My other teams are Notts County and St Mirren because I had them as my subutio teams back in 1953. . black and white striped shirts so it meant I could compete in both Scotland and England subuteo league .We had a full length pitch , and our old feller made us a stand out of matchsticks .

You could have included Newcastle United and Grimsby Town -tho' the Mariners wore red socks most times- and a nod to Juventus who still wear black shorts when white shorts clash on away games and their shirts had a Notts County connection (I forget what), maybe the County gave them some. I somewhat recall that a few years ago that when Notts were celebrating one of their anniversaries-as the then oldest English league club (now it's Stoke City), Juve sent a team over to Meadow Lane for a commemarative friendly.

NERVY-OWL Â Â 195 #28 Posted October 5, 2021 Well we won. Not a fan of the competition but getting to the final could get us up to 1 million in prize money and other revenue so probably worth getting as far as we can. Wiped the smile off ex blade Quinn aswell so not a bad night's work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
