Fever Pitch: The Rise of the Premier League

This documentary series views the history of the Premier League totally through the prism of Manchester United.... The first episode is interesting because it gives good insight on Sky and what they were trying to achieve... by episode 2 it's become a pretty dull account of Man Utd's exploits. It's laughable that teams like Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool are barely even mentioned in the first 3 programmes. What's even worse is there's NO coverage of what the Premier League meant for the leagues below or for the smaller teams who had to compete against the economic giants.... where are Ipswich, Norwich, Coventry, QPR, Aston Villa, Wimbledon, Crystal Palace etc etc.

The series is totally unbalanced and a poor effort at telling the story of an era where football changed utterly. Pretty frustrating that they've made such a hash of it.
