New additions to the Football Auction

FOOTBALL fans from around the country will soon be able to bid for a signed Tottenham FC shirt.

Footballer Darren Bent has said he will be donating a signed football shirt to our online auction to help raise money for the Warren Hay Road Safety Action Group.

The shirt is due to be added to the auction on Friday, February 22.

Other items recently added to the auction include a Queens Park Ranger FC signed banner and a selection of more than 20 Millwall FC match programmes dating back to the 1960s.

There will also be a West Ham signed shirt, which will be up for auction in the next few days.

The auction is off to a great start with pledges totalling almost £500.

The highest bid received so far is £110 for a signed Middlesbrough FC shirt.

A football signed by the Chelsea squad is going for the bargain sum of just £63.

Lots include signed football from Peterborough United and a signed shirt from Middlesbrough FC.

There are also items available from Arsenal, Sunderland, Everton and Liverpool as well as a host of smaller clubs which all donated the items for the charity auction.

Bidding will continue until 5pm on March 7, so there is still plenty of time to try to secure the item that has caught your eye.

All the money raised will be put towards road safety improvements on the A141 in Huntingdon where 16-year-old Warren Hay was knocked down and killed by a car.

The Chelsea fan had been crossing the road to watch a football match at Jubilee Park.

Cambridgeshire County Council has agreed to support a scheme to install a light controlled crossing on the road, but further funding is needed.

Both Huntingdon Town Council and Huntingdonshire District Council are looking at the possibility of providing some funding.
