Eric Cantona and Karl Marginson down our street today!
Filming at the end of our street in Worsley today, 3 coach loads of blokes in FC shirts and bar scarves including manager Karl Marginson and the slimline Pete Boyle.
It's a new Ken Loach film apparently, what's the FC united connection? I'm going to do another recce later see if I can get a glimse of the king.  |

Had a mooch past again after tea, was told that Eric has finished filming and wasn't on the set, probably a polite way of telling me to piss off.
Lot's of blokes in FC united shirts including Margy and the fat bloke off the post office adverts with cricket bats and sticks hanging around outside Giggsys house (the house they're using is next door), it was rather bizarre!! |

Bloke of the post office ads is a big red and FC regular.
No-one knows for sure what the film is about. I know a few people who have been extras, even mates of my mum have been extras?!?!? But it's about a postman, it's about Cantona and (I think) it's about the postie having a breakdown, hallucinating that Cantona is with him and at the same time having to choose between his mates who still go to OT and those who've boycotted and gone to FC. (but don't quote me... this is the common thread of about 6 versions I've heard) |

That's a great photo, I'm so jealous. They were still filming at tea time so fingers crossed he's there tomorrow, I'm going to make a nuisance of myself in the morning. |

Very disappointed to find Eric was not in any of the scenes But he turned up after the filming had finished At least I got a photo and his autograph and paid for doing it |
