New Town number three Tyrone Mings has offered to buy fans new home shirts, the supporters having bought shirts for the season ahead and had the defender’s old number 15 printed on them.

The 21-year-old’s switch of shirts was announced by the club earlier today, leading to a couple of exchanges on Twitter in which the left-back made the offers.

It’s not the first time Mings, 21, has shown his generous side on Twitter. In March 2013 the former Chippenham Town man supplied match tickets to a “skint” fan.

hampstead_blue added 13:05 - Jul 21 I bought the wrong vintage claret at the weekend. Do you think Mings would pony-up and buy me the 2005 Chateaux Margeaux?

Richhibb added 13:29 - Jul 21 He may have a few more after people see this... he seems to have a bit of a cult following through social media. Anyone got any views on his football ability?? What I have seen he is great for us in the air, gets forward well and his crossing wasn't bad at all... but his play on the ground needs some working on. Hopefully he will have a strong season but I have my doubts
