Combining football with a war film, that's genius! There is one film (loosely) based on football that, for me, stands out above the rest; Escape to Victory. Not only does it have Michael Caine and Sly Stallone, it also has real footballers! Bobby Moore, Ossie Ardiles, Pele and John Wark (!!!???!!! what???????).
Here's a trailer to the film if you haven't seen it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fHy-F_Y530
"Escape to victory; you've never seen anything like it"

Here's my new kit for next season.
I haven't done much painting throughout the past month; I've been far too busy winning the double in my local subbuteo league (league and cup!)
I realised I'm only about half way through painting up the required teams, so I've had a bit of a mad flick of the paintbrush to try and get a few more teams done before our tournament at the end of May.
Here's how they've turned out
