Sometimes growing up can be the hardest game of all.

Jimmy Grimble would do anything to become a football pro, but a lack of self-confidence on the pitch is standing between him and his childhood dream. His misery is compounded further when his mother (Gina McKee) invites her latest moronic boyfriend to move in rather than the man she really wants, Harry (Ray Winstone).

However, Jimmy's luck changes when he meets a mysterious old baglady who gives him a pair of magic football boots. And although sceptical at first, it's not long before Jimmy is scoring hat tricks and even managing to help his coach (Robert Carlyle) rediscover his passion for the game.

However, just before kick off on the day of the school cup final, the boots go missing. Will Jimmy's confidence desert him or will his supporters be singing, "There's only one Jimmy Grimble" at full time?
