Old Plastic Footballs

[citymacc]

I'm trying to find a picture of a particular type of plastic football I used to play with in the late 70s/early 80s. Have trawled the internet but no luck so far, it looked like the one below but had English/Scottish football team names written all over it, anyone recall it or seen a pic anywhere?

Think there was also an orange version.

That must have been a more expensive version, I only remember a white one :-)

Fuck, I can see it now. White with small red lettering?

From memory it would probably have come from Woolworths.

My fave was a Wembley Trophy ( size 5 ) - proper tough ball - smacked by that on cold bare legs or in the face and you fucking knew it Lol !!
