	When Paulo DI Canio (pity he�s a fascist racist nob) came to Scotland he said that one of his first subbuteo teams was Celtic thought that was a heap of sh1th at the time and had to laugh, but seems he really might be into it from first couple of paragraphs of article below. Maybe that�s how he learned to push over a ref with one finger. http://www.oasysltd.co.uk/subbuteo.htm

	What a pile of sh1te that subbutto was! It was like the time Airfix brought out a package of FOOTBALLERS! WTF! And now an Nintendo game? Has the World run mad?

	the attention to detail was excellent but the game itself was utter pants

	Ah I loved Subbuteo, me and the brother played it when we were smaller, we had Leagues and all, played it for fckn hours and hours and bought all the accessories, fence surround, scoreboards, TV tower, throw-in figures, corner kickers, flags, World Cup goals (they were the BIZ), gotta love Subbuteo!

	The guy in that world link is ridculous. Hes about 40-50 years of age and celebrating winning a game of subbuteo like a f**kin child.

	I loved it aswell!!!! People that usually complain about games like this, or any game for that matter, only do it cos they were $hite at it!! I remember having the Rovers team and United team, the floodlights, corner flags, little stand and the old man tacked the clothe to a big sheet of wood so was a quality surface. Id rather see my young lad play this as opposed to a joypad in his hand!! Thumbs up
