Sunderland?
Sun: Netflix and Amazon Prime in bidding war to sign Man Utd for revealing fly-on-the-wall docuseries like All or Nothing
- Thread starter #07
- Start date
Sunderland was already terrible for quite a while before that to be fair.
Liverpool are being filmed for All or Nothing right now, and their season's going.... Well...
But yeah I know what you mean - our players are always under a microscope anyway, so it probably wouldn't make a difference.
small time clubs (City, Arsenal, Spurs) do this stuff, we are above it.
Maybe if we win couple of trophies (FA & EL) then maybe and documentary on season (like one ep with some interviews and clips of games/trainings/meetings and whatnot) should suffice.

We should also hope for couple of books from our players by the end of that season. Apparently it's what you do when you win a trophy.
While I'd love to have a proper docu-series on Utd, I don't like the All Or Nothing series with the exception of the Spurs one which felt a lot more balanced for some reason. All the others are just propaganda pieces where they play up cringy motivational talks for the viewer and never look into things like tactics or show anything bad or confrontational about anyone at the club. Sunderland Til I Die and Wrexham doc are much better, especially Sunderland Til I Die which is still by far the best of these ever done imo. I think it would be better to wait until we're already back before doing something like this though. Doing a series after our 1st league title under ETH would probably be ideal since the pressure would be off the players a bit
While I think its cringy as fk the world is littered with companies that never moved with the times. Kodak for instance that never believed in digital cameras. We live in the times of social media and youtubers etc. See how Jake Paul is making a killing etc. Point being the more we put out the better. Bring in the Lingard Dab contest. The Pogba does fashion. The docuseries. The Chess football. The United prank channel. Doesn't matter. Its where we are in society.

To be honest I just wouldn’t take the risk.. especially as things are on the up. We don’t need it for exposure and hopefully when the takeover comes we won’t need it for the money.
Just don’t see any benefit to it.
Simply to enjoy watching it
Manchester United: Heh or Nothing.
Oh I’d have definitely enjoyed watching it.
Imagine behind the scenes this season with the Ronaldo stuff, the takeover, Sancho etc etc.. great TV!
Fine work Sir, damn fine work.
If United was ever minded to do something like this, it should do it in house. Hire an external production team, with the appropriate confidentiality contracts in place. Then you can control when/if it comes out.
The problem with allowing someone else to put this together is, even if they let you have say of what goes in it, you can't guarantee it'll be the story of a great season. You might not want to release a documentary of an average year.
Film your own and, if it's a great season, license it to an external party. There will be plenty of buyers. Just don't give control to an external party.

Can't see it. They were approached years ago but Klopp said no.Are they?
Their subreddit comments on United doing one after the first game of this season are entertaining seven months on.
I can't see ETH having it. Please no. Although there was one and it happened in the 98-99 season and we all know what happened there.
This is naive. Already this season EtH has shown the power of a close-knit dressing room which doesn't leak. We don't want any kitchen secrets out there in the world, even with a year delay.
if Amazon really want to do this let them fork out the 6B and buy the club, otherwise feck off Jeff.
It should be for a shite load of money if anything. And don't call it all or nothing, it just sets it up for jinxing and you get what Spurs got, nothing
Leave it up to ETH and the players, if they feel they are OK with it, then so be it. But I wouldn't want to unsettle any of the of the group, this stuff does more harm than good.
We've only just got rid of 2 social media drama queen's, we don't need to be potentially adding more.
