definitely totally faction, rather then fact, but those of you thinking it'll be like Frost Nixon will be in for a bit of a shock.

One of you Euro-types want to give us football neophytes some back-story here?

Trailer for a socka movie called "The Damned United"

It appears to be a biopic of a down-on-his-luck coach who defies expectations and crafts a winning team in his own style. In the 1970s, maybe.

What coach, what team, I have no idea.

Brian Clough is the coach , a thorn in the side of the English soccer establishment for years.

and he was in no way down on his luck, but he took over Leeds United having won the league with Derby and only lasted 44 days, then went on to win the league and European Cup with Nottingham Forest.

but it's also starring yer man who starred in Frost-Nixon and The Queen as well as sharing some of the back room team.

Probably not a flick that's going to get a lot of play on this side of the pond.
