Exploring the seismic influence key players and managers from Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland had on English football between the 1960s and the start of the Premier League.

Liverpool’s rise from obscurity to glory, devised in the fabled Anfield Boot Room, was built on a set of ideals familiar in Merseyside: collectivism, community and loyalty. For in many ways, the nondescript sanctum under the grandstand stairs where Bill Shankly and his backroom staff worked together to orchestrate the club’s resurgence epitomised the spirit of the city. It was Liverpool in microcosm. Astonishing archive footage and a reminder of Liverpool’s collectivist culture reveals how the revered Boot Room Boys brought a city back from the brink and ushered in an unprecedented era of dominance.

Robbo is a remarkable feature film that tells the story of one of England and Manchester United’s greatest ever midfielders. From a working class kid in the North East of England to a national treasure honoured by the Queen, this new film gives a previously unseen insight into the man they call ‘Captain Marvel’.

Another long season ends with Manchester United having fought for the very highest honours. With the two domestic cups out of the way, they could concentrate on the Premiership and the Champions' League. The Champions' League campaign faltered at the semi-final stage despite some fine performances, but Premiership form went from strength to strength while their nearest rivals began to get the jitters. Alex Ferguson saw the golden apple of a fourth title in five years as within his grasp, and his team clinched the prize with games to spare.

In the west of Scotland, nobody bothers to argue that football is a genuinely popular art form, the theatre of the people.
