Kebab Kickers

The Red Lion Rovers have achieved the impossible: they have won the FA Cup. But for John Baxter, the "price of success" is a new and terrifying reality. His team of local heroes has qualified for the Europa League, a world of corporate glamour and ruthless professionalism for which they are completely unprepared. The newfound fame and pressure immediately fracture the team's soul. A brutal "civil war" erupts between the original Rovers and the new players signed to cope with the demanding season. Humiliated in Europe by the cauldron of Galatasaray's stadium and disgraced at home with a shock FA Cup exit, the team hits rock bottom, exploding in a final, bitter confrontation. Forced to rebuild from the ashes, Baxter forges "The Kebab Compact," a fragile peace treaty built on the team's working-class identity. But their renewed, misguided loyalty leads to a disastrous heist to save the club from bankruptcy, landing four key players in prison. Now depleted and playing for a cause greater than themselves, the Rovers must embark on a "redemption run" through Europe. They are no longer just a pub team; they are a band of brothers on a mission, ready to take on the giants of the game, including the kings of Europe, Real Madrid.
