The hunt is on for Britain's Biggest Football Fan.
To celebrate being an official sponsor of the 2010 FIFA World Cup(tm) in South Africa, Continental Tyres wants to find a dedicated fan with a �7,000 holiday in South Africa as the prize in the winner-takes-all competition.
So far the organisers have heard from:

A fan who travelled from Ireland and nearly missed his exams
One 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
