  • A documentary film rather than a story, but if you haven't seen the Diego Maradona film yet, it is brilliant. It was on Channel 4 last week and is available on All4 for a limited time...

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned "When We Were Kings".

    My favourite ever sports documentary film  . It's about the Rumble in the jungle - Ali v Foreman in 1974 . 

    I can't believe someone said Green Street .  One of the worst films ever made .

    'Champions'

    (Bob Champion's successful fight against cancer and then going on to win the Grand National on Aldaniti. 1984 film starring John Hurt).

  • Always had a very soft spot for Remember the Titans. And The Waterboy obviously
  • The Wrestler
    The Fighter
    Million Dollar Baby

    Damned United
