Long shot
With the first team selection coming up, Jimmy looks certain to be picked. But when his lucky sock goes missing, he's left in doubt. Then a note appears, telling Jimmy he'll get his sock back, but only if he walks the forbidden and haunted stadium ground at midnight. Will he risk breaking school rules or can Roddy help him lay his ghosts to rest?
