About this movie

As the 2015/16 football season drew to a close, West Ham United bade farewell to its sacred Boleyn Ground after 112 years of occupation and moved, lock, stock and barrel, to the London Stadium up the road; a momentous relocation that has been recorded with the gravitas and passion it deserves in documentary film IRON MEN. IRON MEN tells the story of this tumultuous and historical transfer through the voices of club captain and local boy Mark Noble, the manager Slaven Bilic, Hollywood actor Ray Winstone, the owners David Gold, David Sullivan and Karren Brady, the local traders and most importantly, through the fans on the terraces; the people who have stuck by the club through thick and thin and cemented a community together for more than a century.

Ratings and reviews

Another once great working class club that's sold it's soul for the chase of money. The follow up should be how the new stadium has destroyed the club.

As a lifelong Hammer I loved it, but it should appeal to football fans from other clubs too. Great insight into the club and fans in different walks of life during this difficult year.

West Ham.... this should be categorised as a comedy.
