Retro Round-Up: 6 September 2013

Greetings, friends, and welcome to what is sadly our last Retro Round-Up here on The Football Attic. We think you'll agree we've had a lot of fun and laffs since we started this feature six months ago and we've proven conclusively that football nostalgia is still alive and well out there on the World Wide Web.

With that positive thought ringing in our ears, let's do it all one more time with a final look at this week's top retro football picks...

...Starting with a revelatory look at Carlos Valderrama's haircut before he was famous. He didn't always look like he'd just been electrocuted, as proven by Old School Panini...

...More 'Before they were famous' fun can be found on this latest selection of old football stickers, courtesy of Who Ate All The Pies...

Over at The Goldstone Wrap, Christopher Worrall shows how easy it is to get the autographs of all your favourite players - just draw pencil sketches of them all and send your picture off to them...

...In the week when Liverpool FC and the wider world of football commemorated what would have been Bill Shankly's 100th birthday, Got, Not Got remembers the charismatic genius from Glenbuck...

...There's no doubting the football-playing brilliance of Cyrille Regis, and here he is personally dismantling Swansea City back in 1981 on another super video from FootballGaffesGalore...

...and finally, we come to our eBay Buy of the Week - probably the best one we've ever had, too. It costs £19,000 but you'll never spend your pennies more wisely - it's this truly unbelievable collection of Subbuteo equipment. Enjoy...

Retro Round-Up: 30 August 2013

Welcome, everyone, and first of all an apology for not bringing you a Retro Round-Up last week. This is due to circumstances beyond our control and Rich J being too busy laminating his front room floor.

So with that out of the way, let's get on with the not insignificant business of bringing you those all important links to this week's top retro footy on the web...

...And we begin with The Goldstone Wrap's review of a famous 7-2 win for Brighton over York in 1976, a victory fondly remembered for five second half goals by The Seagulls and a rather splendid York City kit...

...If it's great football on video that you like, there's some great material on YouTube but we doubt that you'll find many better than this superb resource collated for your pleasure by Twohundredpercent...

...Having said that, FootballGaffesGalore continues to provide a wonderful daily selection of great videos of a similar high quality...

Over at Got, Not Got, there's a long overdue appraisal of the FKS sticker range, including your chance to vote for the annual collection you like the best...

Looking for something to do, er... I mean for your kids to do during the summer holidays? Then why not take them along to the National Football Museum today where they can polish up their Subbuteo playing skills...

...and finally it's time for our eBay Buy of the Week:
Pretend you were a member of the England team of the early 1980s with this splendid cap once owned by Graham Rix - yours for just £3,000...

Retro Round-Up: 9 August 2013

The new Premier League season is almost here... but you won't be interested in that because you're a retro football fan, aren't you? Turn your back on Arsenal, Manchester United and any other clubs that can't even complete a high-profile transfer and wallow in our selection of the past week's top football nostalgia links...

There are few things as timeless as a perfectly executed bicycle kick, and Who Ate All The Pies remembers one in particular. Step forward Trevor Sinclair...

Nothing says 'football nostalgia' like an article about a Brighton and Hove Albion lampshade... and that's precisely what we get over at The Goldstone Wrap...

Football Gaffes Galore has unearthed a special 'Texaco Cup' edition of The Big Match's opening titles from the 1974/75 season. Gotta love that theme tune...

If Shoot! magazine regularly found its way into your possession during your younger days, you won't need us to explain the legend that is 'You Are The Ref.' Now it's back in book form and updated for the modern era, as reviewed brilliantly by Lantern Rouge for The Two Unfortunates...

Our article this week on football kit manufacturers might have had you wondering whether Umbro's diamond motif will ever grace English football again. If that's the case, John Devlin has some good news for you over at True Colours...

KitNerdCollection has added another football shirt to his... er, collection - it's this rarely seen blue Dutch shirt from 1997/98...

Finally, it's time for our eBay Buy of the Week: Rarely will you see such a beautiful and desirable object of football nostalgia - it's this Russian tin-plate table-top football game... and it's starting price is LESS THAN TEN POUNDS...

Speaking of bald men, what links Austin Powers, politics and the Argentina squad from the 1994 World Cup? The answer can be found at Old School Panini...

Bringing a new meaning to the phrase 'Italian football camp', Footysphere has a super postcard from the 1978 World Cup...

Dean Saunders - what a cock... Whichever way you look at it, the The Goldstone Wrap has the evidence...

Six things you probably did know about Subbuteo but are happy to be reminded about over at NewsTalk...

Another week, another selection of football nostalgia bounty washed up on the internet shoreline for us to sift through. Yes, it's time for another Retro Round-Up - your one-stop shop for the best vintage football stuff on the web from the last seven days.

Retro Round-up: 5 July 2013

Hello, football nostaglia fans, and welcome to another round-up of the best vintage footy material that's appeared on the web during the past week.

As ever, we invite you to peruse the items listed below and also send us your own suggestions for things you've seen on the web in the last seven days. So now, the good stuff...

Finally, our Round-Up last week arrived just too early to include this great clip from Football Gaffes Galore on YouTube featuring Muhammad Ali's personal message for Brian Clough. It's featured regularly on clip shows, but rarely in unedited form as seen here!

Last but not least, a polite reminder that you've got just a few days left to log your vote in our Final to decide The Worst Thing About Modern Football.

Retro Round-Up: 28 June 2013

What better way to end the week than to rummage around in the bran tub we call 'Football Nostalgia' and pull out a few choice items we've found on the web during the last seven days?

It's what we call The Football Attic 'Retro Round-Up' and it's a service we provide free of charge just because we love you in a very special way.

Two English teams playing each other on foreign soil. These days, we'd call it a 'Game 39' scenario, but Spirit of Mirko reminds us that this sort of thing has been going on for decades...

Southampton fans: What your club manager did before he got to St. Mary's - a story of lank hair and hilarious badges courtesy of Old School Panini...

Ah, how we long for the good old days when 5,000 visiting hooligans wearing the colours of their favourite team were gently escorted by steam locomotive to Hull City's ground... It really did happen (sort of), according to Footysphere...

Long before the Masters series, inter-club five-a-side football meant only one thing - the annual Wembley Arena tournament which Brighton almost won in 1979, according to The Seagull Wrap...

Anyone remember Flik-Shot?  Old Football Games and Got, Not Got need your help to find information on this obscure game given away with Trebor sweets...

Football's a funny old game. One man's downfall can mean another man's triumph, as is capably explained by Soccer Nostalgia...

eBay Auction of the Week: It's Ray Wilkins' number 6 shirt from the friendly match against Argentina in 1980 - the first time Admiral's 'World Cup 82' England kit was worn... and it could be yours for £5,000...

And that reminds us...

...you've got until midnight on Sunday 30 June 2013 to vote for your favourite England home kit since 1965. Does the Italia '90 kit light your candle or is it outshone by Alf Ramsey's simple '66 classic? If you haven't already done so, vote now before it's too late!

And if you're in the mood for making your opinion known, why not also vote for the worst thing about modern football? We've finally reached the Final of our competition and we want to know which is worse - 'Greed In General' or 'Rebranding / Ignoring club History'? Visit our Worst of Modern Football page now and tell us what you think!

Retro Round-Up: 21 June 2013

Whether your week's been good or bad, it always ends well in the world of football nostalgia thanks to The Football Attic's Retro Round-Up!

As ever, we've scoured as much of the web as the 15-minute window in our schedules will allow to bring you the best football nostalgia from the last week. Let's crack on, shall we?

It's been around on the web for a little while now, but Who Ate All The Pies bring us the long-forgotten version of the Match of the Day theme tune (with titles) that was only ever used once. 'Enjoy', if that's the word we're looking for...

The Two Unfortunates have been doing us a great service with their series of 'Hopeless Football League Teams', and here's a well-chosen Premier League addition to the canon - it's the tale of Ipswich's 1994-95 campaign, as told by Gavin Barber...

It would have been the stuff of legends: a match between two teams, one bearing the name Wang on their shirts, the other with Nobo proudly displayed on theirs... The Goldstone Wrap tells us how the greatest even in world football almost happened...

A Hungarian team with a name like a TV rental shop and a logo to match... Videoton's 1974 vintage, as featured on The Vintage Football Club...

The first public free-to-enter UK national Subbuteo competition will be held later this year, and Toy News has all the details. Go on, give it a go!

When Saturday Comes chooses Red Star Paris as the subject of its Badge of the Week - a bright star that's long since fallen, you might say...

If books containing facts and statistics about German football light your candle, check out this post by Soccer Nostalgia - you'll get plenty of decent recommendations from it...

Always keep your garden clear - that's our advice after reading this story about the lost gates of St. James' Park, as detailed by Terrace Life...

A set of nine replica World Cup footballs, one from each tournament between 1970 and 2002 - yours to buy on eBay for US$1,800...

Retro Round-Up: 14 June 2013

Greetings, retro football lovers, and welcome to another collection of the best football nostalgia stuff we could find on the web this last week. You can thank us later...

Coventry City's future may look a little uncertain at the moment, but the only thing uncertain about its past are some of the players' facial hair, as shown at Old School Panini...

Great players, a great team and a great kit - Netherlands 1974 in all their orange glory over at The Vintage Football Club...

A lovely postage stamp depicting Juventus as 'The Old Lady Zebra' over at Footysphere...

‘I had to leave Man City to get away from Malcolm Allison...'  Michael Robinson's use of ambiguous language lets him down over at The Goldstone Wrap...

FootballGaffesGalore provides us with a fine compilation of opening title sequences from ITV's The Big Match, but there's one thing we've always wondered - whatever happened to the phony guy holding the trophy at 4:43?  

Got 200 empty Panini World Cup 2010 sticker albums to fill? You're in luck! Someone's selling 216 sealed boxes of stickers over on eBay...

And don't forget...

...you've only got until the end of the month to vote on your favourite England home kit since 1965. If you haven't already done so, get in quick before it's too late! :)

Retro Round-Up: 7 June 2013

What a week it's been in the world of football nostalgia, but then again, when is it never a bad week in the world of football nostalgia?

To prove the point, here's our selection of the best retro football stuff we could find on the web from the past week or so, starting with something that we just missed out on when we published last week's round-up...

Just what does it take to refresh a team's club badge? Dotmund has the answer in fabulous cartoon form over at Twohundredpercent...

Carlsberg doesn't do 'rolling back the years', but if they did, here's how they'd get the 1998 World Cup team back together again, courtesy of Who Ate All The Pies...

How things have changed... West Ham celebrate victory over Preston in the 1964 FA Cup Final by filling the cup with... milk? See for yourself over at Footysphere...

Some magnificent pieces of football artwork rightly exhibited for a wider audience in New York, as described by Old School Panini...

We happily acknowledge the likely legends of future nostalgia here at The Football Attic, and to that end we salute The Two Unfortunates' selection for their best kit of 2012/13. Rise up Nottingham Forest fans...

While we're on the subject of great kits, check out this absolute belter from the Brighton & Hove Albion archive - brought to you by The Goldstone Wrap...

Regular Attic fanatics will know that we recently reviewed the first Admiral Book of Football, and here's Paul Bowser writing about his own edition for Got, Not Got...

Retro Round-Up - 31 May 2013

The domestic football season may be over, but the world of football nostalgia continues to turn, as witnessed by our latest weekly selection of the best the web has to offer...

Remember the days when sponsorship of the Football League was seen as something of a novelty? Does your memory go that far back? It does for The Two Unfortunates, as shown in their excellent article on the subject...

Let's all wish Twohundredpercent a Happy 7th Birthday by checking out its account of seven matches where seven goals were scored by the winning team...

Prior to last Saturday's Champions League Final, Who Ate All The Pies used Panini as the medium with which to remember great players from previous Finals...

A beautiful mosaic of football legends from the 1950's awaits when you visit Footysphere...

Meanwhile, Got, Not Got focus on 'Focus On' - Shoot magazine's regular player profile feature. Were there any players in the 1970's that didn't have Steak and Chips as their favourite meal?

Match magazine, however, tried their own version of 'Focus On' but was it a good idea to ask a player like Giles Stille of Brighton about his 'Biggest disappointment in life'? The Goldstone Wrap investigates...

The Vintage Football Club provides pictorial evidence of Czech team Bohemians from 1982/83 and, more importantly, the only known sighting of a completely red football...

And finally a reminder that we're currently inviting you to vote on your favourite England home kit from the last five decades, so get along to our online poll and choose your favourite. The winning kit will be announced at the end of June!

Wallow in a forgotten world where Roy Race was king over at The Greek Roy of the Rovers Fan Club...

Retro Round-Up - 17 May 2013

After the relentless parade of FA Cup articles we brought you last week on The Football Attic, this week's been a little quieter for us post-wise, but fortunately there are lots of other like-minded folk on the interweb that have been doing their bit for the football nostalgia cause. Here's a selection of the best we could find for your viewing pleasure.

Hull City's tumultuous promotion campaign this season prompts The Two Unfortunates to remember a similarly successful time for The Tigers back in 1965/66 - read about it here...

Double Diamond works wonders - even for under-age kids! (Well it does if the double diamond in question belongs to Umbro, according to Got, Not Got...)

If The Football Attic isn't enough to sustain you, let this pick of the last seven days be your saviour...

It's easy to forget what a parlous state Manchester City were in not so long ago, but Twohundredpercent is on hand to remind us about the dark days of the early '80s at Maine Road...

Footysphere has some lovely illustrations that were used to promote the venues used in the 1958 World Cup Finals...
