Bostocks Cup

Best footy film ever.
Shown once on a Thursday night and never shown again due to legal wrangles. See where Mike Bassett England manager got its ideas from.
Thank me later

Just watched it dick, thanks for that

Loved it. Laughed out loud a few time and not much TV makes me do that. Pretty close to the mark in places. Any idea what the legal issues were?
Spoiler alert…watch the credits at the end.

Think it was something to do with ownership. Such a shame because it’s a classic. I downloaded it from a torrent many years ago. Someone claimed back in around 2004 that ITV had no plans to release it on any format but you could purchase it from their request department (cost of £180)

I thought it could’ve been to do with the seedy physio/coach.

That was funny, but it was suggested though. Bit like a carry on.

I liked it, not as good as Golden Gordon but very good.
