The First Team

Very good sitcom, really enjoyed, would love to see a second series of this, funny in most places, would recommend

Make no mistake Damian Beesley and Ian Morris are two of our best sitcom writers. After the brilliant Inbetweeners, Siblings and White Gold it was inevitable that a turkey had to come along. With the exception of Mike Bassett for some reason comedies about football never work. Which is strange when you consider the material you have to work with.

Despite the best efforts of the two writers the gags just don't work. Which is a real shame as I was so looking forward to this series. Far more sitcoms fail than succeed they are incredibly hard t write and I'm sure Beesley and Morris will be back.

First 2 episodes are utter drivel, but gets better and funnier. Last episode takes a turn for the weird though. Would watch if they make a second season.

Cannot understand all the people giving this a 1/10. Is it as good as the inbetweeners? Of course not! This has some real funny bits, good characters and based around football. What more is there to like?

The First Team

Definitely written for a knowing football fan audience, I think this was very funny and even more so if you are football fan.

Great comic acting, great timing, great script.
