Philmycock Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 So to clarify, you're advertising an event for people to attend to throw away they're Subbuteo stuff? If that's a success I'll try and promote my 'Insert Connect 4 Discs Up The Anus' Extravaganza ASAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I might go along and collect the unwanted in the vain hope if finding a rare item Real Falkirk may turn up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I looked into buying a mint condition Derby County team but was told to buy Tottenham as they're the same... Sounds bad but it put me off because someone could say "well that's not Derby County that's spurs" and that would annoy me. Do you know if this is correct? Also I have the police mounted section and police officers are they hard to find now? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Depends on the era, blus or black. When I was a kid teams were sold by general colours and the label would say spurs and Derby County. I think we got linked with Fulham when we went back to black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansea ram Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Looking at a 1985 team chart, we were team 447. Along with Bolton Wand, Preston & Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curb Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Wasn't it around no.10, England Spurs and Derby? Apart from Derby my favourite was Blackpool. Ther'es a good website somewhere that lists the numbers and teams down the years, I might have a look when I've had me snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stive Pesley Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I wouldn't throw your old subbuteo stuff away like this. My dad found mine in the loft and sold it to a dealer as a job lot for nearly £100. I didn't even have that much, just a few teams, some goals and a couple of floodlights. It was all early 80's stuff though. Not knocking this event if it's for charity or something but watch out for people who might be taking advantage here. My advice if you have a lot of old Subbutteo stuff would be to put a free ad in the paper asking for offers. There is a big collectors market out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brammie Steve Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 i'm pro at subbuteo..i'd thrash you all !! He is anorl! Many's the night I would go to bed on a Sunday morning at 2.30am (I always made an early night at the weekend me! 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> ) leaving him and our mate Bob downstairs at home in Tutbury still playing the game and swearing entering into meaningful discussions about whether or not a Derby County (subbuteo) goal was offside. Happy days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
