Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

purpleyaks I have seen this movie many times and it never fails to impress with its accurate reflection of the times. The actors are all spot-on, especially the younger ones. I was a young girl during this period and can guarantee that this was how it was for us. I watch it these days with a sigh, remembering that in those days, life was so straightforward for us. Danny Blanchflower, Bill Brown, Peter Baker, Ron Henry, Maurice Norman, Dave McKay, Cliff Jones, Bobby Smith, the late John White (tragically struck by lightening whilst playing golf) Terry Dyson and Les Allen - these were legendary names when being a footballer meant a devotion to the sport rather than to one's income. Plus, it's always wonderful to revisit Spurs when they were Giants! (Once a Spur - always a Spur!) This movie for me is a companion piece with Jack Rosenthal's "Ptang Yang Kipperbang" which was also based on young teens of that era. (and was also superb)

kerriehitchcock I remember watching this on Channel 4 when i was young.I really loved it and I watched it so many times that i knew it word for word and even started to eat brown sauce with every meal.unfortunately the video tape wore out years ago.As a Tottenham supporter I may be a little biased but I think that this is a wonderful film reflecting on the days when football was at it greatest,and watching it through the eyes of a young girl gave an insight to how life really was like in the 1960s.I would certainly recommend to anyone that they watch this film regardless of which team they support.I am trying to find a copy of this film and I look forward to watching it again with my own children.

Shempz I saw this once many years ago on Channel 4, and was mesmerized - it hasn't been on since, but luckily I tracked down a timecode copy! The film itself sums up perfectly what it is like to support the greatest football team in the world. The 61 Spurs Double side that played with a style never before seen or matched since. The film centres on Julia and her friends who follow passionately Spurs through this historic season, and it culminates in their attempts to watch the FA Cup Final. The acting from the cast is superb, and it both funny and emotional. If ever this is on TV again, I recommend that you watch it. I just wish I was alive during the Glory Glory Days to experience it as well.

kevin c What can I say. A film about supporting 'by far the greatest team the world has ever seen', and one of the finest players ever to pull on a lillywhite shirt.Aside from my bias, it's a little British movie that only GB can make. Touching and funny, it perfectly captures the joy and pain of being a teenager.Bring back Monday lunchtime FA Cup draws.
