| Hi guys finally went back to the guy i bought 100+teams off earlier this year to pick up what he still had will post the pics of the 15 stefan corda teams I got later but was glad to finally get my heands on his subby table A lovely woodentop Liga table as used in the 2002 FISTF world cup in Birmingham - the guy i bought it hung around and bought at after the tournament had finished as you can imagine my wife was delighted when I walked in the door looking rather sheepish with it last night here it in in preparation for its baptismal game tomorrow (with 2 of the new teams Kaiser Chiefs & Gaz Metan Madias from romania) versus the Harlow Hammer himself Spurs1975)           really well put together bit of kit anyone know what these retailed at back in the day? Cheers Paul.

| That's gorgeous mate...looks stunning. Well built, should last for years.
Don't know how much they were originally.
Can i ask... Where did you get those teams from? I've seen them somewhere before, the Romanian one especially jolted my memory, but i can't think where. Really nice and unusual...
Have fun flickin8) | |

| Looks excellent, Paul. Enjoy your games on it.  The goals seem to be smaller than normal but perhaps is the fact that the nets seem to be made of metal?  | |

| Great pics and great souvenirs as I was in Birmingham in 2002. I remembers the tables were a bit smaller than usual... | |

| just measured the pitch couple of inches shorter & an inch narrower than standard 60's baize goals same size as 70's standard white goals Lee - forecast for Hitchin tomorrow is 22 & cloudy - so as long as the rain keeps off - outside it is - although I'm a bit worried about (my) players leaving the pitch & headbutting the patio  | |
