Got a feeling it’s gonna be on some crappy streaming service we’ve never heard of.
I have no idea how these things work, but Netflix had popular documentaries about Sunderland in the Championship and a non-league story with Wrexham. Surely this is a bigger draw than that?

PBOBE must be chomping at the bit to make this a seasonal premium-priced Albion stocking-filler shirley?

I reckon it'll be chucked on to TNT - they've got so many niche documentaries about Premier League clubs hidden away on there. West Ham, Arsenal, Villa, Everton, Wolves etc.

Doubt it. Sunderland's appeal was big club heading full throttle toward a massive car crash. Compelling viewing as it got worse and worse. Wrexham story masterminded by two Hollywood superstars with global appeal. Will take something very very good to compete with those.

Yeah you'd think this would be a really good earner for the club if it's available to buy.

Given that the trailer wasn't released by Amazon/Netflix etc I would guess it's our own thing and will just be available to buy on Prime Video.... at first anyway.
 






For those that don't listen to Talksport...

Jim White went to a media screening last night in London held at Nike's HQ. Barber and Bloom were there and recorded an interview with him.

JW mentioned that he's "friends" with Paul Camillin at the club and that the film was produced by his former Sky Sports colleague Matthew Lorenzo.

No mention of when the film is released or how we can watch it.

Sure my son told me one of his equally annoying sidekicks supports Brighton?
Do they all nick goalie gloves off small children?

(EDIT, I think you meant one of Thogdon's side kicks and not your son's!)

Wasn't the Sunderland one a behind the scenes about a club in trouble and the Wrexham one about a non league club moving up with Hollywood money?

I can't imagine a one off documentary about our club being of interest to many outside our fanbase.

The Sunderland one was supposed to be about a club rebounding from the nadir of relegation to the championship.
Obviously that bit didn't go to plan, but it obviously made the TV programme a lot more compelling.

Christ, Thogden's an unbearable arse. How did that back to front get an invite?
I personally think he's one of the least annoying YouTubers I'm subjected to! Have you seen The Sidemen? :shootself

Yes he does, I can't remember his name though. There is another YouTuber (also annoying) who also has a Brighton supporting sidekick, can't remember his name either! :lolol:
All good to bring through the newer generation though. :unsure:

Oh yeah, The Boy is a Sidemen fan.

I accept that I will never get it and it's one of those things like Tik Tok, white socks with black trainers, knowing what all the genders are now and liking Nella Rose that at least means there's a good old fashioned generation gap still and they're not all turning into a boring old fart like me.

But inviting a Bolton fan to a Brighton event that many Brighton fans can't get to? REALLY?

I think it's KSI that does my head in the most. Tbf, most of them are ok (as people) Ethan has done a lot to raise mental health awareness and they do do a big charity football match. Unfortunately I was unable to get tickets for it and I tried really, really hard! :whistle:

Thogden has only just started being nice over the last couple of seasons. He slagged off our kit once as well! :lolol:

Ditto. Had first email at 12.57 on Friday. Replied shortly afterwards. Had second email (same as first) at 5.54. Replied shortly afterwards.
Then nothing.
Sent a follow up email this morning, and had this auto response:
"Thank you for your query.
We aim to get back to you within 3 working days.

Best Wishes
