The First Team

Make no mistake Damian Beesley and Ian Morris are two of our best sitcom writers. After the brilliant Inbetweeners, Siblings and White Gold it was inevitable that a turkey had to come along. With the exception of Mike Bassett for some reason comedies about football never work. Which is strange when you consider the material you have to work with.

Despite the best efforts of the two writers the gags just don't work. Which is a real shame as I was so looking forward to this series. Far more sitcoms fail than succeed they are incredibly hard t write and I'm sure Beesley and Morris will be back.
