Meet Nicki Paterson - the man a football manager once called "The Scottish Frank Lampard," and you're about to discover why.

Picture this: A 16-year-old lad from Hamilton, playing part-time football and feeling like his dreams are slipping away. Fast forward eight years, and he's sharing a training pitch with Thierry Henry at New York Red Bulls, living the American dream with a beautiful stadium, proper money, and crowds of 20,000.

But football, as every player knows, can be cruel.

One tackle. One injury. One phone call from home. Suddenly, Nicko's back in Scotland, sleeping in his mum and dad's spare room, wondering what the hell happens next. The contract offers have dried up. The lifestyle's gone. And he's got a family to support.

This is where most football stories end in disappointment. But Nicki's story? This is where it gets interesting.
