ALBION fans have just a few days to get their bids in for a special Seagulls' shirt.

Brighton and Hove Mayor Lynda Hyde is auctioning off this signed shirt as the city continues to back Albion as they go in search of the Premier League.

Promotion and the riches of the Premier League beckon if the club win their remaining matches against rivals Derby County and Middlesbrough on May 2 and May 7.

As part of that end-of-season drive, the county is being encouraged to turn blue and white.

Brighton and Hove City Council have taken up the challenge and will be flying the club's flag from it's main offices at King's House on Hove seafront and at Brighton and Portslade town halls until the promotion race is decided.

The city's mayor Lynda Hyde donned the Seagulls scarf in the mayor's parlour ahead of Saturday's win at Charlton Athletic as she joined the county-wide campaign to back the Albion.

The Conservative councillor was recently a guest of the Milton Keynes mayor to see the club's dramatic 2-1 win over the Dons.

She said: "I have been following Albion's success with great excitement.

"I give my full backing to campaign for everybody to get behind Albion for the rest of the season."

A signed shirt donated by the Albion is now being auctioned off for the benefit of the Mayor's three charities.

To bid email mayorsoffice@brighton-hove.gov.uk before Friday.
