From a Jack to a King premier on 18:45 - Aug 22 by jackharris | Including me my friend. I was there at the time. I've supported the club for 30years since 1984, when I was 9 years of age. |
I hope you get a mention ;-) I was away working during this time and only renewed my acquaintance with the swans in 2004, so cant say I did anything other than than hope. | |

From a Jack to a King premier on 19:27 - Aug 22 with 2551 views | Newhousemustscore | I see many are worrying how we'll be portrayed and how good it'll be. But surely if it's being made by the guys behind "man on a wire" (& won an oscar) and "senna" then I'm sure it can't be that shoddy. Also, there are some grumbles about who's not in it. Everyone who played a part couldn't fit into a film lasting 1hr 38mins. I assume the bulk of the people who put their life savings into the club will be interviewed. All they are trying to do is tell a story for cinema. | | | |

Having a vagina seems to qualify loads who went in the week. | |

From a Jack to a King premier on 22:01 - Aug 22 with 2360 views | matt_the_jack | Great film, quite emotional. Tells the story very well I thought and you're bound to recognise people you know in it from the old footage that is shown. I think I even saw a photo of OldJack at the Vetch. What I am surprised about is the fact that there is an interview with Tony Petty and his side of the story. Amazed he agreed to be interviewed, he has been invited to the premiere in London apparently - will be interesting if he does actually turn up. Obviously Martinez had to get himself on there too. All the main board members are in it and tell their story, though no Paulo sadly..... | |

I suspect you can't / won't give your feelings on here about how the film is. How much different is the story as told in the film, to that in From Graveyard to Ambition do you think? | |

Rodgers and Martinez can't fool us that easily. [Post edited 23 Aug 2014 1:55]

I can't answer that without seeing the film to be honest - had a chance to go to two different screenings and have been unable to make either of them. | | | |

There are plenty of us, who's feet touch the floor when we sit on the toilet who are not "excited" about the film. I'll probably wait until it comes out on DVD, on one sold down the pub in all honesty. As for Abi, anyone that has had a few pints in her company wouldn't be surprised by her vodka comment. She's a young girl who enjoys a drop, nothing wrong with that imo. Why was it at one point we weren't allowed to mention her on here though? | |
