Unforgiven

All Patrick's carefully laid plans begin to unravel thanks to Fletch, but the star striker and Tash are devastated by Jamie's death and are struggling to cope. Mohamed Al Fayed guest stars as himself.

The team has been once again reunited with their families after the siege. Phil tells them that all the first team need to go upstairs for a meeting. Karl Fletcher is the only one that is allowed to miss the meeting. He goes straight to the hospital with Abi. He apologises for the timing but proceeds to make them follow him upstairs. The police are in the office and tell the team that they cannot tell anyone that Doyle has been throwing games. The officer tells them that they need Patrick to lead them to the betting syndicate. If Patrick knows then he'll disappear. The team agree they'll stay silent. The two detectives leave but Phil closes the door behind them and tells the team to wait. He tells them that it is up to the FA whether they let Harchester replay the game to keep them in the Premiership, but if they hear anything about match fixing then the result 1-1, will stand and Harchester will go down.

Tash is back at home and is distraught. The phone rings and when the answer phone comes on, playing Jamie's voice she runs upstairs. Phil is on the phone and asks Jeff if she can keep everything she heard quiet. Meanwhile, Karl is waiting at the hospital with Abi.

Stuart is with the team out on the training pitch. He tells them that the last thing they feel like doing is playing football but they have to prepare for a cup final and the replay against Everton. Karl arrives explaining that he'll be called when he can see Abi and he wants to prepare for the final.

Tash tells her Dad that if Phil had come out about the bet in the first place and not been afraid of being sued, Jamie wouldn't have died. She tells Jeff that she is going to make Phil Wallis pay for wrecking her life.

Back at the club, the cup final tickets arrive. Ryan receives his. Nikki realizes she has some for Jamie, Ryan offers to give them to Tash and Nikki thankfully agrees.

Karl receives a call from the hospital and makes her way to see Abi. When she awakes they hear the bad news that she will never be able to have children.

Tash arrives at the club and hears Phil with a reporter saying how he is very sorry for Jamie's family. Phil ushers the journalists out of the room. Tash lays into him and explains that he'll make the club pay; she storms out to be alone.

The police are with Jacqui and ask her to go undercover to catch Patrick Doyle out. She tells them she doesn't want to get involved. The police explain that if she doesn't help them then she'll face prison.

The team have gone to see Alan Rothman, who has recovered from his heart attack and is resting in hospital. He tells the team that he'll be back soon. They go to see Abi but realize something is wrong and leave.

Phil arrives home to find the police in his house. Jacqui tells him that she's going to help out to catch Patrick. Phil does not seem so happy. He tells the police that he doesn't want her helping out. The police explain that she'll be safe and that she should be able to get a confession out of him straight away and then arrest him.

Phil goes round to see Patrick. He tells him that his wife will be coming, wired up and he must not give a confession. Phil tells him that he'll get what he deserves when his team wins. Death.

Clyde has been hit hard by the whole situation. He is still traumatized about thinking how he might have died when he was found in the toilet. Ryan, who is at the bar, is asked by someone if he wants to sell his tickets for a lot of money. The man, called Steve, leaves his number with Ryan.

Back at the Barons, Linzie asks Tash if she should cancel Hopes birthday party. Tash tells her that she has more important things to worry about and storms off.

Training at the club has finished and Nikki is handing out the player's tickets. Ryan asks Marcel if he needs his tickets and has no luck getting them. He offers to give Fletch his tickets as he isn't at training but Nikki tells him that she'll do it.

Jacqui, fully wired, goes to see Patrick. She quizzes him about the bet but Patrick acts completely blank, not giving anything away.

Tash sees Karl on the street and tells him that he doesn't even care that Jamie is dead. Fletch tries to tell her that he's been with his wife in hospital but she doesn't listen. She storms into the house and Karl follows her. Tash tells Karl that it's his fault he's dead as he knew about the bet but did nothing. Karl reminds him that he Jamie had done all this for money when Tash finds some photos. She tells Karl that Jamie didn't do it for the money and wanted to stop but Patrick blackmailed him and threatened his family.

Jacqui is ushered out of Patrick's room. She apologises to Phil but he has already stormed off after hearing that they Jacqui and Patrick were sleeping with each other when the siege took place.

The police are still watching Patrick's room and notice he is packing his bags. The police have nothing they can arrest Patrick for and are about to give up when Karl Fletcher storms into Patrick's room. He punches him for blackmailing Jamie. Patrick pulls up Fletch's shirt believing he is also wired but finds nothing there. The police decide to stay put to see what information they can get. Fletch begins to strangle Doyle, Patrick says enough allowed, and so the police storm in and arrest him.

Fletch rushes over to see the team, telling them that he has got Patrick arrested. They cannot believe it and are not happy, Karl doesn't realize why though. Meanwhile, Ryan is looking for tickets and finds Karl's tickets. The players go to see Phil and tell him what has happened.

The FA hold a press meeting along with Phil Wallis telling the press that they are very sorry with what has happened but it is a very serious offence. Phil explains that Harchester should not be deducted points because they will then be relegated. He tells the press that if the FA relegates Harchester then the bet syndicate will be getting exactly what they want and they'll be punishing the innocent.

Tash arrives at the club and tells Phil that she is suing Harchester United for every penny they've got. Meanwhile, back at her house, Jeff and Linzie are setting up everything for Hope's first birthday. She arrives home to a house load of parents and babies and is not happy. She tells everyone to get out.

Back at training, the team decides to petition to get as many people as possible to say they want the Dragons to play. Ryan signs autographs, Curtis, Clyde and Marcel hold press conferences, Fletch even meets up with Al Fayed and they both together speak to Sky Sports. Ryan, signing autographs, is met by Steve. They meet in the lift. He hands over his five tickets and Karl's five. He then gives over Jamie's. Steve tells him that he can't use Jamie's tickets as no proper Harchester fan would want to dance up and down on Jamie's grave.

Fletch goes round to see Tash with a present for Hope. Tash opens the present to find a locket, Tash one side and Jamie the other. She bursts into tears.

The next day, day they travel to Cardiff, the team are in the players' lounge having breakfast. Sky Sports comes on and they see that Natasha is giving an exclusive. They dread for what she is going to say but are shocked to hear her say good words and tell the FA that they must let Harchester play.

Phil goes to see the FA, and begins his case to persuade them to let Harchester play. They tell Phil that the club must be punished. The coach back at the club is about to leave when Phil gets on board. He tells the team that it's bad news.
