00:02 Fergus Souter, you and I are gonna make history.
00:06 That's the reason I brought you here.
00:08 [MUSIC]
00:10 Only gentlemen have lifted the cup.
00:12 Men can find schools with fine clothes, fine lives.
00:17 [MUSIC]
00:19 Imagine what it would mean to see men like us lifting.
00:23 That's the dream.
00:24 [MUSIC]
00:27 Business of football is growing.
00:29 You're afraid of them, aren't you?
00:30 You're afraid new teams like Darwin will take over you again.
00:33 We invented it for gentlemen.
00:35 [MUSIC]
00:40 I've seen you play.
00:41 You're a genius.
00:42 People won't stop shouting your name.
00:44 [MUSIC]
00:46 The market is saturated.
00:48 Our mills are struggling to turn a profit.
00:50 Whilst our wages are being cut, you are paying them to play football.
00:53 But that's against the rules.
00:54 Rivalry's good for business.
00:57 Their stomachs will be empty long before our pockets.
01:00 [MUSIC]
01:03 I love you, Arthur.
01:04 But this game brings out the worst in me.
01:07 There are people who don't think working men should be playing the game.
01:10 I feel like a fraud.
01:12 You've got a gift, son.
01:14 A chance to get out of this life.
01:17 I can't keep thinking about the life that might have been.
01:20 I know we have to find a way through this.
01:22 I care about the people that live here.
01:23 I hate to think they've been walked over by anyone.
01:26 That's an excuse to riot, is it?
01:27 [MUSIC]
01:28 Don't you see what's happening?
01:30 We're not free to live our lives.
01:32 They're desperate.
01:32 They want a better life.
01:33 And who can blame them?
01:34 The time for talking is over!
01:36 [MUSIC]
01:40 The only way to show them that they're wrong is to beat them.
01:43 [MUSIC]
01:44 This is bigger than football.
01:46 Bigger than any of us.
01:47 This is your dream, Fergus.
01:48 Remember that.
01:49 [MUSIC]
01:54 It's clear what the people want.
