A mildly compelling but disturbing watch, proving English hooliganism hasn't really moved on that much since the 70's & 80's.

The actual football story aside (which was the only decent thing in this doc - well done lads!) this documentary missed a real opportunity to educate the public on football crowd dynamics, and what another shameful episode the psychy at English football grounds is sometimes still really like., especially when groups of young people are a several beers deep so long before the game.

The doc completely failed to go into the additional experience of a number of player's families and dignitaries that fell foul of the mob developing outside, nor some corrupt event hosts/guards that took cash bribes from ticket-less fans to ease their passage through, and also the fans with genuine tickets (including in disabled areas) who were threatened with violence for simply attempting to access their assigned seat once reaching their zone, with zero help from stadium stewards frozen to do anything about it.

The planned Covid spacing protocols went down the toilet, thugs just sat/stood wherever they pleased, taking other fans seats, overcrowding behind the goals especially, and over the access ways that were meant to be kept clear in the event of rapid evacuation etc. The list goes on.

Security was a complete shambles - remember, it was just less than 6 yrs earlier, in 2015, that a coordinated terrorist attacks in Paris took place, one of which was at the national 'Stade de France' Stadium as 3 suicide bombers attempted to gain access to a France vs Germany football game to no avail, ultimately detonating themselves outside instead. Imagine the carnage had something of this scale developed at Wembley?

I did not see any news of reprimands in the press following this shameful Wembley fiasco over their security and organisational shambles that could've turned out very differently. It was purely by fluke that no one died that day.

• It's no surprise to me that the English FA and Wembley Stadium authorities were total unprepared for the scale of chaos that ensured in England's long wait for final appearance in a major tournament.

• It's also no surprise to me that the 2 young men (and I use the term 'men' loosely) who effectively stole other people's money to gain access to the stadium, feel no shame in their behavior, such is the vast blatant disrespect for authority and that appears to exist in this age group. There simply aren't sufficient consequences for this kind of immature, childish behavior.

• And should it really be any surprise that the English FA and Wembley Stadium authorities have no shame in monetizing their failures if they can make a few bucks out of Netflix? Not really.

The English Hooligans are well represented and how can they not be? This documentary clearly shows how the behavior is deeply entrenched in the young male England football fan. They have a well deserved bad reputation and this documentary only solidifies that fact. Every single citizen of the country or fan of the team should be thoroughly and completely embarrassed by what happened at Wembley on this day. It's so sickening that despite my previous support of the England club, I now hope they never, ever win any big tournament in the near future. The fans deserve many more decades of football misery for this.

No pun intended - I don't know if another title would be more appropriate ... but I reckon we have to work with what we get! I do understand that England and its fans had quite a lot to look forward too. It is 2024 and there the Champions League final is in Wembley - but no English team is going to be there to challenge for the trophy (you got a German and a Spanish team left).

But a couple of years ago, the national team was able to reach the finals. Against Italy - one game, everything is possible! But the structure .. the way things were prepared seem in hindsight to not have been the best.

If you know the outcome (and I knew who had won the game, but only remembered while watching what occurred after the game was over), you may not be too surprised ... but we get interviews and snippets from the day and the days leading up to it. I still think as already said that the title can be perceived as a bit deceiving ... but that aside, it is horrible what some "fans" did after the final ... you win and you lose together! I reckon some things will never change ... and with social media giving certain people a platform ... well it won't be changing in the near future.

Let's try to spread love - even in the time of "defeat" ... not easy to do, but better to stick together and give each other some comfort, rather than spread hate ... which should be a take away from this, not sure if it really is done in a way, you feel it serves that message .. or any message of that kind.
