the way of your dreams.

Go on. Will!

Well. done. And again.

And again. well done.

It's a goal! You scored a goal!

This was your Mum's favourite

place in the world.

Do you remember?

- Race ya!

- On.

What a noisy place to belong.

On the Ning Nang Nong?

- Where the cows go bong.

- And the monkeys all say boo.

- There's a Nong Nang Ning.

- Where the trees go ping.

- And the tea pots...

- Jibber jabber joo.

- On the Nong Ning Nang.

- Where the mice go clang.

And you just can't catch

them when they do.

- So. it's Nong... So. it's...

- Nong Nang...

- Ning Nang Nong!

- Cows go Bong!

Nong Nang Ning!

Trees go Ping!

Nong Ning Nang! Mice go.

What a noisy place to belong.

Is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nongl.

Again!

This is amazing.

That's two bulls eyes already.

And there's number three.

Did Sister Carmel teach you this?

Going to turn you professional.

Son.

You keep it up. Will.

I might book you in with an agent.

Put this show on the road.

Cheers. Davey. 'Ay son.

Pay attention.

You are in the presence of the

a man of his word.

Yeah, our word's about the only thing the

government ain't taken away from us!

- Ay. Will.

Did you tell Davey about your dream?

No.

He dreamt that Liverpool

knocks out Chelsea onenil

in the Champions League semi.

Shouldn't a boy your age

be dreaming about girls?

No. it's Liverpool. onenil.

What odds do you

think we can get?

On a win? Or a onenil win?

- Onenil.

- And Garcia scores.

- Not Gerrard?

- Garcia.

- Lenny. you hear that?

- I'm on it.

- What's the odds?

- Eleven to one.

How's about a ton?

You got to play to win. mate.

Or don't they teach you

that at school no more?

One hundred pounds.

Liverpool to win.

Garcia to score.

So. we're going to win

eleven hundred pounds?

Ask him.

Well. we'll need some

spending money for our trip.

Trip?

What trip?

What's that?

What's what?

"You'll Never Walk Alone")

When you walk through a storm.

Hold your head up high... J.

- The Champions League Final?

- Yeah. you ever heard of it?

- Are we going?

- You're holding the tickets. aren't you?

I never had anywhere

to go before.

Well. now you do!

But these must have

cost you a bomb.

I got an offer I

couldn't refuse.

Anyway. we ever been

to Istanbul together?

No.

We ever been to the Champions League

final together to watch Liverpool?

No.

So. the way I see it.

Now that we're eating our meals together.

Travelling together. training together.

There's nothing in the

world that we can't do.

As long as we're together.

Walk on... J.

Come on. son.

Through the wind.

Walk on through the rain.

Though your dreams be tossed.

And blown.

Walk on.

Wa-alk o-on

With hope in your heart.

And you'll never walk alone.

You'll never walk.

Alone J.

Hey. Will.

Do you think we can play

football with your Dad again?

Are you turning into a Red?

- I'll ask.

- Thanks.

Dam.

Dad?

Dam.

Will. let me in!

Where is he? Where is he?

- He's gone to heaven.

- He was just here!

No. Will. no.

- You chased him away. it's your fault!

- He had a brain haemorrhage.

He fell asleep and didn't wake up.

Do you understand?

- You liar!

- I'm sorry. mate.

He's not here. he's gone.

No! He should be here with me!

- With me! That's the best place!

- I know. I know.

He should be here with me.

Dam.

One more thing.

Can you take me. Davey?

My brother is getting married

on that day in London.

I'm his best man.

Will...

Let me keep the tickets.

Until we work out what to do.

Something so precious shouldn't

be risked in your room.

- They still belong to me.

- Of course.

And no one is going

to take them from you

I'm alone.

You're not alone.

Will.

You'll always have God.

Can God take me to Istanbul?

God can take you

anywhere you want.

All you need is faith.

Looks like Hatchet Face finally

got herself a boyfriend.

He's not her boyfriend.

He brought my dad's stuff

over from the pub.

Including the tickets?

- Let's see 'em.

- I don't have them.

- Who does?

- Sister Carmel.

What does she care

about football?

She's holding them for me until they

work out who can take me to the match.

The crook's gonna sell

'em and pocket the cash.

Do you think?

There's only one thing worse than a nun.

And that's a thief!

She'll steal your tickets just

like she stole your football!

- But she gave the football back.

- For now.

Doesn't matter anyway.

You're probably right.

The fact is Liverpool

has to win.

And we all know that's

never going to happen.

It comes down to results.

Liverpool loses. you stay.

Liverpool wins... you go.

'It's a '60s, '70s, and

'80s revival night at Anfield.

'The shouting is

about to begin.'

The crying's about to begin.'

'The Liverpool fans belt

out their famous anthem.'

'You'll Never Walk Alone.'

'All they can do is sing their hearts out.

Will their team home.'

'Gerrard with space,

tapped-in towards Bares.'

'He's beaten Cech to it.

Now the goalkeeper made contact.'

'Luis Garcia.

Was it across the line?'

'Goal! Luis Garcia!'

- Bollocks!

- Yes!

'The first goal of the

semi-final is a Liverpool goal.'

'It's Lampard this time. Oh.

Really good save by Dudek.'

'Tossed in towards John Terry.

Dudek comes for it. it's Gudjohnsen...'

'oh. he's missed.'

'That's how close Chelsea

came to the final.'

'All the youngsters on the Kop

will have had to hear all about it'

'from their fathers

and grandfathers.'

'the good old days.

Well they're back.'

'The time has come'

'for Liverpool to play in yet

another European Cup Final.'

'Rome. Wembley. Paris.

Brussels. And now Istanbul.'

- 'May the 25th. it's a date!'

- Can you believe it?

It's just like

your bloody dream.

Lot of good it does me.

If Chelsea were playing in the

finals and I had a ticket.

A seven nation army couldn't

stop me from going.

Me neither.

How am I going to pay for it?

The money you just won

on your dad's bet.

Look. not going is a kick

in the balls to you.

To your father.

And to football fans everywhere.

Hatchet Face doesn't care about this match.

Will, but you have rights.

- That's right. Will.

- I've been reading up on the Magna Carta.

- Know anything about it?

- Oh. I do.

- In 1215 common law was established...

- Shhh!

Way back when some blokes got

together and told King John

that he couldn't go around getting

his jollies however he wanted...

and uh... Simon?

There were legal limits to his whims and diatribes.

Such as Habeas Corpus.

What's that got to do with me?

Simple.

Hatchet Face is trampling on your

rights as a free Englishman.

- Incoming!

- Ah, bonjour.

Stop!

Will? Come on. playtime is over.

Listen. Gents!

As I understand it. Will.

You need to get from here to there.

Don't worry. mate.

It looks further away on

a map than it really is.

- You'll likely go through Germany...

- Wiener Schnitzel.

- Austria...

- Sacher Torte.

- Hungary...

- Nothing to eat there.

- And Bulgaria...

- Famous for their karvarrna.

- What?
