Great first page, lots of energy and comedic tone set. Deffo makes you want more. Is it a completed feature? Pilot?

I don’t understand why the commentators aren’t picking up on it.

Sorry Dai it’s 28, you must have missed the last one 😞

A day of two managers. Potter (who I like, btw) has 'pragmatism and a commitment to flexibility' whereas David Moyes 'is a risk, as he doesn't have a defined approach' . Then, the gloriously reductive... 'David Moyes' claim to fame is that he managed Paul Gascoigne 22 years ago'. Take a bow, son!

Beautiful film. Loved how Talia was almost guiding her father towards moving on. Couldn’t help think her mum was doing it through her! ❤️

Can't wait to open this! Biggest change for my young eyes was going from a fast defence to a slow defence due to a) Selling Stevens and replacing him with a man carrying a wardrobe on his back b) Not replacing Rats when he came back from injury slow (Fergie would have). Now we were 20 yards deeper.

😂 Any time!

I wish. Turns out a script where a 20 stone prop forward called Dai crosses his legs as a power play just doesn’t have the same commercial pull as his one 😞

😆 That's where you need to get to! Producers would WAY rather be flinching at the cruelty and doubting your sanity than dozing off mid-read 🤯

Puzzled El Ghazi's not in the mix, but overall it's Dunc just over Pickford for me. We're toast without him in 97/98 and possibly in 01/02 when he came back in as skipper under Moyes.

I wanted to 'bluesky tweet' you when I saw the result last Monday, but then realised you might not have seen the email due to timezones, and it might spoil the surprise! Massive congratulations, that is HUGE 👏👏👏

How did I miss this. Man, this is unreal talent.

I learned of Hitler's playbook not from some history-twisting anti-Trump author, but from a book published in 1998 - long before Trump entered politics. Hitler - Ian Kershaw And it goes way beyond the rallies. Hitler has become a 21st century template for achieving power. That is our battle. 4/4

7. Promise to systematically remove that group of people from this nation. 8. Your speech must focus solely on your hatred of this group and fury at all other enemies. 9. Make your fury believable. It will spread throughout the room. And beyond. Do you recognise this? 3/4

4. Speak in short, simple sentences, your audience should be from the largely less-educated masses. 5. Focus on how this nation was previously a wonderful place, but now is a pit of depravity. 6. Place the blame for this on marxists/bolsheviks and one other specific group of people. 2/4

Gatland was the coach of the National side. Roger Lewis was the CEO of the WRU. Very clear where responsibilities started and ended. But yep, agree to disagree 🙂
comment in response to post
I was Roger Lewis’ PT a decade ago and Gatland did nothing more than any international coach would do to maximise his teams success. It’s not his job to control purse strings.

The head coach can’t be held responsible for the neglect of the Welsh club and grass roots game.

No agent yet. Yes I’d be interested to chat about potential collaboration, do you want to drop a line to [email protected] and we can go from there?

Hi Steve, I’ve sent the script out to a few production companies but nothing back as yet…
comment in response to post
Thank you Cindy for giving it a read! Chuffed that some of it may have translated across the pond as it is a very Welsh story and place. Let me know if you’d ever like a second pair of eyes on anything of yours 🙂

This would be a brilliant logline any time, but right now... It's perfect. I'd love to see it made, good luck!

I do think a critical velocity has been achieved this time, unlike the mini-migration last year. Provided #BlueSky have the servers/compute to keep the site fast under heavy numbers then there's no going back! (I'm still gonna wait til New Year before hitting delete over there)
comment in response to post
Thanks Cindy, that’s a positive first step! 🤞
