doing a search on IMDB gave me this:

http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0182420/fullcredits

btw, it was directed by chris bernard of Letter to Brezhnev fame, who also directed the TV series 'Making Out', which had music by TOT (credited as NO on most of them though. title music was a synth only version of vanishing point)

any more information on this?

BTW if you look up the New Order Story (9.4/10 hahahah) it recommends you might like 'Feet of Flames'... WTF? are you sure?

Seem to remember this as a 'made for TV' film, probably Channel 4.

It was a story about a footballer played by a bloke from EastEnders. Keith Allen played the Team Manager, and I seem to remember it was filmed at Maine Road.

Think the 'original' music was 'Other Two' stuff, a la 'Making Out'.....

FYI: "The Other Two" has made music for:

Shooting Stars (BBC UK) Making Out (BBC UK) America's Most Wanted (Fox US)

They also made the title music for Reportage and Night Voice.

At least according to my info...

plus 'Best & Marsh' in the UK, which I assume would be the 'Best & Marsh' B side from the technique era.

see the last paragraph of http://observer.guardian.co.uk/osm/story/0,6903,1034724,00.html for an anecdote.

btw for all septics and other non brits, George Best was the greatest football player of the 70s, hugely talented plus a notorious hellraiser. always dated miss worlds, drank loads, a tabloid paper's darling. even now, 20 years after his career ended he can still make the headlines. kind of rock and roll meets sport.

With George Bests playboy life style it's amazing he was able to kick a football let alone be one of the best players of all time.

As a rule, I generally hate it when some smart arse needlessly corrects someone over a minor detail... but I'm going to do it :)

As stated in the first post of this thread, O2 did the music for "Shooting Stars", a Channel 4 film about football.

They did not provide any music for "Shooting Stars", the BBC comedy game show.

Sixties surely? That's when he played his best footie. He was all washed up by the seventies and ended his days at the likes of Fulham and Los Angeles Aztecs.
