Finding Jack Charlton

[rudebhoy]

Watched this tonight. What a great piece of film making. Lots of terrific footage, some brilliant humour and a few sad bits as well. It's a great tribute to a fantastic bloke.

Thoroughly recommended.

Which channel?

It's on Amazon and Google Play, its a fiver to watch it. Apparently it will be on BBC later in the year.

- edit - it's also on the Sky Store.

I remember him back in 1976/77 hosting a coaching program for young lads. Each week he would focus on a particular position and technique.
As I was a keeper, I remember tuning in each week in anticipation of it covering goalkeeping.

Great show the kids looked cold all in round neck shirts and the only one who wore gloves were the keepers. Great times

Just thought I'd revive this thread as I have just finished watching this programme. If you haven't seen it yet, I'd recommend it. It's a brilliant piece of film-making. Poignant, emotional, and gives an insight into his character. I really enjoyed watching it, albeit with a couple of tears in my eyes.

Agree, it was very humorous in parts and sad in others.
