I have a dim memory of him interviewing a teenage Jay Bothroyd on the steps of a church in Perugia. Gaddafi era? | | | |
Best Football Films & Documentaries on 14:42 - Apr 10 with 1366 views | DannyPaddox | You''ve nailed it Isaw. Travis is tempted by the alluring hoops which unbeknown to him will bring certain anguish and stymied goals. About to wear the hooped shirt left abandoned by the previous lodger, he is interrupted by the mysterious old man (wizard, Ralph Richardson not Roy Wood) in the next room who then gives him the gold lamé jacket of magical powers. All making sense now. Film released in 73, so presumably shot circa 72. Around the time of a great Rs promotion year. In retrospect this scene appears to warning a whole generation to be careful not to take the path of crushed dreams. Ahead of its time. The gold lamé jacket looking like a fcuking Wolves top is a bit of a wind-up though. | | | |

Best Football Films & Documentaries on 18:56 - Apr 10 with 1303 views | colinallcars | Anyone remember a TV film called, I think, eleven against eleven ? It was about a dodgy manager taking bungs etc. I've never seen it available on DVD etc. | | | |

He effectively sacks a player at half-time who from recollection had bit of a shocker, was actually on the terraces that night but I would have been very, very drunk. | | | |

Back in the day I thought it so cool, but these days it says more 'eighties game-show host'. Your observations on the imagery are thought-provoking, btw. But I still can't believe I missed those hoops at the time. | |
