He was Chelsea in the film. I bet you every penny that you have that he is Millwall and goes fairly regularly. His dad played for Millwall.
Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers |

Looks like him. Apparently not. Anyway, how do they get into films and acting, even if typecast, apart from Bend it like Beckham. How does Guy Ritchie, hire Frank Harper?

Nick love the director used loads of people that he knew in his films from where he was from, ‘the Blue’ I think in Bermondsey.

Frank Harper’s first film was ‘Lock stock and two Smoking Barrels barrels’ by Madonna’s husband, Guy Ritchie. I then remember spotting him in that Bend it Like Beckham sh1t. Nick love films came later. There’s other actors in that film genre that have gone onto different roles but most don’t. One of the best ones was in War Horse after being in The Business and Green Street which have been done to death now. I think I’d rather watch a Hugh Grant film.

Thought he was in goodbye Charlie bright , maybe he wasn’t.

Slightly interestingly Harper was in ‘In the name of the father’ which was a highly regarded film and probably received awards. 2 top notch lead actors, Daniel Day-Lewis and Pete Postlethwaite. He was a couple more films before that too. I reckon his acting career has dried as has the short shelf life of British London gangster and hooligan films, unless they change the formula or add in more layers rather than ‘mug mug mug’ all the time. Some of the script was funny in ‘St George’s Day’ though. Craig Fairbrass makes you laugh without any intention.

Tony Denham, Craig Fairbrass and Tamar Hassan all go to my gym. Although they have made a living out of the South London films, they’ve all moved out to Bickley/Chislehurst.
