My favourites are still the MVV and NEC Nijmegen kits (reference numbers 88 and 89 respectively). Need around 30 to complete 1-100...

My favorite game as a kid.
Had loads of teams - even the 4 dim floodlights and tiny cameraman stand which my Dad stood on...
I can recall all the broken players - which I re-glued on the mantle piece as though it was yesterday.
Spent hours on end playing out all the then 1st Division fixtures throughout season taken from the Football Monthly and creating my own table with the "Shoot League Ladders Tabs" Those were the days.....

feel the desire to own a box and the players again...the keeper always broke ... Q. big ball or small ball?

Dependent on condition of players, box with reference number, colour of bases etc

Good condition, reffed box, blue bases probably £25 on ebay. Superb condition £40+. There are a few on there now.

Ref 16 Arsenal "Zombie" team by the looks of things although could be 232 as well (although they should have red socks).

Zombie teams not that popular overall, short lived although there are some people who collect them. Does the box have a reference number?

The bigger balls are better.
