.. City fans lift cup over Brighton fans (06/08/03)


The first team may have come away losers on Monday in Brighton, but City fans showed how it's done by lifting the first ever Courage Charity Cup at Burgess Hill on Sunday.

The game, organised by City fans down on the South Coast, and the Foxes Trust, raised money for the Rockinghorse Appeal at the Royal Alexandra Childrens Hospital and money for Keith Weller.

The game went to extra time but it was too hot to do that nonsense, so the lads went straight onto penalties, with City fans coming out the eventual winners after great work by Foxes keeper Bobby Moore.

All the fans from Foxes Trust FC and NSC Albion went on for a night out together at the Cobblers Thumb, where landlord Geoff forced them all to have one hell of a night. A late bar (very late from what we hear! Certain people were still up at 3.30am...), and a raffle (with the Brighton fans of course winning the signed City shirt) saw many new friends made.

Keith Weller's cousin had to be helped home in the wee small hours but seemed to have a good time! Early figures indicate over £1000 raised for Keith. If you want to donate anything for Keith's treatment, do so here

The event looks set to become an annual event with Brighton already wanting a chance at getting their hands on the cup next season.
