    Are there some Subbuteo-fans trying to kill a Subbuteo police-officer?

    Dave MacKay with Terry Venables in the background. 1966 (?)
    Mackay claimed that Bremner was targetting his already twice broken left leg which prompted this little altercation (by 1966 standards)

    Proper hard man Dave Mackay. At the end of an already illustrious career Brian Clough took him to Derby and he carried on for a while with them.

    Many years ago I called on Subbuteo in Leeds for a business call. Think it was part of Waddingtons games. It was the time when we had one white stripe down from the shoulder of the shirt. My lad had been trying to find the shirt for ages. I told the bloke I was meeting and he took me into their store room and showed me the array of strips they had there. Anyway I got the Barnsley strip and my lad was well impressed. Course they were plastic and not tin like in my younger days.
