Fans of nostalgia, tiny figurines and football rejoice: Manchester Subbuteo Club will be putting on a free demonstration at the National Football Museum. While fans of the human game of football balk at escalating ticket prices, you can be playing the miniature version and reliving a few old memories flicking a tiny player wherever you want to. Subbuteoers (?) from across the country will be arriving in Manchester to flex their fingers and show that table-top gaming is still popular. Pop down to show the kids how Fifa used to look back in the day, and maybe teach them a lesson or two.

Manchester Subbuteo Club meets every other Tuesday at BrewDog on Peter Street.

Sat 12 Jan, National Museum Of Football, Urbis Building, Cathedral Gardens, M4 3BG. Tel: 0161 870 9275, 10am – 4pm, FREE, www.nationalfootballmuseum.com
