June 10, 20224 yr Brothers In Football. The story of Corinthian Casuals in London being the 'father' of Brazilian giants Corintians. Best football documentary I think I have ever seen. What those plumbers, bricklayers and painters must have felt being welcomed by 30,000 people at Sao Paulo airport and playing in front of a packed stadium must have been indescribable. Thousands of Brazilians making the pilgrimage to Corinthian Casuals home games too. Skriking in a bar in a demountable in some muddy English field at the realisation that they are visiting where it all started for their club. Brilliant documentary.

June 10, 20224 yr One Night In Turin is alright although Gary Oldman's narration is a bit ham and actually spoils it a bit. The book is 1000 times better would recommend it to anyone. I'm a sucker for anything about past tournaments so the ITV one about 86 that got some of the old players back together was decent and any of the multiple ones about Euro 96
June 10, 20224 yr Not a documentary, a comedy, but if you're of a certain age the number of references they put in will jog the memory as much as a doc would. Fairly ropey quality vid, but that's to be expected as I don't think it was ever repeated or released on dvd etc. Which is a pity as it is brilliant! Pick a time you can watch it all in one go and revel in 1970s nostalgia
June 10, 20224 yr 'The game of their lives' about the 1966 North Korean world cup team was a belter. One of them bursting into tears at the mention of Kim Il Song with "I miss him so much" was a bit of an eye opener. The world cup films on Amazon are good viewing to, particularly 74 and 78 for me.
June 10, 20224 yr The World Cup: A Captain’s Tale, starring and largely funded by Dennis Waterman - don’t think he sang the theme tune though…. On You Tube or DVD direct from West Auckland FC club shop.
June 10, 20224 yr For pure nostalgia for anyone who watched football in the 70s and early 80s this is an excellent Granada TV documentary and my favourite has to be the 3 part BBC 2 series "Busby Shankley and Stein" narrated by the excellent Hugh Mcilvanney Here is a link to part one

Not available, the cunts.
