We Are United

While new club owners Phil and Jacqui struggle to cope, Jamie and Tash face an uncertain future. Jeff thinks he has the answer, but it will mean Jamie leaving Harchester. What will he do?

Phil Wallis, the lottery winner and owner of the club is soaking up what he has bought on Harchester's very own pitch. His dream has come true and he is 100% into making sure it will be a success. Phil is told by his intelligent wife that he should do what he wants at his club. The Chairman still over excited decides what he really wants to do is go and watch the players train. Phil is still obviously star struck and cannot believe his eyes when he is seeing his favourite players less than two feet away kicking the ball at goal.

Meanwhile, at The Barons, Robbie & Tash are still at it with each other even though Jamie is due to be home soon. Tash and Hope go on their way to pick up their Husband and Dad, Jamie, who is due to be let out of the hospital today. Tash is still upset that Jamie is not his normal self and is even more upset when she finds out he relates the whole coach crash incident to Hope, therefore he does not want to speak, hold or touch her.

Another busy day at The Dragons Lair and Phil is talking to the manager, who wants Harchester to go down, about the team. Of course Phil is a true football fan at heart, and as far as the team is concerned he thinks with his heart and not his business head! As a fan he does not see past the performance on the pitch and does not realise what Robbie Walsh has been through thus issuing he wants the player sold. Patrick, who has no problem with this, agrees. He knows that Robbie can be a brilliant player but seeing this as a chance to offload him he takes it. This makes the bet is even easier to make happen with Harchester losing a quality midfielder.

Back at The Barons, Tash is struggling to get used to Jamie, who is still not well and not his normal self. Meanwhile, Jeff Stein see's an opportunity to soften up the awe struck Chairman and tries to persuade Phil to handle the business side of things by himself and not involve Jacqui, who Jeff knows is a very intelligent woman. When Jeff is finished, he is set to deliver Tash some very bad news, for her anyway. She is told that Jamie can get completely sorted out and back to his normal self in a brilliant clinic. There's one problem though… It's in LA! Tash is devastated when she realised she may not see Jamie for another few months.

The next day Robbie asks Jeff if he can become his new agent, so when Jeff finds out that Phil wants him gone, you can tell he is not too pleased. As the day turns into night Jacqui receives a nasty surprise when her ‘romantic evening' end up being a party for the players. Phil is so star struck he becomes blind from all the people taking the mick out of him, unlike the embarrassed Jacqui. At the same party Tash decides that if her marriage with Jamie is going to hold out and stay together she must go to LA with him. On the other side of the room Phil and Robbie have a good talk with each other. Phil realises things aren't as simple as they seem and decides he does not wish to sell Robbie, the young star at all. As the party starts to end Phil gives Jacqui an amazing present, a beautiful diamond necklace, worth half a million pounds. This does not stop her being angered by her husband's immaturity though.

Harchester's match this week is against Newcastle United. The game starts with The Magpies taking a deserved lead. The second half begins and things change. Harchester look a lot more dominant. To the excitement of the Chairman, Sabatier scores the equalizer once again. The second comes minutes later from Robbie Walsh. Harchester win the match 2-1.

Jamie leaves for LA, alone. He decides he must go alone if he is to get better and Tash is heartbroken. She knows that if she is without Jamie she will be faced with a lot of temptations, one's that she cannot deal with.
