1,000 pink Everton shirts help battle against breast cancer

EVERTON fans can be tickled pink from today as the club does its bit to help battle breast cancer.

A limited edition run of 1,000 pink replica shirts went on sale to raise money for the fight against the disease.

Available from the megastore at Goodison Park, the Pyramid Centre in Birkenhead and the club website, the shirts were the brainchild of Everton’s head of public relations, Ian Ross.

He said: “We have had three or four women here hit by breast cancer, so it is something very close to our hearts.

“We hope every other Premier League club will follow suit and help us raise a massive amount for this very worthy cause.

“I’m sure these shirts will fly off the shelves because they will be a collector’s item and help save lives.”

The Everton first team squad posed in the pink shirts last year and raised more than £10,000.
