upperwinngardensowl 2,018 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I thought it was good, but not as great as I had been led to believe. It may be a generational thing but there was too much about recent times and a lot of the ones being interviewed looked about the age of my lad. Agree about the look on that little lads face being priceless, and also agree about the overused plinky plinky sad piano music. Link to post Share on other sites

The focus on 66 cup final and league cup (28 years ago) not far enough back? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

"It may be a generational thing but there was too much about recent times and a lot of the ones being interviewed looked about the age of my lad. Its the balance that was wrong for me personally, but for my son, it would be about right. p.s. I saw it on Youtube yesterday and there was zero about the 66 cup final. The 61 season yes, but nothing on the 66 cup final. Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, yeah I did want to put in some of the ‘66 final as a couple of people mentioned it, but it was too expensive to license the footage. I was self-funding and couldn’t stretch to the licensing fee. As for the 70s and Wilkinson, I admit it wasn’t my era so wasn’t all that clued up and of all the people I chose to interview, no one tended to mention it. Maybe an oversight on the selection of candidates but I couldn’t choose all submissions and had to draw a line somewhere as I only had 3 months to get it ready in time for September 4th. Cheers for the feedback though. Will try and cover more periods if I get chance to do another in the future. Matt. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

He mentioned how heartbreaking the interviews were, and it was actually a fair, balanced comment. What a bizarre reaction. Really? he doesn’t. He thinks it much the same as any club, likes going to away games and that it was a bit poo after the derby match. me having the temerity to admit I liked is hardly bizarre.
