Not seen them before either and can't find anything on google, but somebody on here will have the answer in a day or two.

Interesting to see an indoor version of this as there was an outdoor Transatlantic series from 1980-84, see wiki link below. I haven't heard of the indoor version though.

Looks like the game was played in 1990, see link below.

Patrickstar, you may be interested to know that Baltimore hammered Oldham, a top team in those days, 6-1.

Just having a breather from the family gathering and thought I'd post a bumper sticker I acquired from 'god knows where' sometime in the distant past.
