Plot
Christie is one of life’s dreamers. Having lost his job, his clothes,
his girlfriend and all of his dignity he decides to turn his life around.
With the help of his small band of rather odd friends he starts a five aside
football team called “No Skillz” and enters them into the local
Power League.
Christie’s attempt to win back his girlfriend Ruby backfires
when No Skillz are humiliated on the pitch and Ruby takes a fancy to one of
the opposing players.
But all is not lost for Christie as Nicola, the attractive
Power League receptionist, is charmed by his naive enthusiasm.
