Films I never want to see again #481

Mike Bassett: England Manager

Cringeworthy rubbish that attempts to tap into a nation's love of football and does so badly. Hadn't England stopped playing at the Old Wembley by the time that came out? Clichéd "the Scottish are rubbish" gags are a bit out of date now considering they fared better than England in trying to get to Euro 2008. And the blatant parody of the Maradona goal - I just hope they weren't trying to make it somewhat believable!
