"The Keeper"

[Newman Noggs]

Has Der Spiegel reviewed it yet?

They've been very quiet of late.

 

[Gary James]

If all goes to plan there will be a feature on this in The One Show tonight (Wed), part of it filmed at my Trautmann talk last week.

 

[Ric]

Hopefully going to see this tomorrow night, looking forward to it.

 

[Plain Speaking]

Is it coming out on general release locally soon?
I promised to take my family and Dad. He loved Bert. We live in Altrincham but would travel to Manchester. St Helens is not very convenient.

Bob Wilson had a lot of nice things to say about Bert in the mail. Says Bert was “the greatest man I ever met”.

Brilliant that!

Went to see a preview in the Printworks on Monday night.
It was a very enjoyable film, about Bert, not about City. After all we’ve no history.

Did it not really concentrate much on City?
(Or have I missed your sarcasm there?)

Did we win the cup in 56 or did they change the script to have Birmingham win it?

Like with that Clough film that had Leeds winning the title in 1968?! Wankers

Don’t want to give too much away but there was no intended sarcasm.
The film is very much about Bert, his war life and how he became a footballer in England.
There’s not a great deal about City, its a biopic about him, but i found it enjoyable and heartwarming

We did and, surprisingly it is shown, even though you’ve put a spoiler there for everyone in your post to ruin the end.

Well I could have told everyone what happened to Bert in the final but I didn't want to stick my neck out.....

Just like many others who were there(the opening off the New Kippax)& Bert being driven in that golf buggy)
Thought neck-break 2 when it nearly tipped over..

 

[lefty goldblatt]

Waiting for it to come on.
Hope Bonnie Tyler doesn't go too near a radiator

And they had a feature on William Harrison Ainsworth later on. A name you'll no doubt recognise.

Would you say it follows the book by Catrine Clay - Trautmann's Journey?

I read it a while ago, and I've just listened to the audio book in the car just to refresh my memory of his amazing story.
