Partick Thistle’s new partnership with the innovative digital platform MatchWornShirt brings an amazing opportunity to supporters of the club and fans of the iconic red and yellow jersey worldwide. From now until 2025, there will be three opportunities in every football season for fans of the club to win the worn & signed shirts of their favourite players, starting with Saturday’s match against Airdrieonians.
These shirts will be made available in auctions on the MatchWornShirt website, which are set to go live the instant that the games begin, allowing fans to place bids while the action is still raging. In the journey that takes these worn & signed shirts from the pitch of the game to the home of the winning bidder, they will remain absolutely unaltered. MatchWornShirt is passionate about providing sports fans throughout the world with unrivalled access to unique moments of sporting history, which means making sure that the shirts are perfectly preserved in their match condition, down to each individual patch of mud and droplet of sweat.
Co-founder of MatchWornShirt, Tijmen Zonderwijk, said: “There are two things that our customers prize above everything else in a football club – a proud history and extraordinary shirts. Partick Thistle has both.”
Partick Thistle Commercial Director, Beth Adamson commented: “This partnership with MatchWornShirt provides Jags fans worldwide with another opportunity to get a piece of Thistle history by bidding on shirts worn on the pitch throughout the season. Our first auction gets underway in just a matter of days, with a whole range of first team strips available to bid on.”
