Seeing as might the Villa film hasn't seen the light of day:


Spoiler for Hiden:
We finished 4th and qualified for the Champions League

Maybe it was shit so no one wanted it.

That's where my money would go.

Heck hires a crew who put together a glossy, corporate-style hagiography about how great the club is. Send it round the streaming companies who say "you've not sent us a fly-on-the-wall documentary, you've sent us an advert for your club. Pass".

It isn't about Hägar the Horrible.

Thankfully I doubt Emery is as "entertaining" as some and I bet he hates it. Neither is Kompany but we all love a bit of schadenfreude. Or the Amazon Entertainment heads are on here and hate Tim.

Of course not, it's about "The Maradona of the Carpathians".

This is why i think we missed a trick here.  We should have arranged a friendly with wrexham and see if we can get some exposure with them - some links with their tv people.

Also i thought the company that owns part of v sports was into tv?

So you can break the rules in the Championship but only so long as you break them enough to get promoted...

I just noticed burnley have even jumped on the documentary band wagon with "mission to burnley"

I do wonder if we have gone down this route last season.  I mean that season last year would have made a awesome documentary and given us exposure to help with FFP

As there are so many documentaries nowadays “us v FFP” would actually be quite a good angle. Emery and co discussing how to navigate the stupid rules whilst heck desperately tries to increase revenue.

Or how about Damian Vidagany repeatedly punching Michel Platini in the face.

Theres a story on tomorrows star revealing how close we were to a 10 points deduction and the luiz sale last minute prevented that.

Our finances must have been a mess - probably explains why we got rid of diaby after only a season

Gives more credence to the West Ham pulling out of the Duran deal story, forcing us to sell Luiz pronto.

Six points with the potential of reduction as shown with the Everton appeal and Nottingham. One of those to prefer not to lose points as it can make a difference at the end. And I expect they don't think not having Luiz will cost us those in the season either.
