Download 4. 'This Isn't Millions, It's Billions’

Rebecca Lucy Taylor (Self Esteem), Adam Oxley and Simon Thake, explore competing ambitions, local pride and the growing excitement surrounding Sheffield FC's future.

Away from the pitch Sheffield FC receives two game-changing offers. One billionaire-backed investment or a local vision led by Reverend and the Makers singer Jon McClure.

For a club that has spent years battling financial uncertainty, questions about its home, and life in the ninth tier of English football, the possibilities are extraordinary.

Meanwhile, on the pitch, a gruelling run of fixtures leaves promotion hopes hanging in the balance as the season reaches a crucial stage.

Featured song: Reverend and The Makers - Heavyweight Champion of the World.
