Half Man Half Biscuit - All I Want For Xmas Is A Dukla Prague Away Kit

Birkenhead's finest Tranmere supporting poetic scallywags at the peak of their powers. If you haven't already got all their stuff, you should at the very least treat yourself to the CD reissue of Back In The DHSS... a total classic! Who can forget ditties like I Hate Nerys Hughs, 99% Of Gargoyles Look Like Bob Todd and Sealclubbing. Plus it's this, Trumpton Riots and 1966 and all that too... Yer know yer want to.

Not sure 86:25 is half time (although I do have CDO)

@JohntheShorts - not sure this post is pedantic (although I do have SARCO)

Absolutely superb, although the football shirt in the main pictures is from Dukla Prague's old home kit - the colours were reversed (as on the Subbuteo kit in the video) for the away kit. I got the away shirt some years back from a website when it came with a a free copy of HMHB's classic "Away Kit"/ "Trumpton Riots" single. Erm...I'll get my coat!

[MarkRevival]

@ArthurNibble Coat? Yer mean anorak... lol. I couldn't find the away shirt on google images unfortunately, and my inherent laziness compelled me to make do. But well spotted than man, there's a Crackerjack pencil on it's way to you.

Top Marks! Saturday morning, hungover the wife is out, I have the kids running about, going mental. I log in to youtube type in HMHB click on recently added and this ditty comes up. There is a God.

A sausage butty and HMHB - a gauranteed cure all!

I got here from watching Oasis, seeing a subbuteo table in the video 'Morning Glory', wikipediaing the history of subbuteo (I have a set in the loft) and seeing the band name in the list of people who referenced subbuteo. What about that for a chain!
