[Football] Your favourite balls

[Happy Exile]

Not the goolie kind, but iconic footballs. Seeing the new Premier League ball (£135) has made me nostalgic for kicking around a Mitre Delta.

So what are your favourite balls? I’ve got a soft spot for the Italia 90 Etrusco Unico and it’s Azteca predecessor (especially the tango variant).

[Jack Straw]

Are we talking about playing with one or the look of one?
If it's the former, me and my football playing fraternity (after trying lots of others), love a Mitre Delta Max. The Max bit is all-important.

The 80's classic. If you look closely I think you can still reed the inscription from these on my forehead. Kids today wouldn't believe how heavy these were to kick compared to the beach balls they use nowadays.

My parents gave me a Wembley Trophy ball for taking a school entrance exam when I was 8. I went to that school and lasted precisely 1 year, but i got to keep the football!

The sight of this still takes me back to the early 1970's. The fearsome slap of the Mouldmaster on a cold and damp thigh was a right of footballing passage.

I have every World Cup ball in my lifetime, starting in 1970...

The Adidas Tango - no question about it for me, totally iconic from my earlier years.
