DIALOGUE:

WILL:
You’ll be ok. The truth is, you didn’t go from being the worst team in the league into being the best because of me. You did that yourselves. You had the potential right from the start, all you needed was a small nudge. A reason to fight, to try harder, to put your all into doing something you love.
LOUISE:
We would never have managed that without you. We got through because of your strength.

LYRICS:

WILL:
You’re wrong. You got through because of your own strength. I’m not strong. I came to you as a drunk, womanising, washed up has been of a man. I was a mere shadow of the star you probably saw on TV or read about for the past decade or so. Because I let the pressures of fame go to my head. I couldn’t take the heat because I was weak. Truth is I only found any strength at all left because of all of you.

I walked this road, eyes turned away
Lost my compass, went astray
You might have thought I was made of steel
But it took this team to teach me what's real
You've got the flame that was always there
The grit to push when the world's unfair
Search your soul, let the strength unfold
You're the reason this fight turns bold

WILL & TEAM
We'll stand our ground, lift each other higher
Every soul here fuels this fire
We'll stand our ground and make our stand
It's our time, we've got the upper hand

WILL
I thought I was here to lead, but it's you who showed me the way
You've got what it takes to win this

NANCY
We've been knocked down, bruised and torn
GEMMA
Still we rise like the breaking dawn
ANNIE
They can't break us, we've come too far
LOUISE
We're gonna show them who we really are
WILL
Feel the heartbeat racing inside
Stand tall together, no need to hide
We'll push through the fear, reach for the sky
The time is now, let's rise and fly

ALL
We'll stand our ground, lift each other higher
Every soul here fuels this fire
We'll stand our ground and make our stand
It's our time, we've got the upper hand

JOANNA
Feel the heartbeat racing inside
Stand tall together, no need to hide
GEMMA
We'll push through the fear, reach for the sky
The time is now, let's rise and fly

NICK
So take this moment, own the fight
Trust in yourselves, you'll make it right
Every fall leads to something great
This is our chance, let's seal our fate

WILL
Look at yourselves, you've done more than just play, you've shown heart Now, go show them what you're made of

ALL
We'll stand our ground, lift each other higher
Every soul (every soul) here fuels this fire
We'll stand our ground and make our stand
This is our time, we've got the upper hand

We'll stand our ground, we'll stand our ground!

BARRY
And out come the Bluechester team
And would you look at the difference in their faces
They finished the first half with a lot of doom and gloom
But somehow I can sense a real fire in their posture, the way they hold themselves. It's certainly not over yet!

ENSEMBLE
We'll stand our ground, lift each other higher
Every soul here fuels this fire
We'll stand our ground and make our stand
This is our time, we've got the upper hand

We'll stand our ground, lift each other higher
Every soul here fuels this fire
We'll stand our ground and make our stand
This is our time, we've got the upper hand

*Just as NANCY was having a run on goal she is suddenly tripped very deliberately by RUBY, the song abruptly stops and the ref blows the final whistle with a 3-3 tie. Loud boos play on the Sfx from the crowd
At this point, BARRY suddenly throws down his hat and acts totally out of character, having been very well spoken, calm, objective and unbiased as a play by play commentator so far, he suddenly breaks his professionalism completely.*
