When Bury FC collapsed last August 2019, a group of locals made it their mission to bring football back to their town - against massive odds.

Bury was one of the oldest clubs in English football, at the heart of the local community for more than 130 years. When it was expelled from the 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 follows Chris Murray and his friends over the course of 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.
