Last Friday (November 19), football fans around the world took part in Football Shirt Friday, an annual event that sees supporters of the sport don their favorite shirts.
The purpose of the day is to raise money for the Bobby Moore Fund, to help those battling bowel cancer in memory of England’s World Cup-winning captain.

One of the images is of Stephen Burnett and his fiancée, Chris Driver.
The engaged couple, who have supported the Chairboys for several years, regularly visit Adams Park, with Stephen also having links with one of the county’s non-league clubs, Risborough Rangers.
Their photo is from September this year, when Wycombe lost 6-1 to Manchester City in the League Cup third round.
