Funds raised to support Royal British Legion

Successful poppy shirt auctions.

A huge thank you to all Leeds United supporters that were able to bid for our matchworn and match issued shirts from the games against Leicester City and Plymouth Argyle.

The first-team squad wore poppy-adorned shirts for both of these games as we paid our respects to past and present servicemen and women around Remembrance Day, with the shirts then being made available for auction to raise funds for the Royal British Legion's annual Poppy Appeal.

All of the shirts that were donated to the Royal British Legion managed to raise an incredible £23,112 through auction, with supporters across the world bidding for those available.

Each shirt was individually signed by the respecitve player who wore it, both on the front by the poppy and on the back by their name, meaning those who managed to win now have a unique piece of sporting history.

Once again, a massive thank you to everyone that has helped to support the 2023/24 Poppy Appeal.
