Michael Sheen is a fucking class actor and it looks like he's taken the role quite well.

 

Looks good in prospect - you can imagine the quote about fighting Ali coming straight from Brian.

Book is brilliant and can't wait for this. Love the style it's in if the trailer is anything to go by.

 

Another book adaptation coming this year is "the Road" by Cormack McCarthy, same guy that wrote "No country for old men".

 

Defo worth looking out for.

Legend.

 

A few things O'Neill mentioned and that we could do with at Newcastle:

 

i. The manager should run the club

ii. The players should want to play for the manager

iii. There should be a fantastic team spirit

 

Frankly, we don't appear to have any of those nowadays.

watched the documentary and having not had a great deal of exposure to clough in the past I found it interesting but god did I hate how they'd done it with the dark backlit interviews and stuff

 

it seemed like it was a documentary made right after his death it seemed to be mourning him rather then celebrating him

The Book has took a pasting on that Clough documentary. :D

 

However I'm not fussed as I read the book and enjoyed it before any mention of a film and I wasn't particularly aware of factual accuracy or critical acclaim.

I think the last two are very possible under Shearer, but I don't think the first is at all possible under Ashley
