The Football Factory

Continuity mistake: Bill and Albert are having a drink and smoke by the window when it is raining. The first shot shows the rain thrashing down on the window and dripping off it. But it cuts to a different shot. It is still raining, but there isn't a drip coming off the window.

Revealing mistake: When the firm takes more or less a full coach load to Liverpool, one shot from a bridge shows the coach with only 1 visible passenger and what looks like a different driver.

Continuity mistake: They are on the way to Liverpool, where they stop "Up North" and Zeberdee and Raff are kicked out by Bill to discover Liverpool fans nearby. The ruckus ensues and they get back on the coach. They then pull up at services. Surely at the Zeb and Raff scene, they must have been pretty close to Liverpool, but they still drive on and go to a service station that must have been (by the flow of events) slap bang in the centre of Liverpool.

Tommy Johnson: What else are you gonna do on a Saturday? Sit in your fuckin' armchair wankin' off to Pop Idols? Then try and avoid your wife's gaze as you struggle to come to terms with your sexless marriage? Then go and spunk your wages on kebabs, fruit machines and brasses? Fuck that for a laugh! I know what I'd rather do. Tottenham away, love it.

Tommy Johnson: Jesus! I was expecting a bowl of cornflakes and a quick wank.
