Very good drama series that gave some good food for thought during a gloomy period for football back in the late 1980s.
A good plot involving a women manager of an unnamed lower division football team played by the excellent Cherie Lunghi.
She has many challenges to face with problematic players , a drippy husband and the irascible chairman played really well by Warren Clarke.
The stories are simplistic however I watched them again recently and there are some very good observations on pay per view football and out of town stadiums , something not commonplace back then.
The football match scenes are some of the best I have seen and you have to pinch yourself this club doesn't exist they are so realistic.
This was a great series and well worth a watch all these years later if you can acquire it.
