Currently working my way through it after being put off for so long because it’s about soccer. Actually really liking it, proper comfort TV that basically has nothing to do with soccer at all.

Season 3 is on its way this spring, so seems like a good time to make a thread about it

I noticed from a friend of mine that in the filming of this season they were in Amsterdam, and the cast even did an impromptu improv show at Boom Chicago which was cool (though I missed it).

Thanks cowcow, I love a new thread, got a real vibe

I watched one episode and thought it was bad so I have voted accordingly in the polls. I wish this thread every success, however.

I did enjoy searching back to see if there was a thread already, and seeing multiple posts from you in multiple threads talking about how shit it was!

1st series wasn’t bad, 2nd one was absolutely terrible after Roy Kent left Sky Sports.

Really delightful show imo, like both seasons equally though there could probably have been a bit more football in S2. Roy Kent going back to Richmond is my favourite scene with the great use of She’s Like A Rainbow:

It stars that awful bellend who used to be the everyman in the Cineworld Unlimited Card ads they played before every film circa 2018-19

Down hill after that scene for me.

I just know it’s about football and that actor who people said is CGI is a nepo baby

housemate binged it recently so i caught several episodes but not all of them

seemed fine but i didn’t care enough about it to catch up on the eps i missed

Enjoyed the first series, second one was pretty poor. I probably only really watched it as my house mate had a free Apple TV subscription from when he bought a new phone and the fact it was filmed at Selhurst Park.

Not sure I’d go out my way to sign up to Apple TV to watch the third.

Really enjoyed the Coach Beard solo episode

Juno Temple is perfect in this

Good good fun show, actually moved me to tears at some point - can’t remember when but still, not all that many light easy watching comedies can do that

Liked S1, S2 was an absolute trainwreck.

Was recommended it was i want something nice in my life on the tele and no longer have:

  • the detectorists
  • Parks & Rec
  • Schitts Creek

to watch which are some nice chucklesome, warming tv programs to watch when i want the tv to hug me.

Tedd Lasso is ok but doesn’t come close*

*i’m near the end of s1 so it may get better i dunno

Didn’t get very far with the first episode, maybe about 20 minutes before I gave up. Might watch a later random episode to see if it seems better and then start again if it does.

The episode where the team goes to Manchester is probably the best of the series. Funny and then that emotional gut punch with the panic attack.
