Football Shirt Friday is back next week, and we want to see supporters wearing their favourite Albion strips from down the years!

Whether that's this season's popular collared shirt or a design from the 1980s, make sure you get involved and we'll share our favourites on social media on Friday 20th November for #FootballShirtFriday.

Both Albion's men's and women's teams have got involved and will be pictured wearing their national team shirts on the club's social media channels in the lead up to 20th November.

Campaign organisers Cancer Research UK want you to wear your favourite shirt, donate to the Bobby Moore Fund and share a selfie on social media. To donate to the fund, please click here.

Football Shirt Friday takes place on 20th November - Rianna Jarrett shows her support for the campaign.

The Bobby Moore Fund is a ringfenced fundraiser of Cancer Research UK with money raised going directly into pioneering bowel cancer research.

The Fund was set up by Bobby's wife Stephanie after the 1966 World Cup winner passed away in 1993.

Since then over £27 million has been raised, while mortality rates of the disease have fallen by over 30%.

But bowel cancer still claims the lives of over 16,000 people in the UK each year, which works out at 45 people every day.
