User Reviews

Animation featuring an all star team from Scotland

This was a cartoon series featuring a sort of all star, Real Madrid like football team that aired in Britain during the early nineties. From what I remember it wasn't too bad. It also featured a Brazilian dude who played barefoot. It had a cool opening song that went, "With the hurricanes the champion spirit is here to stay... With the hurricanes storm time is comin' to you today". Aside from that it also featured an unscrupulous team which try as it might could not beat the Hurricanes. The action was not just limited to football as the series also had some side stories involving the players. All in all it was pretty innovative as I don't recall any other cartoon based on a football team.
