Interesting doc here on the 50’s border campaign and the inbetween years of the Ra -with interviews and opinion from multiple Vols. involved.
Well worth a watch despite some tan-centric commentary.

‘When Football Changed Forever’
The full story of the 1991-92 football season when Leeds United won the title, when the top flight clubs plotted to break away and form the Premier League, when Alan Sugar took on Greg Dyke over the TV deal, and when Donald Trump did the Rumbelows Cup draw.

I’d forgotten Quinns volley from the one two with Brightwell, sublime 
Not to mention his chip in the 4-0 against Leeds.
Quinny
Quinner was top class for a few months around then, I’d say that was close enough to the night he cushioned that goal in at Wenbley.
Kenilworth Road has changed one bit, literally
Which bit Ray?
No bit dancing
This should be decent when it comes out.
I enjoyed the short Doc “Long Shot”.
Which again exposed the unbelievably racist and flippant approach to policing in US

Watched this tonight, really good story, it’d make you think about miscarriages of justice alright. Great work by the defense lawyer
TAWAI - A voice from the forest | Official Trailer | A film from Bruce Parry
I got to see this last night. A very reflective & thoughtful piece. Its quiet different to his previous material. Its clear from its structure that rather than just documenting a topic of anthropological interest, the aim hear is to stir the senses, our consciousness, into action.
The new Vietnam documentary series currently on RTE and Bbc4 (Mon nights) is well worth a look

What I liked about Long Shot was its brevity, 40 minutes, story told, even got an A lister in on the case!
