NOTES A professional footballers strike leads to some amateur players being recruited.
The film tries hard but doesn't come off.  Admirable cast but it's well worked story which needs better revision.
The deaf player is a minor part. He gives team members a chance to defend him when his disability is made fun of.  Of course he's big enough to defend himself but that 's not the point.
