Yeah, probably a couple months off. Takes forever to find the roof pieces.

An excellent replica of Tannadice.
Is that actual Subbuteo parts you're using to build the stands.
Reason I ask, is that I thought Subbuteo did away with a lot of their range a few year ago. 
Excuse my ignorance, no exactly an aficionado in these matters.

I found a pitch (actually getting a new one delivered with tangerine track) and then it snowballed.  Had to get all the pieces off ebay piece by piece and then work with a bloke in Holland to get some custom pieces like transparent roofing etc.  The shed end pieces are actually still in production through a company called Zuego.  The rest of it I've had to find on ebay and still a few pieces short.
I havent tallied up the cost and dont think I ever want to!

If you're limiting yourself to genuine Subbuteo parts, that's even more impressive. Good effort mate!
I had a Subbuteo team back in the 70s. Played against my mate, Ian. His team wore United's Adidas home kit and my team had United's white-black-white Adidas away kit.
His initials are IT and his team was called IT Dynamo. Sounds pretty good.
My initials are AH so I called my team AH Bisto.
Don't think I ever won a game.
class, tons of nostalgia building this. Just had a few of the teams arrive today so wont be playing against sheff united anymore
