In the mould of what you know of modern 'documentary football', with the twist that this isn't big league, isn't Hollywood, isn't sleeping giant. It's Grimsby Town. Football stalwarts, sleeping minnows in a big pond? Pretentions of grandeur don't really work for us Town fans, we look silly trying to be the big boys of non league, because, we are non league, the table doesn't lie.
This film kind of acknowledges that, by the fact that we have had this miracle season worth shouting about. Strong start, mid season terror, squeaking the play-offs. It leads to the play-offs of play-offs. Sit back and glory in the most entertaining 3 games of a Town fans life, of a neutrals casual interest and i guess, of 3 other National Leagues disbelief. Football at its finest, told through the voices of all involved.
Would a non fan enjoy this? I know football is tribal, i know its hard to support 'other teams' if tou are a fan. But, i think this story is worth a look for any fan kf football, not just GTFC fans.
