Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
It's nearly all devoted to the time after Mourinho took over, but I'm quite enjoying it so far. There was full access to a very "frank" discussion between Mourinho and Danny Rose and, speaking as someone who is not a fan of his, I warmed to Mourinho somewhat to see him cut up about the death of his dog over Christmas last year.

There is no doubt he builds a sense of ‘family’. He’s hard not to like when you see the human side of him, particularly when he’s smiling.
Danny Rose came across as a prick in my opinion.
It really is the Mourinho show though - doesn’t feel like there are many characters in that dressing room, unlike the Man City one where you got tons more insight into the players themselves. I’d hate to be stuck in a room with Harry Kane and have to make conversation. His team speeches are painful to watch.
Enjoying it nevertheless. Anything like this is compulsive viewing for me

That must be dog he brought to this country illegally by passing the vaccination arrangements and when the authorities knocked on his door to seize the dog he hid it. He was very close to the dog apparently.

I'm enjoying it and, like you, have warmed a little to Jose.
However, i definitely wouldn't enjoy it if I were a player at Spurs. I am sure being filmed having conversations with Jose isn't something I'd want everyone to see.. most players just stay silent and I wonder if it's because they are nervous and a little intimidated by knowing everyone is going to see the conversation. Not sure if it will foster trust between players and the manager.... I can only imagine players talking and saying "he's only behaving like that because the camera is rolling" etc.
Interesting though.

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
I seem to recall the previous Spurs manager didn't want this type of documentary of the club and him , guess it better fits Jose's narcissistic tendencies
-
Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
Another thing that was interesting was how Mourinho barely ever looked the physio in the eye when they were talking. I felt really sorry for the physio who was almost being treated witn contempt, but I suppose the club's physio is possibly the club employee you'd least like to talk as a manager.

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
I have warmed to Mourinho but thought he was a funny bloke beforehand. Yes, he had his little moments where he comes across arrogant or bigheaded but this shows his human side.
I'm enjoying it a lot and watch the new episodes straight away when they appear and regret it later wishing I'd strung them out a bit.

I said much the same to my dad.
He would be a member of staff you would need but very much the bearer of bad news in most instances as was the case most of the time he appeared.

All or Nothing is a concept owned by the NFL. It’ll probably be tied to Tottenham’s relationship with the NFL and the number of games a year being played at the stadium.

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
Yet to start on it yet but looking forward to this one.
I do have a connection with Spurs as I went to school in the shadow of the old ground and, partly, grew up in Tottenham and Wood Green.
Not so keen on the ‘Special One’ but it seems he is doing a good PR job on himself.
One I finish Designated Survivor on Netflix this will be my next binge watch.

I was thinking that about Kane’s speeches too, lame as, with a few f bombs thrown in at the end.

I’m always wary of these series as they are carefully edited but I have been surprised at how uninspiring any of the team talks and 1:1 player meetings have been. (they team talks are worse than mine! 😋)
I always look for some insight from these top managers that set them apart from the rest, but Mourinho’s meetings with players and team talks have been pretty banal leaving me wondering where and what are the magic ingredients that set him and other top class managers apart from others. I’d really love to know. Or maybe they just can’t show those parts 🤷*♂️

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
I watched a long interview (pert of a documentary) with Jose sometime ago when he talked at length about his career and what had achieved and how. He came across as quiet a modest person on a 1 to 1 basis. He gave credit to all he had done to Bobby Robson for teaching him having faith in him and encouraging him. He basically said 'without bobby I'd have been nothing'
There was no attempt to say he was the greatest thing in football or anything like the media comments.
He changed my opinion of him and I came round to thinking that under the brashness he was quite a nice guy

Maybe but I imagine that's probably just a very convenient coincidence, Man City had an All or Nothing series so it's not like it's the first one. I imagine the fact its an opportunity to film Mourinho in big shiny new stadium were bigger factors.

Let's hear about football at the sharp end , 3000 gates on a rainy Tuesday night , Rochdale living in the shadow of man united and man City
How they stay afloat on next to nothing
Thats football , not a hugely overpaid team and their hugely overpaid manager

Mate sunderland have a documentary if you want to watch how a small or shit club is run, it's a pure comedy.

Sunderland are a huge club
Rochdale , Bury ? That would open the eyes of what a struggling football club really goes through

They are shit though.
Fact is sludge no one cares about watching them. Have you watched league one or two football recently? It's ****ing awful most of the time, I for one could live a happy life with 0 attachment to those divisions ever again, nor do I care to watch a documentary about them.

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
Why do so many threads have to come around to how big a club is or isn't on here these days? The Sunderland documentary makes for very good television in my opinion because it is about a club going through a tough time and, human nature being what it is, I'd say people prefer to watch fly on the wall documentaries about clubs failing more than winning things. By their recent standards, Spurs' 19/20 season was a failure and, so far at least, it's something of a warts and all story of their campaign - what could have been a terrific series about Leeds' implosion in 18/19 was slightly ruined for me by the club having too much influence in what was shown to the extent that by the end of it, their bottle job was almost being seen as a triumph against the odds.

The Sunderland ones were MUCH better than the highly polished Man City and Spurs series probably for the reasons that TOBW stated.

its about the daily working and drama of a lower league club , they are often fascinating and far more interesting than hearing about a load of overpaid , pampered darlings
If you think we are never going to grace the lower divisions again then we are just one bad season from joining them

Sorry, but I really don't think that watching a documentary series about how a club like, for example, Rochdale have managed to stay in the bottom two divisions for their entire existence (I think that's correct) would be particularly interesting? Surely everyone has a fair idea why that's happened - I can't imagine watching a documentary about fans moaning that they've been shafted their entire existence and watching some stressed exec run around looking for money would be enjoyable at all, nor particularly interesting.
This is not to say I am anti small clubs, I love seeing them succeed - but for watching purposes, I fail to see how that would be enjoyable. Unless we are talking a Wycombe, or Forest Green for example, small clubs on the up - but you have referred to small clubs who have historically struggled - well we all know why, so it wouldn't be a particularly enlightening or exciting watch.
I did not say I thought we would never grace the bottom two divisions again, but thanks.

You said you could live a happy life with zero attachment to the bottom two divisions
I am afraid thats wishful thinking as sunderland , pompey and Leeds, all bigger clubs than us , have recently been down there
Some of the football player in league one and two is of a good standard
Did you ever watch cardiff city in the old division 3 or 4 or as they are now called league one and two ?
Its 17 years since we played at that level , I have no idea how old you are but a bad season and we could be back there

Re: Anyone watching All or Nothing on Spurs?
Personally I find the dynamics between players I know of at a massive club, and a behind the scenes look at matchday before for example a massive Champions League game more interesting than seeing the struggles of a lower league club

Thats cool but lots of people are interested in the game at the grass roots level
I saw a documentary on Leyton orient a few years back , it was gripping stuff
Also a look at the decline of Bury , in the shadow of united and City
The day to day struggles of simply surviving as a football club , not some arse arriving at the training ground in his porsche

Fine, each to their own but I don't want to watch a documentary about the Leyton Orient manager taking out the bins, I want to see what was going on at half time in the changing room after Liverpool went 3-0 up against Man City
