Football team to sport toad-in-the-hole themed kits for new season... - The US Sun
A FOOTIE team has taken a battering before the season even starts with the delivery of toad-in-the-hole themed kit.
Non-league Bedale AFC will rise to the occasion in shirts and shorts displaying the classic British dish.
The sausage-and-batter-print outfits are complemented with green socks.
To make matters worse, the goalkeeper's strip is modelled on a side order of mixed veg.
Bedale, in the North Riding League, are notorious for having the worst kits in football — dreamed up by the club's sponsor, North Yorkshire-based sausage maker Heck.
Strips included a hot dog shirt, a cheese grater kit and even see-through gear to remind men to get checked for the disease.
But sales to fans have raised thousands of pounds for Prostate Cancer UK.
Bedale chairman Martyn Coombes said: "We've been inundated with requests to buy them."
They plan to donate £5 from every shirt sale.
Heck co-founder Andrew Keeble said: "What started as an innocuous sausage kit has snowballed into this massive, almost unstoppable force."
