Poetic license to the max

Warning: Spoilers
The series is a good watch for a football fan to see the perspective of the class divide early in the game. But the factual inaccuracies in it are slightly appalling, thrown on the altar of poetic or literary license. Among the many is the central character, Fergus Suter, depicted as scoring both Blackburn Olympic goals in the final. Not only did he not score in the game, he didn't play in the game, in fact he never actually played for the club. He played for Blackburn Rovers not Blackburn Olympic.
