Bid For A Signed Jonas Warm-Up Top
Written by Newcastle Utd
Fifteen Jonas Gutierrez warm-up tops, signed by the Magpies squad and staff, are being auctioned for charity
By Anthony Marshall - Newcastle United Managing Editor
United's players took to the St. James' Park pitch last month against Hull City wearing T-shirts in support of teammate Jonas Gutierrez, who is battling testicular cancer.
And now 15 of these special warm-up tops, signed by the Magpies squad and staff, are being auctioned for charity - with all proceeds going to men's health charity Movember.
Movember has been nominated by Gutierrez, and is the leading global organisation committed to changing the face of men's health.
It has raised £346million to date and funded more than 800 programmes in 21 countries, saving and improving the lives of men affected by prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems.
The 15 T-shirts have 'Howay man, get well soon' printed on the front, with 'Jonas 18' on the back, which is where the squad and staff have all put their signatures.
The Club's official charity, Newcastle United Foundation, are kindly running the auction via their Ebay page, but all proceeds from the auction will go straight to Movember.
The auctions began on Sunday and will last for one week.
