When Shorts Were Short concerns itself solely with what was actually a very narrow window in football history when teams wore, well, short shorts. The podcast takes 1954 as its starting point, when Umbro made their first England kit with shorter shorts, to 1992, when short shorts were all but finished as Umbro's baggy shorts for Tottenham's new kit, ahead of the '91 FA Cup Final, quickly caught on.

If the shorts weren't short, we just don't talk about it.

For this New Year’s Eve show, I’m joined by Stewart Grant, who you might know better as Subbuteo Collector. Stewart has put together a brilliant collection of subbuteo teams and accessories since 2014 and has 2.29k subscribers on his YouTube subbuteo channel where right now, you can watch him working on his labour of love, the S.C. Municipal Stadium.

Daniel Ruiz Tizon’s Advent Calendar – Day 15 ‘Subbuteo’ (15 Dec 2014)

Daniel recalls the arrival of the Subbuteo Club Edition at Mayflower in Christmas ‘78, the greatest game he ever played, and how it put it him at odds with his dad.
