The English Game

Enjoyed this new series. Captured the mood of the times quite well. However, as a Blackburn Rovers follower and someone who went to secondary school near the home of Blackburn Olympic I found the historical inaccuracies a little annoying at times. I suppose it did its job in displaying the development of professional football in this country well - but not the progression of the two Blackburn clubs and Darwin.

Bravo for choosing a production that is not only beautiful to look at and we'll made, but also deserves a Credit line simply for its Beards!A show that may or may not be a Footies fanboys dream but a slice of life inhabited by interesting people and some new History (to me) along with the costumes and characters that round it out. I suspect fans looking for hours of pitch may be less than excited but it is more than Downtown Abbey.

Started out slow but turned out very entertaing pop corn drama at its best 😊🤧😷😊

I was really impressed on how netflix created this. A second season would be hard to make with the same characters (altough i think they where all perfectly casted). But for season 2 i hope they jump for a decade and do something simular there. Ive read in 1 off the reviews that it is not historicly correct. being non english that is a bit of a shame for me since i really tought the history aspects are interesting. But since i knew i was watching fiction this only cost them 1 point Very good serie and i cant wait till season 2.

Not enough football to be a good sports movie, but I still enjoyed it. My wife loved it and anyone who likes PBS shows will enjoy this. I would give it a 7 and my wife would give it a 9, so I chose 8. It's a bit too neat and today for me, almost Disney-like, but overall I would recommend it.
