The English Game

[Scum-Triumphant]

Series on Netflix about the early days of the FA cup and a northern working class team adapting the way the game was played against the Old Etonians.

It’s a bit loose with historical accuracy but it’s very entertaining and has some football in it.

Not football as we know it though.

Sorry, forgot to mention that football 150 years ago was a bit different to how it is now.

Seen the first two, really enjoying it. As you say, a few inaccurate facts, but I'll live with them. What is true, Scotland is the home of the modern game. That's probably why they gave England a few hammerings early on.
