Built in Birmingham: Brady & the Blues

As a blues fan, I'm biased. But this is a professionally shot and edited documentary. It's not a low budget cash grab. I think this would suit any and all football fans rivalling the Wrexham and Sunderland documentaries. It's open and honest, revealing of course the aim for the American owners is personal profit, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing. The relationship can be mutually beneficial. I'm keen for more in the years to come.

Like Wrexham and Sunderland till I die before it Brady and the Blues delves into a unique look at a sleeping giant.

A British soccer club in peril Brady and co walk into to an insane environment of hooliganism, decay and grit ... looking to change its fortunes around.

It's not all plain sailing and the challenges come thick and fast especially in episode 1.

A fish out of water story but a worthwhile incite non the less.

This is a bad copy of Wrexham. It is purely a money grabbing act. Brady is trying to act like what he calls football is the same thing as the real football. Knows nothing about it and the way he acts superior is just cringe. He does nor care nor act like caring. The 15 minute pub visit they have to do as owners summarises the whole thing. An American Wallstreet money villain you see in the movies decide to profit from an English football club. Gives a small share of the club to a celebrity and asks him to go around promoting the team internationally. First thing they do is getting a good player as the head coach which does not make sense and of course get relegated. The documentary looks well filmed but really can' t get past how superficial Tom Brady is and how badly Wagner acts like caring. If they have Wrexham documentary' s in success in your sights. Try to be more involved and caring as them.

The Blues documentary was excellent - had some concerns prior to watching as there have already been quite a few football documentaries. It had good balance and gave some insight at what went on behind the scenes (though I thought they could have showed more comments / input from other senior management and other players.

Could have dedicated a few mins to Juke too.

Episode 3 was quite sad - especially when highlighting the playing similarities using TV footage of Jay and his Dad.

The whole thing came across as a bit beggy.

Im Tom Brady the greatest please follow my team.

As a neutral watching he did not come across in the best light.

Within the first scene I found my self telling the camera man to sort the focus out.

And I was not a fan of the stalker camera man mode peering over shoulders.

For me it was a distraction.

The whole thing felt disjointed and if it wasn't for the fact I was a fan it would have been difficult to follow the narrative.

The bit with Jay was good and I would have like to have seen more of the history, the part about the zulus was very good.

The two female Stewart were for me the highlight and there chemistry really translated well on the camera.

Sukh was also a great addition but personally I found Joe to have the personality of a used dish cloth.

I well say the fans they did follow were all singular and I would like to have seen more of the comradery of groups or family's that follow the club.

On a whole it was watchable but could have been better.

The womens team should have featured, the foundation should have featured and the work being done in the community.

Too much Tom Brady and not enough heart and soul of Birmingham.
