There’s just one week left for you to secure a match-worn shirt from Saints’ Remembrance Day victory over Leicester City.
All 18 members of the matchday squad gave up their tops from the game to raise money for the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal.
The Saints Foundation have been auctioning the limited-edition shirts — which are emblazoned with a poppy motif — since the day of the 2-0 win over the Foxes, with bids already totalling well over £2,000.
Graziano Pellè currently leads the way, with his shirt currently going for £500, while matchwinner Shane Long’s jersey is set to fetch £375. Goalkeeper Fraser Forster, playmaker DuÅ¡an Tadić and skipper José Fonte are also proving popular.
To make a bid to get your hands on one of the shirts and raise money for the Poppy Appeal, simply visit the Saints Foundation’s auction site — but don’t leave it too late! The auctions close between 2pm and 4pm on Friday 28th November.

What to read next:
Swansea AwaydazeOur visit to Swansea City is on Sunday with a 3pm kick-off, and once again we’re being televised live on Sky Sports, which will be handy for those of us who can’t get to South Wales on a Sunday.
Farke complains bitterly about Firpo suspensionWe had a surprise yesterday morning, as we found out that that Junior Firpo had been given a three match suspension as a result of an incident in the match at Millwall. Our manager has complained about the short notice when he was preparing his team to face QPR, and about the FA’s process itself.
Leeds labour to victory over stubborn QPRWe made hard work of winning this game, but we finally put the match beyond Queens Park Rangers with a second goal deep into injury time, sending the visitors to the bottom of the table.
Farke happy with the performance despite defeatDaniel Farke has claimed that his team were excellent last night, but many others disagree, after we failed to get past an organised defence yet again, and Millwall were able to hang on to all three points.
Millwall AwaydazeOn Wednesday night we can once again look forward to another fun-packed visit to Millwall on Sunday with kick off at 7.45. You’ll find the New Den in a really pleasant part of South-East London, but if you’re not heading this way, there is always the option of watching the game live on Sky Sports plus.
Leeds coast to comprehensive win over PlymouthThe goalscoring was confined to an eight minute period towards the end of the first half, but Leeds were so dominant throughout the entire 90 minutes that Plymouth Argyle didn’t manage a single shot on goal.
Bristol City AwaydazeIt will be an early start if you’re making a day trip to Bristol City on Saturday, as kick-off is at 12.30pm, thanks to our very good friends at Sky Sports. You’ll find Ashton Gate about 2 miles to the south-west of the city centre.
Leeds bring in Guilavogui as experienced backupThe club have made a move to bolster the squad by signing 34-year-old Josuha Guilavogui, who can operate in a number of defensive positions. Subject to obtaining a work permit, he will now be with us until the end of the current season.
