      What an atrocious badge redesign. Looks like he's trying to work a bit of chicken that has got stuck down his throat.

      What was wrong with the old/current crest? Instantly recognisable and in my opinion a darn good badge.

      It’s like a campaign badge for more defibrillators......

      I've seen the inspiration for that Leeds badge somewhere before!!

      So some marketing company has pocketed a few grand and lazily just remembered this game and thought "ah F**k it........it's only leeds"

      On Sky Sports, when they do the line ups at the bottom of the screen when each half kicks off, makes that stupid 'whoosh' sound each time it shows another set of players. Really gets under my skin.

      Good point actually, it just adds to sky sports seediness.

      Superb. The hours wasted in the early to mid 00s on Pro Evo was unreal. Pro Evo 2 was sensational and then Pro Evo 3 was simply the greatest football game ever.

      Ach you youngsters missed out on Subbuteo.

      It’s not a football game unless you can snap the base of your mates CF when he scores against you!

      Indeed it does...though from experience not when the clock is reading 80 mins into a match.

      Striker was better where you pressed the player's head to kick the ball.

      Timekeeping. It shouldn't be in the refs hands, had games this season that have barely passed the 45 minutes mark, for the ball being in play.

      What a great game. We used to have a league at school, cup draws the whole 9 yards.
      In fact if I had put as much attention into my school work as I did the Subbuteo, I might have done a tad better ;D.

      Ha ha same,good times indeed with subbuteo,the amount of stuff you could buy for your set up was brilliant  ,floodlights ,scoreboard ,seating ha ha.
      On a side note I Was disscusing subbuteo with my dad and he used to play it's precursor 'newfooty'he told me the inventor  was apparently from Liverpool so im wondering if that is why he used the word 'footy' instead of football?.

      Memories oh to be young again  ;D.
      One of the lads in our league was a huge Wolves fan and when it was your turn to play him round his house, second half you always got the end in his lounge that had the gas fire, needless to say it was always on when you were at that end, and trying to not get a scorched backside and playing was difficult, probably why he was unbeaten at home. Halcyon days................

      Think i might start a new thread called "The Little Things in Football that make you smile" ;D

      Couldn't really get into subbuteo although there was a couple of kids round our way growing up that used to have mini tournaments during the winter round their house when it was too cold and dark to actually play footy outside.
      I remember jumping up after scoring and falling on top of one of his floodlights and snapping it in half. He started crying and his Ma went nutz and threw us all out ;D
      Some of the latest accessories you can get for subbuteo nowadays are a bit over the top though, saw this :o ;
