BAFTA-winning comedian Ricky Gervais has added his support to Airdrieonians' Supporters Trust's fundraising campaign - by donating a signed Airdrie shirt for auction.

​

The English funnyman - the brains behind hit shows The Office, Extras and Derek - learned the story of the Trust's shirt sponsorship through friend Ross Owen, an Airdrie supporter who hosts an online radio show.

​

On hearing of Mark Allison's astounding fundraising efforts, and the Trust's decision to honour Mark through the unique kit sponsorship deal, A-list celebrity Ricky was only too happy to sign one of the limited edition strips for auction.
