We were doing a google search for press coverage of the documentary and found this gem on how-do.co.uk, under the headline Dixie Dean documentary boosted by funding and Everton support. According to them we've "been boosted by receiving a funding purse of £300,000." Sadly not true. We've had a loan to buy some equipment for £15,000 and the budget for the film is £200,000.
How-do go on to say: "So far the company has interviewed a host of personalities connected to the club and the player himself." Do you want to tell them or shall we? We've tried to contact them to put them right - not heard anything back just yet.

I think that this production could be a lot better funded, if the club done more to advertise its cause. I myself haven't heard much about this film or this website, if the fans were made more aware of it, they could help generate the extra cash needed. I think maybe what is needed, is a more pro-active approach on behalf of yourselves and the club, through local radio station appearances, local newspaper updates about how things are going. Aswell as maybe a phone number were fans could donate through the cost of the call, as apposed to having to give credit card details away in order to donate. This service would be easier for me donate money and I'm pretty sure other fans too. You could also ask fanzine sites like BlueKipper to advertise the phone donation line, I'm pretty sure they would be much abliged.
If the fans were made more aware, I'm positive that more than enough money could be raised by the People, for the 'Peoples Legend'.
Good Luck with the film.
