Red shorts as well, just like the good old days!

Plus...you could always keep Chris Senior on standby as a substitute for when you accidentally kneel on your centre forward.

Just think of what tremendous fun you could have flicking all of these players back into your penalty area when your opponent gets a corner....

Think they have got this wrong.........this is not Altringham and neither is it Altrincham.............in the classic heavyweight subbuteo figures (ie circa 1968 to 1975) this is Grimsby Town.

Coincidence this really, I was telling somebody earlier tonight how I got £36 for Cambridge from American collector, but got sod all for Weymouth because I did not realise it was in fact Weymouth (rare) until money changed hands

Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.

You have to be a league team to be in Subbuteo... Hence why I enjoyed the Dagenham and Redbridge song a few years a go... Plus Aldershot sung it this year.

Grimsby was Black & White stripes wasn't it?

It would be nice if you could get some appropriate Subbuteo accessories to accompany this boxed team such as:

(i) a miniature Dennis Birch that you could flick up and down one touchline;

(ii) a miniature Kenny with a pie in one hand and a radio in the other;

(iii) a miniature Justin Bowler in a club blazer to place in the main stand for each game;

(iv) a miniature Brian Flynn to flick down the main stand steps and annoy the home supporters when we equalise at Oxford United.

Any others?

A miniature GH turned away from the pitch with his fist up in the direction of the fans
You could get a Subbuteo cricket team to be the Australians watching the match
