When Saturday Comes

Jimmy Muir (Sean Bean) comes from a typical gritty, northern town where there are only two options : working down the pit, or in a factory.

But Jimmy has other ideas - he dreams of becoming a professional footballer. Encouraged by his girlfriend (Emily Lloyd), he plays every week for the local amateur team. But when he's spotted by local talent scout Ken (Pete Potlethwaiste) , Jimmy finally has the chance to fulfil his life's ambition. Confronted by a bitter and unsupportive father, hard-drinking friends, and a lifetime of bad habits has Jimmy the will to achieve his ultimate goal?
