Calling all Bury supporters...
3:03pm Tuesday 16th March 2010 in Bury FC By Marc Higginson
ARE you the UK’s biggest football fan?
If so, you could be in line to win a holiday for two to South Africa worth £7,000.
Continental Tyres, one of the official sponsors of the 2010 World Cup, are looking for the most devoted fan in the country.
They want to know what lengths you have gone to in order to get to a match - the more extreme, the better.
So far, the competition has heard from a fan who drove from London to Moscow to get to the Champions League Final, somebody who came all the way from Australia to see Blackburn Rovers play, only to be thwarted by a delayed train and never got to the match, and one person who insisted on going to a match against doctors orders before major surgery.
Is your story better than this?
If so, fill out the entry form at www.continentalsbiggame.co.uk and explain, in no more than 500 words, the effort and sacrifices you made not to miss a big game. You can also share your stories with Bury Times readers by writing in the comments box below.
The deadline for entries is April 12 and a judging panel will then select 10 quarter finalists, which will then be whittled down to four semi-finalists.
Each of these semi-finalists will then have to make a video, telling the world why they deserve to scoop the top spot. The public will then vote for the winner.
