Got, Not Got: Which was better, Subbuteo or Striker? There's only one way to find

As many of you, the regular readers know, I've got fond memories of playing Subbuteo as a child
and still have a lot of respect and adoration for the popular table soccer game that was massive in
the late 70s and early 80s, and is still played around the world.
So I was pleased to find a new Subbuteo video recently that I hadn't seen before, which is the
one above that I'd like to share with you.
