@Steve sampson would love to see any old paintball video you have! Any chance you could stick it on youtube? If you need help converting a VHS I think I know a guy who can.

Steve, if you fancy a meet-up then let me know.

Myself and my brother will take you out for a meal if you can get over this way anytime.
PM me and we can sort something out mate and we can swap war stories over spare-ribs sometime.

Pete

Barts were in the video too, it was 89 i think just before mayhem at finmere which i am pretty sure was the last 15 man played. Good times

hi dave yes it did start with the barts on one of there training days then moved on to us in the shop then on site playing bad company I think .
where was it when we walked off the champions and swede I think got a hot gun and knocked us down to third .

bolter yes I have it VHS would need to get it onto a CD any ideas ?

I was talking to my Uncle last night and he was saying he used to play for a team called Notts Outlaws, who had a very similar badge to another team. Played against BartsStudSquad he was saying and a team based on Penguins/A pink feather ??
He has some photos in his loft somewhere which I'll post when he finds them.
