A Premier League vintage Town replica shirt has, at the time of writing, reached the £132 mark on eBay as Town fans join their counterparts from across the country in lending their support to crisis club Plymouth Argyle.
TWTD user SouperJim is auctioning a 2001/02 era shirt with Mark Venus’s name emblazoned across the back to raise funds for the Green Taverners, who are asking fans of other clubs to auction their football memorabilia.
The auctions are just one aspect of supporter-led attempts to help Plymouth's battle for survival. The Pilgrims’ home game against Macclesfield on Saturday 24th September has been declared Fans Re-United Day by Brighton supporters, keen to help out another club in return for the assistance they received from followers of teams around the country during their darkest hours at the end of the 1990s.
Back in 1997 the Seagulls staged the first ever Fans United Day when supporters of clubs, including Town, came along to their home game against Hartlepool United wearing their side’s colours to give them their backing and help raise funds.
To find out more about Fans Re-United Day, which coincides with Town’s visit to Middlesbrough, there is a Facebook page, while more details can be found here. Follow developments regarding Fans Re-United on Twitter.
