Episode 1: Elland Road Cafe & Sandwich Bar – Leeds “It’s a lot more than what happens on the pitch, it’s a community, Leeds United are a community.” For many supporters, the match doesn’t start at kick-off or end at full time. It’s the conversations before the game, debates after and faces you see every week. We spoke to Martin and Lisa about the role of their club in the local community.

Episode 2: Homebaked Bakery – Liverpool “The match underpins you as a business, all them pubs, they need that match, they need the revenue off that to stay open the rest of the season.” Angela McKay, operations manager at Homebaked Bakery in Liverpool tells us their story of what the football community means for them. Selling nearly 1,000 pies each home game not only helps them employ people in the shop, but helps them support the wider community. For every £1 spent at Homebaked, £20.23 is created in social value, raising the question, what would happen to places like Homebaked if their local football club disappeared?

What Happens When Saturday Doesn’t Come? For millions, football is more than 90 minutes on a Saturday. It’s jobs, local businesses, community and a sense of belonging. For too long, fans have paid the price when football clubs fall into financial crisis. When a club is lost, it isn’t just a team that disappears. Communities lose part of their identity, their history, their jobs and a place that brings them together. We speak to five businesses across the country about what their football club means to them, and what would happen if it disappeared. Five documentaries coming from 28.09.26 Read more: footballregulator.org.uk/wha…
