What was your favourite football brand ?

[Kings93]

The Mitre Ultimax was lovely.

It was also £70 I tried to explain why I needed it but my mam couldn’t get her head round it
From a goalkeepers POV the Nike Tracer from 2011 was the nicest ball to save the pattern told you exactly how it was spinning and it was perfectly weighted, the worst though was the Adidas jabulani, I’d rather have played with a corner shop 50p floater

No, thicker, not like those floaty ones from Woolies that you couldn't kick straight.

Patrick footy boots - Kevin Keegan - circa 1980. Rumour was they were made from kangaroo leather - but fuck knaas what’s that supposed to do for your game?

Plus remember the introduction of the Adidas Tango at the 1978 World Cup - been my favourite ever since

 

[Kernowmac]

Growing up, the gold Mitre Delta they released for the Mexico 86 World Cup was the ultimate!

Fuck me I was just thinking of this! You could get a silver one too, but I had the gold and kept playing with it even when it got punctured!

 

[Blyth_Pirate]

Mitre and adidas tango for me. Used to hate those five a side tennis balls though.

 

[Wandofaleftpeg]
