the thing about John King is that he's somehow connected to the the whole Stewart Home / Karen Eliot thing (she shows up in at least one of his books) but i've never quite put my finger on it. Does suggest he's writing genre fiction the way Home did..

I don't see how you can say it was far-fetched. I thought it was very realistic. Anyone who's ever seen any football violence will recognise that the language, gestures and fighting are spot on.dynamicbaddog said:as they were out filming this on location very near to where i live, i was really looking forward to seeing it when it first came out. but i was very dissapointed - thought it was a load of predictable, boring, far fetched nonsense
I enjoyed it, has a great soundtrack too.

Must admit that I thought the 3 books were top, very true-to-life accounts, in a warts'n'all way, that really did strike a chime with me in terms of the realism of events portrayed. Thought that the film was ok as well and will probably have a watch again 2nite.
it certainly pisses on the travesty that was G***n shite, which really was the devils spawn, and the worst waste of 90 minutes i can remember since the last chelski bore...edited for sense

Had a look at it again the other week. Struck me how Danny Dyer is essentially Danny Dyer in every film that he's ever been in.
Some of the stuff in there though was rubbish. The children fighting/mugging at the beginning with Dyer narrating it saying 'I don't envy Zebedee etc growing up now' didn't look remotely convincing. Neither did the Scousers going for the two young lads when a coachload of their Chelsea mates were parked 30 ft up the road in full view of them.

wouldn't say the fighting was spot on as they actually hit each other and didn't stand there flapping their arms.

Really? Which firm are you a part of. How much exactly do you know about a very english thing, when you don't live here? They don't have hooligans in the US do they?
Anyhoo. It's a pretty poo film. The subject matter is distasteful, but in the end I just felt throughly bored with the characters and just didn't connect with them in anyway.

Having sat thru half of it again last night, i must admit that my memory was playing some tricks cos it just weren't all that really on second viewing, and didn't even make it to watch the final ruck.

I was at that one...Ref had an escort off the pitch, Wales banned from playing anywhere near Cardiff for years after that , and we had to play the Scots at Anfield
RubberBuccaneer said:
Yeah, the ref was Rudi Gloeckner, an East German, I can still remember his Hitler hairdo--the Grange End were chanting "Sieg Heil" at him throughout. He gave the Yugos a dodgy penalty and disallowed two Welsh goals. Then when the copper got speared they arrested the wrong guy and Stan Stennet testified for him in court.

When you say Speared, do you mean proper in one end out the other, Rorkes Drift Style?
