Just talking to an office mate and explained this football game I played as a kid with my brother (I'm 49)...HANDS DOWN THE MOST FUN but I haven't it in over 35 years. I think I will need this in my life again. Thanks for the video.
Greatest game I ever played as I kid and I grew up playing the very first Fifa and have seen it's whole evolution (still love it). I remember having some v old teams, Peru in an old school box, god knows where that is now. I reckon it may have been worth something.
It was gems like the original mega drive FIFA that stop lots of us playing Subbuteo I think. I've got Peru side from the 70's very popular side in Subbuteo
Watched this as I got my boy a set for Christmas and I haven’t played it in so many years I forgot the rules - if he likes it it will give me an excuse to get my old stuff out of my parents loft, so many happy memories looking back to the teams I used to have.
@@SubbuteoCollector yeah already spent more time that I’d like to admit looking at the stuff I can remember - can’t wait to see what’s in the old man’s loft
@@SubbuteoCollector I know I had some interesting bits - 2 very old 60s teams (Southampton & Chelsea). A Tottenham purple 3rd kit from the Klinsman era. Mostly looking forward to what teams I’ve actually forgotten I had
I just bought this game for my son for Xmas. This was an excellent explanation to the game..I want to know as many ins an outs of the game as possible so we can just play when he receives the gift and this helped big time! Thank you!
No problems, I really hope he enjoys the game, there is an app if loads of rules on it too... I helped make it www.englishsubbuteoassociation.com/app-landing-page
@@SubbuteoCollector Yes!!it was brilliant I bought it as a present for my nephew,played a couple of games,it was just as I remembered it. I’m going pick up something for myself now!!👍🏻
Great video,I’m thinking subbuteo will be a great birthday present for my youngest who’ll be hitting his teenage years in a few months time! Thanks again!
Just asked the mrs to get me my first set for Christmas. She’s bought me the barca set, can’t wait to play on Christmas Day. Hopefully Santa will bring me a toon squad, al be owa the moon if he does like haha. Thanks for explaining the rules, super easy to follow the way you’ve explained it. Cheers pal
Thank you so much for making this video. I haven’t bought a set yet but I found one in a vintage game store recently. I really want to buy it and try to start a league now. Thank you for making these rules so simple!
Good little video simply and plainly explained showing the way subbuteo should be played using your own rules if you want and for fun and having a laugh keep the videos coming keep safe and happy new year
Great video. I ran a league at boarding school 40 years ago. Rules were almost exactly the same. We had a referee too. And 2 fouls was a yellow card and 4 a red so we'd use a subsitute. Oh, we had numbered players. The flicking keeper was great - 4 kicks though - and could only switch back once they were in the goal area (6 yd box). Great memories. ⚽️
Hi mate, great video its great to see some people still into subbuteo i thought it was just me... Love your set up, I also collect now and have the same ground set up as you.. Thanks for video ive subscribed keep going would be good to see your collection
Nice job :) Great video. I must say I like the older advanced rules that allow a defensive flick only after the attacker is over half. That’s an easy enough house rule :)
For someone coming back to the game, great re-introduction thanks. When I was a kid, I played on the carpet on the floor. I don’t think I even played by the rules. What wooden surface did you put your pitch on as it looks smooth and true. MDF? I bought some plywood and it’s ok but flexing I think so not a true roll. Might change to an MDF. Love the channel.
Proper subbuteo on the floor. Yeah now with adult money I use 18mm MDF. Can’t go wrong with that. Really glad you love channel thanks for watching pal :-)
This is great and seen a few of your videos. I played these casual rules as a kid and then in casual leagues set up when i went to university in America. I'm thinking about starting a Subbuteo club in Cambridge but wondered if these rules are OK to play? I'm not so into the tournament rules I've seen
All about having fun when I was allowed family around we use to have games and my cousin was shocking couldn't shoot for toffee but all about having a laugh.
Welcome back to it, and I hope your enjoying. Great community around the game on social media too with loads of people coming back. Loads of different vids on the channel too. Subscribe and you won't miss any, and you binge watch me if you wanna (sounds naughty that)
Great video. I have just got back into after over 4 decades away from the game. Me and my mates used to setup a game on my mums dining room table. good times. I must admit, I'm not a fan of the flat bases and being able to take a defensive flick every time the attacker takes a flick. It just slows the game down, and doesn't let you build up an attack from your own half. The 1968 advanced rules are the way to go :)
Hello Stewart, thanks for sharing. I love the contents of yours videos (mix of knowlegde , entertaining and fun). Thanks to share your passion about this fantastic Subbuteo game. All the Best and Happy New Year.
You can't be offside if you have no defenders in the shooting area, otherwise offside moves back to the halfway line, which wouldn't work in subbuteo, in your example the last defender was on the line meaning no attackers can be offside, quite an important detail for offside decisions, great channel stu merry xmas
@@SubbuteoCollector lol, with your offside rules stu, I would put all my defenders up by the halfway line, every game would finish 0-0, thanks for replying, up the hatters
Love your videos now we're really getting into Subbuteo! Just out of interest, which match is the "golazo" that features at the start of your videos taken from... sounds like a match from the 80s?
Now you asking. I couldn't tell you what game it rom. I know I from being used at the end fo the intro to Football Italia on Chanel 4 in the 90's... ua-cam.com/video/kHXfHFNlJ_w/v-deo.html
I play a lot of games on my own,thought I'd have a look,I think the keeper should be allowed make a normal save rather than being put in a position in the goal.
Thanks, that's what I'd prefer lol. Another scenario I'm wondering about is: When you want to pass the ball, but hit accidentaly the opponent's figure, he gets posession. Now is it also the case if you hit his figure but the ball gets bounced far away? Imo then the player should get posession who's closer to the ball, but in the official rules that's probably not the case (haven't found this situation yet).
Hi just a few questions. I am watching electric football hero’s 5 aside game. In his tutorial a goal doesn’t count if the ball hits a defender. Is that the same in full size. Also, you can’t score from outside the scoring zone. If I hit a ball outside the area and it rebounds of a player inside, does it count. Watching the rules on UA-cam is a lot different to learning from a manual. Me and my family and friends used to play all the time, now I realise we played it all wrong :). Like scoring from the halfway line. We didn’t know the part where a defender can flick a player after an attacker flicks. You and others have taught me a lot. Wish I could go back and play them games the right way :) cheers
Lots to answer, so if it hits defender and the shoot was taken in the past the scoring line, its a goal. On smaller pitch all depends on what weather you want use the scoring line or not some use the half way line and yeah it can count if you hit onto a plane run the scoring area he scores.
Ready made with a board the best place is Flickforkicks, but they are not cheap. Most people make there on board with MDF. You will never get stands with a pitch either. They are somehting you build up manually hope enjoy setting it all up
Hi. No scoring this side of the line. Can I kick the ball from this side of the line and score from a deflection of a player inside the scoring zone. Thanks
Copy and pasted from Facebook… WE CAN CONFIRM THAT THE DATE FOR THE OCTOBER 2022 SUBBUTEO COLLECTORS FAIR IS 30TH, WE HAVE A NEW VENUE TO REPLACE THE ONE AT RENISHAW.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE A TABLE, PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE. THANK YOU MARK AND PAUL
I played in the early seventies and the rules were slightly different to how you showed us here, but I am not knocking these rules. The reason that I am viewing is, my ten year old grandson wants to start plying with my old heavyweights. So, one rule that I don't think you mentioned was. If a goalkeeper or indeed any player shoots the ball from well outside the shooting area and the ball hits an on side player or a defender that is in the shooting zone, then bumps off into the goal, "Does that Goal stand"?
I've never seen this game in my whole life. I never heard about it either... until Karl Pilkington said he played it as a kid. I wish I had this as a kid. It looks like it's better than Foosball.
Hi. There’s a rule I saw when I first collected. It’s about broken players. It said you can’t replace it with a spare figure, you had to glue it and put it back on the pitch. Is it the same now
These more or less seem like the rules i used to play. I remember shuffle flicking though. Never used spare for kicking as a keeper. Shame i never had any lads only 3 girls. Guess it might have to be playing with myself again
Loads of places really. If you want a new set, then amazon. Second hand lots of sites but not sure if they will send to Egypt , no reason why not, try ebay, subbuteoworld, astrobase, and subbuteolab
I always feel the yearly kits destroyed subutteo they should just sell plan red Liverpool blue with white socks Chelsea and sell teams as uniform as possible dui put price I I can get paint cheaper
👍 Used to have all 3 Football, Rugby and Cricket. Not sure if I still have or have been lost in time? The Cricket version was given to me as a Xmas present by one of my customers that I delivered newspapers to in the 70's as a boy. Think it belonged to their son who'd just left school and gone to University. Cheers mate for your reply 😀👍
My brother and I always played a version where you had 3 flicks with each man, but the opponent couldn't flick until you'd missed. I hate the 'official' rule where your opponent can just flick stuff in your path. Cheating.
It simlates real football more. there is a similar version where the defender can only flick when in there half too, very old rules set that, 60s i think. I love there are so many different versions of the rules tho
@@SubbuteoCollector I was always interested in the game as a kid but living in Canada never knew anyone who had a set! The show remarked my interest so it was great to see what it's all about! :D thanks for the vid!
It's embarrassing how bad the figures still look in the 2020s. Miniatures have come a long way in board games but absolute dog shite still in this game.
@@SubbuteoCollectorTake a look at how good figures can look from Zombiecide ua-cam.com/video/q5IY_5r8rYk/v-deo.html at around the 9:40 mark. You can get so much detail such a wrinkles on clothing and even nostrils on a figure that size. There's no reason for the joins to be showing anymore like you can see in your video at 19:20. I'm not criticising you, this is a great video, just the models they are still using.
Used to play when I was primary school age. Me and mates used to get World Cup fever and while we watched live TV games, in the background, we played tournaments. Happy days 😀

What happens if you pass the ball to a teammate and he gets hit, can he still make 3 hits or only 2?

My brother and I always played a version where you had 3 flicks with each man, but the opponent couldn't flick until you'd missed. I hate the 'official' rule where your opponent can just flick stuff in your path. Cheating.
It simlates real football more. there is a similar version where the defender can only flick when in there half too, very old rules set that, 60s i think. I love there are so many different versions of the rules tho

Doesnt make sense the ball is to big and the players should be biggers
All part of the game's charm, you can eat different size balls that all play different. it's more compliant than it should be
Anyone else here becasue Nick Frost had a little man in his hair? 😂
Black books, nice
@@SubbuteoCollector I was always interested in the game as a kid but living in Canada never knew anyone who had a set! The show remarked my interest so it was great to see what it's all about! :D thanks for the vid!
Thanks. I was just trying to think where I'd seen that before.
Is this what married men do instead of sex?
No, we do that too.
Slovenia the video
Slovenia?

It's embarrassing how bad the figures still look in the 2020s. Miniatures have come a long way in board games but absolute dog shite still in this game.
The figures looks amazing, more detail than on the kits. What’s wrong with them?
@@SubbuteoCollectorTake a look at how good figures can look from Zombiecide ua-cam.com/video/q5IY_5r8rYk/v-deo.html at around the 9:40 mark. You can get so much detail such a wrinkles on clothing and even nostrils on a figure that size. There's no reason for the joins to be showing anymore like you can see in your video at 19:20. I'm not criticising you, this is a great video, just the models they are still using.
Made me chuckle watching this video 😅
Erm, hopefully in a good way lol
The orginal fifa
Kids will never know
@@SubbuteoCollector yeah kinda sad
