Plot

An unemployed football fanatic named Mike Jacobs (played by Nick Nevern) becomes a major credit card fraudster and gangster. The movie depicts the lifestyles of luxury, frivolous spending and violent reprisals of its criminal underworld. Alongside the main character is Mike's old friend named Eddie (played by Simon Phillips) who introduces Mike into the business of the fraud. There is also the portrayal of Mike's girlfriend Katie (played by Rita Ramnani) who is faithful to Mike but not supportive of Mike's choice of lifestyle.

Reception

The Times described the film as "a dim-witted Football Factory knock-off". Film critic, Jason Solomons, described it a crudely scripted, dim British film. Screenjabber said the script was "peppered with humour throughout" and described some scenes as "a joy to watch."
