The First Team

New signing Mattie Sullivan arrives at the club but a meeting with eccentric chairman Mark Crane leads him to wonder if he has been signed by mistake. As if that wasn’t bad enough, club hardman Petey Brooks takes a dislike to him, and legendary Italian manager Cesare is nowhere to be found.

Mattie befriends the team's star player Carlos Velez. Meanwhile, Jack plucks up courage to date a girl he met online, and Benji is approached by a mysterious Malaysian businessman.

Mattie, Benji and Jack head out for the afternoon, determined to keep out of trouble, but a chance meeting with the friendly Nicola leads to a very tricky situation.

Petey insists that Mattie, Benji and Jack come to his BBQ. Meanwhile, Jack's dad oversteps by posting club business on social media, and Cesare's job as manager looks uncertain.

The chairman announces a caretaker manager. After a poor start, the team is forced to attend a pub night as an apology to the fans. Benji employs a social media manager.

Chris Booth's methods are bringing results, but Petey plots to bring an end to his run of success. Meanwhile, Jack gets a girlfriend and plans a special party with a romantic surprise, Benji has had enough of his social media manager and tries to fire him, and Mattie finds himself trying to protect Chris from a shocking revelation.
