    i 'did' 21 years in the old roker end, it was bigger than the kop, going round the back it was like a huge unfinished structure of concrete beams, tried to get tickets for the crystal palace 6th round 1976 game but failed and when the wind blew you could hear for miles, they reckon the 1961 spurs game was the loudest ever ! how much would you pay to watch one of them matches now ?. if Brian had come here i bet he would have signed Maradonna in 1977 and who knows what we would have won.

    Episode 6 - The legend of Jimmy the Greek

    I know this is a really popular one, but it didn't do it for me at all. I don't know the man, but I also don't understand why his story was one that needed to be told.

    5/10

    Episode 7 - The U

    The story of the Miami Hurricanes college football team who were both the most controversial and most successful college football team in the 80's and early 90's. This is an amazing story, featuring a lot of ex players talking about the legacy they created, about how they all came from rough neighbourhoods and would fight their way to victories. They deliberately provoked and gloated over other teams and America reacted. The majority of people hated the fact that poor black kids from rough neighbourhoods were hammering the traditional old institutions. This is the best episode I've seen so far, they could make an excellent film based on this kind of story.

    10/10
