Millers fans turn players for Bramley charity match

A GROUP of Millers fans used to watching their heroes from the sidelines laced up their own boots for a chairity kickabout.

Organiser Reece Kellock and his fellow Kimmy Park Away Days members, who travel around the country watching Rotherham United, put together the match in aid of Rotherham Hospice “as its close to many hearts”.

The game at Flash Lane in Bramley was two months in the planning and all the players had personalised shirts.
