As an absolute football fanatic I'm trying to get my hands on anything even slightly football related during this quarantine. So this came out at just the right time.

It's a very interesting (even I didn't know much about this story) and very well made period drama.

An interesting story on the origins of professional football in England with some nice backstories and character development... just a shame it's a bit loose on the historical footballing accuracy! [spoiler] Fergus Suter and Blackburn Rovers were not actually the first Northern team to win the FA Cup! Blackburn Olympic won it the year before them without Suter. [/spoiler] This aside, it's an enjoyable watch and I wouldn't mind a second series!

You know the white savior trope? This entire show is that, but with rich people saving poor people. Other than that, it's good entertainment and I liked having a glimpse of how soccer used to be played.

The series is quite simple, yet it transports well into the "time" of the events.
For any football (soccer) fan it's a mini-must watch

This is the first time I evaluate a series with these criteria, it follows a similarity with the formatting I do with movies evaluation.
