STEVE 0-1 MITRE SOCCER LITE BALL

Advantages: GOOD SOLID BALL - STAYS IN THE AIR - BOUNCES WELL - TRUSTWORTHY BRAND
Disadvantages: TAKES A WHILE TO PUMP UP - WOULDN'T RECOMMEND TO USE BARE FOOT

...want to do with a football. It is a very durable ball as I think we had about 15 balls in total in training and they used to get bashed against railings, plucked out of hedges, ran over the odd few times and still be able to use them for training. Mitre is a great brand and have produced some great footballs over the years with hardly any competition until the past few years when Adidas, Reebok, Nike and other well known brands have been manufacturing footballs used in competitions like the Premiership, La Liga & The Champions League. I'm not really sure what else I can write about as its a football - you kick it so you get the jist of how it works ha! If you have any questions or anything you want to know about the ball feel free to comment and I'll update this review....

Review of Mitre Soccer Lite Match Ball

Mitre Malmo Training Football Review

Advantages: Very cheap, good value for money.
Disadvantages: Heavier and not as well made as some of the newer balls.

...The version of this ball that I have is the Orange Malmo, Size 5, so opinions are based on this ball, I cannot vouch for any of the other sizes/colours. I bought it from Newitts for about £5.50 inc P & P. The ball seems fairly durable, though the stitching is more exposed than on a lot of the more expensive new footballs, so I would guess that after a while of playing in the wet the stitching would become weak, though have not subjected it to water to prove this. If looked after well I cannot see a reason why this ball couldn't last for quite a few years. The ball feels fairly heavy compared with some of the new Nike and Adidas balls, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing; it depends on your preferences. If you are looking for a cheap football to practice with and have a kick around with your mates, then I would say this ball is...

Review of Mitre Malmo Training Footballs

Outstanding, an absolute must, Mitre Revolve Footballs

Advantages: Perfect weight and power
Disadvantages: Design and durability

...I'll get stuck in, I have honestly NEVER played with a ball anywhere near as good as this. I was lucky enough to be given one of the balls used in a recent Burton Albion game by a friend of mine who was one of the match officials. They are outstanding. The ball is light, but still allows you to maintain direction without it seeming to float away from your intended target. I must admit, I don't think that they look particularly good, I myslef am a fan of the Mitre V's that have been on their range of footballs since 19forever. But this does not matter a single bit, as when you come to play with the ball you don't need to admise the design, you simply 'feel' it. They are however unfortunately not particularly durable. Granted they are not supposed to be used on concrete, but the slightest usee can tear the synthetic coating...

Review of Mitre Revolve Football League Football

Ideal match ball

Advantages: cheap, excellent durability
Disadvantages: none

...I currently play for a team called LM United in the Kingston and District League based in Surrey. It is a requirement of each team to have two high quality matchballs ready for use before each match. The balls that we use are of the 'Mitre Max' variety and I have no complaints about them. The Mitre Max is a FIFA approved football, infact one of the most popular FIFA approved footballs on the market. It is made from high quality PU leather and features a 26 panel design. We bought ours online for around £20 each so they are of mid-range price wise but offer top performance. You can purchase the mitre max in either a size 4 or 5 and can use them on both natural (grass) and artificial (astroturf) surfaces. I would definately recommend the mitre max to anybody who is thinking of buying a decent football for their team as it has excellent...

Review of Mitre Max Football

The Murky Mitre of Manchester

Advantages: Central location
Disadvantages: Rude receptionist

...available were coming cheap. As an arch capitalist who is a firm believer in the supply and demand philosophy I had no real objections to being charged over and above the normal rates though I was still against paying unnecessarily over the odds for just one night. The Britannia, for instance, a three star hotel close to Piccadilly in central Manchester where I had stayed on my previous visit, wanted around £100 for the night. A nice hotel the Britannia may be but cheap it certainly is not. I instructed Expedia to find me an available hotel rated three stars and above without specifying any specifics such as air conditioning and swimming facilities. It came up, amongst others, with the Mitre Hotel. I was intrigued by the description given of this place. It was described as being central, having thirty-two rooms and listing such amenities as...

Review of Mitre Hotel

My sleepless night in the mitre

Advantages: Close to the center of manchester.
Disadvantages: Noisy old building too close to the pubs.

...Ok so for my review of the Mitre Hotel In Manchester. Just got back from my trip in wet and windy Manchester trip was good hotel stay was less that good. But before I tell you all the bad points I'll tell you about the hotel. Location: Cathedral Gates Manchester, M31 SW United Kingdom Based right next to the Manchester Cathedral in the centre of Manchester. 10 meters walk from Harvey Nichols and Selfridges. 800 meters from Piccadilly train station 300 meters from Victoria train station. And 8 miles from Manchester Airport. Building: Lovely old sandstone style building very quaint. Two doors into hotel to reach the pub downstairs where the reception is now located. Then several narrow stairways to reach your rooms. The Room: Two single beds with fresh white linen and firm beds fairly comfy. Dirty net...

Review of Mitre Hotel

For a life that's brighter, hit The Mitre.

Advantages: Friendly, close to the river Cam, good food.
Disadvantages: No air conditioning.

...The Mitre is one of those pubs that is just, well, reliable. As one of the oldest pubs still standing in Cambridge, it has a long history of owners and functions (including a brewery and a pool hall!). But in more recent times, it's just been The Mitre: a typical English pub. So it's no surprise that the locals worried when the place was given a facelift in 2001. There was talk that it had become a supposedly "trendy bar". But it's not. The walls may be lighter, but the dark wood furnishings and grand black fireplace still exist. The staff are still down to earth and the regulars still hang around. Situated on Bridge Road, The Mitre is a short walk from the river Cam and its punt boats. On a sunny day, you can watch the passers-by with the sun shining in through the large front windows, but this can get hot during the warmer months...

Review of The Mitre

Mineral Mis-Match

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Overpriced, over hyped, poor colour range, poor application, nasty finish

...I?ve used many products from the L?Oreal range over the years, ranging from face make-up (i.e. lipstick, mascara, blusher, etc), to face and body moisturisers, self-tan products and hair-care products, and I have to say that the majority of the time I?ve been fairly pleased with my purchase. So, when I saw the very lovely Penelope Cruz advertising L?Oreal?s newest addition to its range ? True Match Minerals Powdered Foundation ? I thought I?d give it a try. I?d seen this product advertised on TV a few times over the past six weeks or so. Most evenings, there was Penelope during the add breaks, with her flawless, wrinkle-free complexion, telling me that I too could have a face like her with one quick and easy application. What they didn?t say is that this stuff is incredibly difficult to find where I live, for some reason...

Review of L'Oreal True Match Minerals

My Perfect Match

Advantages: Very even coverage, much more than you would expect from a powder
Disadvantages: Badly packaged

...this time I was going to try something new so after going through all the testers in my local Boots I settled on Loreal True Match Minerals in Golden ivory. I wasn't 100% sure of it as I had been only testing the shade on the back of my hand as you will be aware that's not really the best way to chose a foundation. But I felt at £13.99 it wasn't a gigantic waste if I didn't get on with it. (Just for the record I did spend the rest of the gift card on cosmetics too!) In a way it's a good job I hadn't checked ciao for this particular product as looking at the reviews now I am really quite surprised that people have not gotten on with this foundation at all. I think Im in love with it! It is a little awkward to use but the effect is fantastic for me. I have had family and friends tell me that I look really healthy since I started wearing it...

Review of L'Oreal True Match Minerals

Mitre or mitre not

Advantages: extensive protection to shins and ankles
Disadvantages: last seasons style, baulky and hardly a fashion statement.

...The good points about these shinpads are that with mitre you have peace of mind over the quality and durability, at a premium. These shinpads have ankle protectors which will help to protect your ankles from serious impact injuries, they will not however prevent twisted ankles etc. The good thing about them is that they are now relatively cheap and do provide you with good protection around £8 online. However now to the bad side they only have a very simple design and are nothing flash, they weigh a relatively large amount compared to more modern counterparts around 0.4kg in size large. Where their addidas equivalents weigh just 0.26kg and believe it or not these slight variations can be the edge you need to get to the ball. Especially for the slower runner for whom i would advise to buy the lightest boots and shinpads. A good pair...
