Storeroom Shirt Auction and Pop up shop - Saturday 29th Dec - Players’ Bar before the match v Aldershot
Kitman Clive was busy clearing up the changing room after the Boxing Day win v Bromley and was taking down 10 shirts which were hanging up in the drying room to make room for the latest wash. These are current 2018/19 home and away shirts which were worn by U’s stars who have subsequently moved on from the club - Ross Lafayette, Dan Wishart, Charlie Clough, Aaron Drinan, Simon Downer, Dan Spence...and one worn by the legend Dundo himself.
There was born a new idea. Why not give U’s fans the chance to own these shirts rather than they be consigned to a pile in the Storeroom?
So; here’s the plan. Before each of the next ten home matches, one of these shirts will be auctioned in the Players’ Bar at 2:35pm and claimed by the highest bidder. No minimum amount will be imposed. A great chance to pick up the shirt worn by one of those terrific players at an affordable price!
If you can’t make the game in question or can’t make it to the bar at that time to bid for a shirt, you can e mail me your bid (your start price and the maximum you’d be prepared to pay) in advance to adrian.barry@suttonunited.net. Should be fun!
The first shirt to be auctioned will be this Saturday 29th at 2:35pm before the match v Aldershot and will be the first of two home shirts available and worn by ROSS LAFAYETTE.
We shall advise which shirt will be auctioned before each subsequent home game during the week of the game.
Kitman Clive has also volunteered to arrange for the shirt you buy to be signed by a current U’s player or players ,if you wish, at no extra charge.
This auction will take place as the pop up shop closes. Open from 1:45pm, also in the Players’ Bar, Scarves, gloves and beanie hats (all just £8) plus mugs and samples of replica shirts and training shirts will be available to buy and browse. Come along and say hello!
