Leicester, 2015. In his mid-fifties, unemployed and divorced, wannabe rock guitarist Stan Booker is sick of drifting through life. Saying goodbye to the old, he takes charge of his life, joining forces with his lifelong friend Phil to start a business and seeks out new challenges to fulfil his rock dreams.
A relationship is soon on the cards as he meets an unlikely match in twice-divorced Mandy, and with his newfound drive propelling him forward he recruits five musicians with diverse backgrounds and characters for the band, aptly named Leicester Rocks. Of course, he knows the chances of them making a success of things is on a par with the 5000:1 odds against Leicester City winning the English Premier League title. But a proud city patriot, he decides it’s about time everyone knows just how much Leicester ‘rocks’ - and what better way to showcase it?
As Leicester City’s star rises, both Stan and Phil find their own dreams within reach, but trouble for these through-and-through Leicester heroes is never far away. Love and loyalties will be tested, ambitions threatened, and attitudes challenged as the last kick-off approaches. Will it be the final whistle or will Stan and Phil finally hit all the right notes?
