Always enjoy working with Subbuteo enthusiasts. André @TheHybridMan1 has dedicated so much time to making brilliant custom figures over the years - super happy our work is part of his amazing collection 🖤🤍

Brilliant World Cup write-up by @Liberoacademica

There was agony, ecstacy, controversy, and ultimately, a whole lot of flicking fun. A weekend in #TunbridgeWells for the @FISTFWC2024, for @HoppersGuide. Photos by @sashaclicks #Subbuteo #SubbuteoWC24 @EnglishSubbuteo @SubbuteoCollect @FISTFWC2024 hoppersguide.com/when-football-…

@Neilwright1971 @theamelia_tw Worth the trip. You can go full nerd and pop down to the plaque at the original Subbuteo factory building too

For Subbuteo fans, the exhibition at @theamelia_tw is an absolute dream! 3 visits in 3 days 😅 Peter Adolph's origin story, seeing the protypes, how far the game has come, the lives Subbuteo has touched, super inspiring. Loads of fun playing on the table with other visitors too!

Such a cool little coincidence to have goals in my bag and that we happened to cross paths. Happy

Huge thank you to Scottish Int'l #Subbuteo player Gareth Christie @flickforkicks. We met today at the beautiful @theamelia_tw, chatted about my son's crap plastic goals... and he gave me his own handmade metal ones! Look up his shop: shop.flickforkicks.com #kindnessofstrangers

@rachel_grunwald @theamelia_tw Thanks Rachel! What a brilliant Subbuteo exhibition at the Amelia. Great chatting and such a bizarre coincidence to have a set of goals in my bag - it was meant to be be! Enjoy ⚽️🥅

Geeking out, I’m at the Subbuteo house, the house it was invented, we knocked on the door and this lovely young lady answered and showed us around and they have a devoted Subbuteo display! To see you’ll have to see my next video #Subbuteo

@subbuteo_paints @SensibleSWOS Brilliant work again Andy. A man of many crafty talents!

@SensibleSWOS That's very kind! I'm a dab hand at DIY but selling them would encroach on @flickforkicks territory and they'd batter me 😆🤜🤕

@subbuteo_paints @SensibleSWOS 😂 Well, promise not to batter ME then, because we're finishing one similar for @ArgoTableSoccer at the moment! Hahaha. To be fair, he initially asked a good while back. Honest 🙃

@customflicks @GoodFlickin We handmake a quick take-down legs kit too, sold separately. Happy to suggest other mass-produced options too - Ikea MITTBACK are good for a permanent height adjustable set-up

Michael Ward@customflicks·3 Eyl

@GoodFlickin @flickforkicks Lovely stuff! Did the legs come with the table?

@subbuteo_paints @GoodFlickin Yer a gem, Andy. Such a niche community of artists, makers and small manufacturers - appreciate we're on the same wavelength about supporting and celebrating work, whether it's for fun or for business. Much love

@GoodFlickin @flickforkicks Absolutely stunning piece of work. Gareth was good enough to share some secrets and the tables I made for myself are a direct consequence of that. Couldn't have done it without his advice. Ha s a great time using that table mate!
