I Started a Subbuteo Club in Mircro Pub and it was complete bedlam. Welcome to RAS on Youbbuteo

So after much deliberation I decided to start a Subbuteo Club, I wanted to be casual, so on the advice of Alan Lee from Wobbly Hobbly and the English Subbuteo Association we went for Micropub. Check out how we did it, and what the first evening was like.
If anyone wants to get involved check the club

The club every other Tuesday in Crafty Casks in Rayleigh in Essex.

Absolute fair play to you Stu for getting that together and getting the game out there. I so wish there was something like that near me, this is what it’s all about and to get that many people involved was fantastic. Possibly your best ever video. Legend!

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Thanks buddy. Why not try and set up similar your self

[@garypritchett8136]

@@SubbuteoCollector As much as I would love to be a part of something like this, I couldn’t start it myself, have too many unfortunate distractions right now. It hasn’t been a good year!. I’m made up for you though, I’m nearly 56 years old and to see a bunch of blokes just for a few moments thinking they are 15 again & forgetting any troubles they might have is a joy. It would be a dream come true to see Subbuteo hit the heights again like it did in the 70’s, but I guess I’m just dreaming. I hope your venture into bringing it to the masses keeps on growing, I just wish you were nearer. All the best fella.

[@garypritchett8136]

@@SubbuteoCollector hey Stu, someone has got in touch with me re a Subbuteo club that meets up near me every month, friendlies, leagues, buy and sell etc. Apparently the uk’s second oldest Subbuteo club, been going since 1969!, almost on my doorstep!, guy who contacted me seems great, I’m gonna give it a go, will let you know.

[@1080pAdrenalinGaming]

Ah mate I'm glad it was so successful - nicely done!

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Thank you mate

[@martinshipman3260]

Put it in a pub and they will come! Well done Stu, keeping it fun and friendly is the way to go.

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Cheers man, pub setting just makes it better

[@ianpatterson8546]

What a fantastic video. Absolutely fantastic, what a great turn out.

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Cheers dude, couldn't believe it at all

[@Sunshine-dg7nt]

I'm liking it. 😊

[@dazclarke6832]

Well done Stu. Shame you are a bit far away for a school night as I think me an my two mates who I play matches with would have a great time . None of us are very good as we haven't played for 40 plus year until recently. You have created the perfect atmosphere well done - You should be proud mate - All the best for the future

[@namdoognomis]

We must get together some time soon Daz - if not at Stewart's venue then at yours maybe ...?

[@dazclarke6832]

@@namdoognomis For sure Simon .. I want to make it down to the Solent club at some point for my first taste of the grown up game , thats only just over an hour & 10 mins away, but they appear to be on their league games at the moment. Also in the process of a house move (hopefully before the next Stamp duty increase) Once everything has calmed down I should have a little more free time. Good on Stu for what he has done here though. Always nice when someone gets of their backside and makes an effort. We shall keep talking and sort something soon . Up the Chels'

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Cheers man. Very kind words. If you ever do wanna come down your more than welcome! Maybe do a set up near you :-)

I wish I still had my Subbuteo set, gave it to someone and never got it back, it was a 70s -80s set up man,they had so many accessories unbelievable,no one in Australia had ever seen it but all my friends loved it when I showed them how to play,ha great times.

Great stuff Stuart!! Really enjoyed this episode of the Subbuteo night. Really disappointed I wasn't at the first one.

@@SubbuteoCollector I hope so!

Good effort. Hope you can keep it going. I have a friend who lives in Rayleigh. Hopefully we'll pop along.

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Certainly hope to see you pal

[@b17marko]

Excellent stuff Stewart, I have a idea, keep the two tables for the normal play and get a training pitch for the beginners to get a feel of it on, a training pitch should not take up much extra space and allows 5/6 people to be playing/practicing at once.

[@SubbuteoCollector]

Cheers bud. it's an idea. lot of table to build for only half a pitch tho. I've banked the idea tho

[@simonalanhewes]

Looks wicked! Is this still going on a Tuesday evening?

certainly is pal. Next meet is this Tuesday coming (2nd of Nov '21. Your more than welcome, Details are all over here >> rassubbuteoclub.wixsite.com/website-1
