Bert Trautmann Story....

Thanks for that, watched it last time but forgot to record it. Going to record the repeat.
 
Just read the book. Brilliant read but more about a youngster growing up in Nazi Germany and then war time and post war time experiences than about football (Bert doesnt join City until about 30 pages from the end).

Its a very balanced story, doesnt make him out to be a saint and he's clearly a very complex person. But he certainly went through some horrendous experiences.
 
Those Birmingham Shirts in the 56 Cup Final were well shiny shiny! Never noticed that before

Missed half of it when it was first shown a few months ago
 
Re: The Bert Trautmann story

on a related theme I wondered if anyone knows if Berts story was ever turned into a film?
I remeber watching an interview several years ago with an actor saying his next project was to work on a film about one of his footballing heros which was Bert as he was a city fan. Like I said it was a few years ago and I think the actor in question was warren clarke checked on imdb but nothing mentioned.

It would without doubt make a brilliant film, but if it was fiction would anyone believe it?
