SUBBUTEO STREAKER


Soccer fans eager to make their Subbuteo table top sets (Soccer Tables) as real as possible can now add a streaker to their collection of figures.

The three-quarter-inch pitch invader comes complete with his own policeman and the company is also offering a female version.

Subbuteo's latest addition comes courtesy of Tom Taylor, owner of the world's only shop dedicated to the game.

He has drawn up strict rules on when the streakers can be deployed.

Mr Taylor, 52, from mid-Wales, said: "The streaker and the police officer must always be positioned behind the goal line.

"At any time during the match a player can shout 'Streaker' and place his or her streaker in the penalty area."

After they storm the pitch, the referee must yell "Apprehend" to the attacking player who must take a police officer and flick him or her, attempting to hit the streaker.

"If the streaker is hit, an arrest has been made," added Mr Taylor.

The naked invader can only be used by a player if the opponent has to simply tap the ball into an empty goal.
