Big Coat Day may have been hit by the weather but we have a job to finish, so Son of Big Coat Day will be the 16th January Bradford Park Avenue fixture when homeless organisations, Boaz Trust and Mustard Tree will bring their van again for the collection between 1pm and 3pm.
In an important new development, Sir Richard Lease, Leader of Manchester City Council is calling for support.
Former United player
Lee Sharpe has given his backing and Hollyoaks actor,
Carley Stenson, says: "I’ll get rooting through my wardrobe."
James Nesbitt is also offering support and
John Henshaw has once again given us his backing and hopes to publicise the event on air.
But just so the winter weather doesn’t beat us, for those members of the public who wish to donate before the game we are asking them to deliver their donations to Big Coat Day c/o Mustard Tree, 110 Oldham Road Manchester M4 6AG at any time from January 11th to January 15th between 9am and 5pm.
FC United fans can also bring their contributions to the club offices at any time between 9.30am and 4.30pm during weekdays up to 15th January.
