falco subbuteo subbuteo

The "Subbuteo" name is derived from the neo-Latin scientific name Falco subbuteo (a bird of prey commonly known as the Eurasian hobby), after a trademark was not granted to its creator Peter Adolph (1916–1994) to call the game "Hobby"[1].

played the rugby and the cricket too as a kid.

my mum had loads of dancing trophies so we used to play for them, although we had a jules rimet, a euro and a uefa cup, i inherited a set off the lad next door and then all the others who used to play him handed theirs over too. floodlights everythin' i had lots of world cup 70 stuff. teams like zaire and all sorts.
