  George is a Sheffield United supporter through and through. Since his parents' business hit a losing streak though, the closest he's got to a match is the local radio commentary. Now with Christmas approaching, no heating or hot water and nothing but dripping sandwiches to eat, George finds his family loyalty tested to the limit. For what if that loyalty means having to wear the shirt of your team's deadly rivals? Or turning down a dream holiday in the sun? To poor George, things look bleak indeed. But then, as they say in football, it's a game of two halves and, when George finally finds himself on the plane to sunny climes, it seems that victory could yet be snatched from the jaws of defeat, even in extra time!
