Built in Birmingham: Brady & the Blues

Steven Knight is a great storyteller. I love the way he's entwined Brady's mental toughness with the "toughness" of a working class city, Peaky Blinders ( Link to the Zulus who "took on "racisim in 1970's) and the winning mentality Knighthead are looking to instill. Birmingham being multi cultural has important role to play in the increasingly divise world we live in. The Brady12 brand will ensure this continues.

Has a USA orientation, but a well-filmed series yjay brings yje views of supporters to the take-over of the club. Some great behind scenes. Captures Brady in a positive way as he brings his sporting philosophies and beliefs to the 2nd City Club.

Good perspective on the changes that Knighthead propose, some real passion shown by owners, players and Blues fans.

KRO SOTV.

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.

Fantastic build-up! The narrative effectively highlights the lows and errors, showcasing a journey of growth and redemption. The way challenges are addressed and rectified adds depth to the story, making it engaging and relatable. A powerful reminder of resilience and the importance of learning from one's mistakes.

Moreover, the characters are well-developed and their struggles resonate on a personal level. The author skillfully intertwines moments of tension with resolution, creating a balanced rhythm that keeps readers hooked. The insights into human emotions and the journey towards improvement elevate the overall message, making it both inspiring and thought-provoking.

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.
