Tommy Moon's chances at becoming a footballer are ruined in Wednesday's episode of EastEnders (7:30 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings)

A nosey Sam Mitchell interrupts Kat Slater and Tommy Moon's meeting with the football coach, Collin.

Martin Fowler supports Kat when she confides in him about Tommy and she opens a letter about Tommy's police case.

Janine Butcher tells Sonia Fowler and Scarlett Moon that if she gets custody of her, they will be moving to Australia.

Sonia tells Tommy Moon the news and unintentionally upsets him, but he puts on a brave face and his mind reverts back to becoming a footballer.

At The Queen Vic, Sam overhears Martin talking to Nancy Carter and Zack Hudson about the knife incident. Noticing that the coach is nearby, Sam goes out of her way to make sure that he hears the conversation and decides to loudly join in their chat.

The coach tells Kat that they can't have Tommy on the team and she's left devastated. She confronts Sam thinking that she was the culprit, but after finding out the truth, she is furious with Martin, Zack and Nancy for destroying Tommy's opportunity.
