Favourite Sports films OTish

[Scum-Triumphant]

I have just been informed that I won't be able to return to the office until August so I will have some time at home to watch some sport's films.

What are your favourites? I have gone for a top 5 but I'm looking for some hidden gems.

5 - This Sporting Life
4- Escape To Victory
3- Rocky
2-Damned United
1- Raging Bull

There was one on the other day called "Those Glory Glory Days" about some schoolgirls obsessed with the double-winning Spurs side of 1961, Danny Blanchflower was in it, it was OK.
