When Bury FC collapsed in August 2019, a group of locals made it their mission to bring football back to their town - against massive odds.
Bury FC was one of the oldest clubs in English football.
It had been at the heart of the local community for more than 130 years. When it was expelled from the English Football League, it hit the town hard. A group of fans decided to do something. They launched a new club - a team ‘by the fans, for the fans’. BBC Three followed Chris Murray and his friends for 12 months, getting amazing behind-the-scenes access to the birth of a new football club and seeing what it really takes to make dreams a reality.
