Great news, well done! Can't have been easy getting this mobilised.

Really pleased youve been able to make this happen, bet it's been a massive labour of love! So looking forward to seeing it!  :)

Well done and see you on the 5th 👏👏👏

Looking forward too it, Do hope the fans interviewed arent the usual " Turgoose and Lloyd Griffith"

Looking forward to seeing this 🥰🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Well done, I'll try and get to see it.

Great news.

How will us exiles be able to view it?

Says on the website post that there's going to be a screening for 'exiles' before it goes to streaming.

I hope Paul Hurst and Doigy go………
They deserve it……part of the team

Would that be similar to asking the surviving crew of the Titanic to watch a documentary of how unsinkable a ship she was?

They did manage to get to Southampton without any issues....

Due to the dignity that both the club & Hursty held the sacking.

I don’t think so.

Sold out within minutes,apparently

Quoted from forza ivano

Sold out within minutes,apparently

Not quite. If you go on the parkway website there are 3 (almost) concurrent showings - 1 is sold out, the 2nd very nearly, the 3rd getting there gradually. Just a matter of time though.

I might go for one of the normal showings the following week. I’m gonna guess these showings will be cheaper than the premieres too……

Yeah but then you run the risk of having someone spoil the ending for you.

Just the first screen! Will be many screens playing almost simultaneously :)

Quoted from Hagrid

Looking forward too it, Do hope the fans interviewed arent the usual " Turgoose and Lloyd Griffith"

They are. I saw the first two episodes when it was leaked a few weeks back

I am very happy that this didn't make it to a wider audience, Wrexham did it.....would hate to be seen as a "copycat" almost.
Will go see it and re-live some of the memories and no doubt see a load of new stuff so more than happy with this turnout.

I won't go to the premiere as a red carpet affair and smart dress code isn't my kind of thing but will certainly book tickets for one of the nornal viewings

Quoted from ska face

Yeah but then you run the risk of having someone spoil the ending for you.

This comment is under rated

I plan to travel up for one of the viewings the following week. Really looking forward to seeing on the big screen.  

Teaser one out today!

Any idea when bookings are to be released beyond the opening evening on the 5th Jan?

Can't make the 5th but be a great stocking filler for my old man.

I have 2 adult tickets for the 19:00 showing tomorrow if anyone is interested. Thought i'd offer on here before contacting them for a refund as it's sold out. £36 the pair

Why is it £18 for this when normal ticket price for pictures is £8.50.

Quoted from Norseman

Because it's the premiere event

I'm truly baffled by the excitement with this? I want to watch it myself but having seen the games already at the time with proper drama and atmosphere I can't see the appeal?

Quoted from 1mickylyons

I'm truly baffled by the excitement with this? I want to watch it myself but having seen the games already at the time with proper drama and atmosphere I can't see the appeal?

I dunno. I consider myself privileged to have been at all three of those play-off games, but I’m not sure I “enjoyed” the drama in realtime. Wrexham in particular, I think just pipped Bristol Rovers at Wembley as the illest I have felt watching a football match my entire life.

For me, it was the most incredible trilogy of games I have ever witnessed, and almost certainly will ever witness. I could watch it back a billion times. To see it as part of a professionally made production is something I am very much looking forward to. Possibly a slight shame that it’s been a little while in the making and most of the people involved have left the club, but that’s only a minor qualm.

Quoted from 1mickylyons

We were lucky enough to watch it with Jack a couple of weeks ago and interview him afterwards about it on the DN35 Podcast. It was a simply brilliant watch and I can absolutely say watching back after all the emotion has settled down definitely gives you an appreciation for what we did and perhaps even a different perspective - actually seeing it all rolled up in one film is quite powerful.

It's also great to hear and listen to a wide range of fans, players and staff's memories about the season as a whole, again giving that extra level of appreciation or added layer seeing it from others view points. There was also so many bits I'd forgotten about or hadn't thought about at the time. Not ashamed to say I found parts abit emotional..

The film's really great, anyone going to the Parkway is in for a great night, enjoy! Unlike the play-off campaign where I certainly didn't enjoy a single second of it - I was an absolute nervous wreck!

How did the world premiere go then? I am going tomorrow
I noticed Max Wright Mcatee and Fox attended which is good to see.

Max didnt see the full film though , got injured part way through and was escorted out by Dave Moore  ;)

Loved it tbh. Been good 2 of my 20 years supporting town. Ace to have it documented for me to watch now and in 30 years

Quoted from moosey_club

Guilty lol @ this

Really enjoyed it. It was great to see what it meant to people involved and the the tension for the players and staff. I already knew of the tension as a fan.

Town fans will love it, I'm not sure if non town fans will take to it, as I just can't see it from that perspective.

I hope there is a 2nd about the cup run and filming took place as the events happened.

I also think a film about Dave Moore would be an international box office hit.

Quoted from headingly_mariner

Saw what you did there....

Well done Jack, my lad Bertie thoroughly enjoyed the evening, you’re a credit to the Mariners faithful UTM!

Quoted from Davec

I thought that was a nice touch especially from Fox & McAtee who have no links at all with the area now, speaks volumes about the connection between the players & support that season, amazing what unity achieves. McAtee’s interview with Mike White for RH was a good piece as well.

The cynic in me says the current squad should go & see it, but that’s probably a bit harsh on the lads still with the club.

Looking at that play off team now, with Fox, McAtee, Smith, Taylor, Sousa and JMD, with Clifton, Hollohan and Waterfall in good form, with Mani and Abrahams on the bench, and the Cropper throw in missiles in the armory, it doesn't seem we have progressed much over the last two years as a well organised, disciplined, solid defensive unit or attacking force.  

Quoted from wembley_double98

Bertie is a legend, must be proud of him mate. Top man

Quoted from sutton mariner

Thanks Jack, we like to think we had a part in that! Looking forward to viewing the film very soon

I really enjoyed the premiere and it was genuinely emotional watching it at times, as a town fan it brings together so many memories of that incredible two weeks that will almost certainly not be beaten. Whether it will translate into something that more general sports fans enjoy I'm not sure.

Great to see mcatee and fox at the premiere.

Quoted from dapperz fun pub

Lee blease the ex town photographer complaining that they’ve used his photo and to-be fair  if it’s his work he should be getting paid for it.

If Lee Blease ever went missing he’d probably moan the police were using one of his photos.

Quoted from Knut Anders Fosters Voles

If Lee Blease ever went missing he’d probably moan the police were using one of his photos.

If someone from the production company or the club haven't done due diligence on the footage they showed and they did use one of his photos then as someone who does photography and expects to be paid for it he has every right to be drunk.

Quoted from Knut Anders Fosters Voles

If Lee Blease ever went missing he’d probably moan the police were using one of his photos.

I don’t know Lee or know the exact detail that went on regarding him and the club but if that photo is his work I’d at least want acknowledging for it

Quoted from dapperz fun pub

I don’t know Lee or know the exact detail that went on regarding him and the club but if that photo is his work I’d at least want acknowledging for it

That’s fair enough but why he doesn’t contact the relevant people rather than leebleasing about it on Instagram

I'm really surprised PH didn't carry that on into the EFL we where a huge threat from set pieces and the Cropper throw.I mean it wasn't pretty but boy was it effective.

We kept Cropper, he was just injured all the time.

Quoted from sam gy

We kept Cropper, he was just injured all the time.

Came a Cropper

I saw this today and just wanted to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am grateful that Jack has the skills, ambition and passion to pull this together in such an engaging way and captures such an historical moment, or narrative. Despite knowing the outcome, the dramatic manner in which the team pulled off the seemingly unbelievable on each occasion, is brought into sharper view on the big screen, perhaps because of the way the drama of the whole experience is captured, and/or because the memories also fade a little. Either way, it was fantastic to experience it once again. I actually went with a supporter of another team, who also really enjoyed it! I seldom post on here but just needed to say well done and thank you!

Any news as to when and where this will be available to stream?

I also went today (the awesomely titled ‘School Run Friendly’ showing! Loved it. I guessed the ending, though, but still fun nonetheless.

Most enjoyable, brought a tear or two. Thank you. 8)

Excellent film of that miraculous play-off campaign.

What struck me most was the phenomenal team spirit in place during that time - something which was sadly absent a couple of weeks ago when the team crumbled and capitulated to a 6-1 home defeat.

It may well be that we have technically better players now, but what seems to be lacking is the heart and spirit of those boys of the 2021-22 season.

Quoted from Poojah

Any news as to when and where this will be available to stream?

Anyone heard anything on this? Appreciate the club’s social media channels have had more pressing news to break in the last couple of weeks, but really keen to watch the documentary.

Will need to find someone prepared to take it which is not a given. Read an article about this recently, apparently around new 1200 films are offered  to streamers every year and many don’t make it

The piece on the club website the night before the premiere states:

Quoted Text

The documentary will also soon be available for exile supporters – more information about this will be announced next week.

https://gtfc.co.uk/all-town-arent-we-world-premiere-information/

This reads like they’ve got a platform lined up. I can only assume that more serious events have got in the way of a follow-up announcement, or they’ve decided to wait until this weekend’s final screenings are out of the way.

That squad just seemed to have more characters who had more character.

A guy spoke to me after the film saying that it's going on Amazon, not sure how he knows though, or if indeed if it is.

Now available on Mariners TV.

I wonder which ‘international streaming platform’ it will be released on, that the club refer to in that article - assuming it will be Netflix?

Quoted from Heisenberg

I also went today (the awesomely titled ‘School Run Friendly’ showing! Loved it. I guessed the ending, though, but still fun nonetheless.

No spoilers please.

Even though I shall stream it and watch it I hope it finally comes out on dvd so us fans can have a permanent keepsake of that season.

I watched the final again the other day and it's a shame they didn't include John Moore's summing up after the final whistle as it was quite moving.

Me n the wife watched it via Mariners TV last night and thought it was superb, well worth £10. Plaudits to Jack Spring and all involved. Great to see my old mate Kenny Meech on there!
Thought Debbie came over really well, especially as her viewpoint was as an incomer, with no real relationship with GTFC beforehand. She really gets it doesnt she?
Somehow, with it minus 7 outside I developed hayfever for much of a 90 minute period.
The bits where Debbie was talking about the fans, the club n the town started the hayfever, and was at its worst when Lloyd ended it brilliantly by summing up with the simple statement that ,at last, you can be proud to say you're a Town fan

PS kudos to the 2 Yanks for their input, gone up in my estimation for their wry, n v.fair input

Cheers for all the kind words. With no game today pop along to Parkway today to give it a watch if you haven't already. It's infinitely better on the big screen & it's the last weekend it'll ever be shown! UTM  

Finally!!! Got to see it, absolutely brilliant! Made me smile with pride & shed the odd tear.

What resonates is the effort of the PH & the players & how lucky we are to have owners like Andrew & Jason.

If anyone who's watched it could give us a review on IMDB it'd be super helpful!

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt28223752/?ref_=ra_sb_ln

Much love, UTM

Sorry to be so late to the party but I was unable to travel up for the screenings at the Parkway due to covid.

So I am finally getting to see it tonight on a big-ish screen. (A 110 inch projector screen)

It's sure to bring back glorious memories and I'll probably be close to tears at some point, but I can't wait!

Bring it on!

Loved it!

Really put together beautifully and captured the incredible excitement of that fortnight brilliantly.

Congratulations to all concerned in creating that. It’s a fitting testament to an extraordinary campaign the likes of which I doubt we will ever see again.

Is it still available on Mariners TV or any other platform?

Quoted from chaos33

Watched it at the weekend, really enjoyed it 👍

I though the contributions from the Wrexham owners were excellent. I won't give out any spoilers for those that haven't seen it yet, but Rob M's comments about our first equaliser is priceless! ;D
  

Tell me there's one in the pipeline for the cup run.

Quoted from headingly_mariner

I’m sure there was talk of a second series  being in the works, on a previous DN35 podcast episode featuring Jack.

Combining the two seasons exploits would make a great mini series on Netlix.

I don’t think I can watch this again at the minute. Knowing that all of that hard work could be about to be undone is just soul destroying.

Wasn’t overly fussed about seeing this if I’m honest, but just given it a watch and it’s absolutely unbelievable! Many scene brought a tear to my eye. Absolute credit to all involved, and I mean that sincerely.

Absolutely everyone connected with the club should watch this on Saturday morning before the FGR game. Players, coaches, manager, fans, stewards the lot. If that doesn’t inspire us all then we deserve what we get!

Enjoy y’all. A tiny bit of bonus content not seen in the film version too. UTM

Or just have it showing from the scoreboard from 1pm onwards?
Forecast is 9c so get those flip flops and shorts on and bask in the sunshine with a pint or two pre match

Might be an interesting study...the effect of cold on fans' ability to boo or praise their team. How many degrees warmer is it at sea level in the pontoon compared to the endothermic Upper Findus?

;D

Watched it on prime last night and really enjoyed it, especially the memories that flooded back
Only downside was listening to the positive comments at the end, which in hindsight sound a bit daft. Not sure who I blame for the current situation but it’s a real shame we’ve taken a step backwards

Watched it today and I thought it was incredible. It really captured that 2 week period really well and how much positivity was flowing through everyone involved with the club.

It makes it even more frustrating that we haven't kicked on and built upon that, becoming a real tour de force in the football pyramid. Maybe it is naïve but I genuinely thought this was Grimsby's time.

Saturday is now the most important game since the promotion final and we must not lose.

Just watched it this afternoon really good production really good watch

Watched it on Prime last night after not being fussed. I thought it was fantastic and some great interviews throughout made my night seeing AB. The Scanz bit was a hard watch that's something as fans we don't get.Well done all involved and credit to the Wrexham guys they went up in estimation.

I bought the DVD from the Club Shop today and just watched it. Absolutely amazing!

Working my way through the split parts on Prime (3 episodes as opposed to 1 feature length).

It's really, really good.  Finished the second episode which concludes with the County game, even though I knew it was coming I still got hairs on the back of my neck for the Holohan equaliser.    

Whilst it was a disappointing second season for him, McAtee was so bloody good in that first season.  I really miss having a proper talisman in the side.  Someone with genuine swagger and ability to back it up.  

Just finished it. Well I’m definitely up for tomorrow now!

Quoted from LH

Just finished it. Well I’m definitely up for tomorrow now!

Oh, for a Ben Fox in midfield tomorrow...

Didn't realise my wife had amazon prime , just sat and watched the 1st episode. My god does it hit you hard. Very emotional and everyone speaks very well.
It makes me realise how much I miss J Mcatee!

Watched it all last night with the wife. Unbelievable the last fortnight, makes you proud to be a meggie!

Same today please.

I watched it last night (though I was also busy doing some other stuff at the time so couldn't give it my full attention). It struck me that I'd forgotten about half of the players who were involved that season. Am I right in thinking that the only survivor of the group is Harry Clifton? Pearson and Davies still at the club as well, of course.

I know we're a lower division club, but that sort of a player churn is remarkable.

Holohan too.....but can't remember him playing in the final?.

Me too watched it yesterday after work with a cupp tea, brought memories / reminders what happened and how it unfolded back especially when you don't  remember what you had for tea last night.
Loved the fact "Those American Chappies" joined in and added to it.
A nod and thank you to those who got us there who departed i felt was just ,not swept under the carpet.
For me footage of BP/ Grimsby town and docks good for an "Exile" to see again
So cheers  for that as always UTM.

Watched it last night too - what a great togetherness we had as a squad and a club that season.

Let's hope for just a bit of that today...

Watched it last night on Prime. Absolutely brilliant just hope the very last line from Lloyd Griffith doesn't come back to haunt us.

Also watched it last night and enjoyed it very much.

One thing I remember from those play off games is the reaction to conceding a goal. We were straight back to the centre circle ready to respond, you could see the determination in the players faces. So different from how it is now, I do think the players are trying but confidence is so low.
