A business man's son has to choose between playing for his father's team and their rivals in a football match. He does the right thing and romantically impresses his father's secretary.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "The film covers cup ties, interspersed with song, dance and love, and there is a lot of slapstick comedy which makes the audience laugh. In fact, it is a farce pure and simple, and a rather painful one at that. Even that grand comic Violet Farebrother is unable to produce anything but indulgent smiles; and those provincial favourites Sandy Powell and Dan Young do their best with a badly constructed story."[3]
Kine Weekly wrote: "The film is on a pretty safe pitch in dealing with football and the machinations of unscrupulous gamblers give sturdy background to its topical and crazy story. Popular romance provides the feminine touch, while the antics of Joe and the fellow inmates of his boarding house furnish most of the slapstick interludes. The humour is far from subtle, but the show is little the worse for concentrating on belly laughs. Its only real fault, and that's common to most British productions, is its length."[4]
