Sausage maker dress goalkeeper as giant cheese grater to fight prostate cancer
GOALIE Johnny Coombs is shredding this season — but it’s all for the grater good.
His non-league side Bedale AFC are wearing kit sponsored by sausage maker Heck Food, which is raising cash to fight prostate cancer.
The firm will be dressing Johnny, 39, as a giant cheese grater to promote its new range of “Veg with Edge” bangers.
His team-mates will wear a carrot-print kit.
The North Yorks team wore a sausage kit in 2017 voted worst ever by fans.
In 2018 it was hot dogs and 2019 it was bangers and mash.
Heck’s co-founder Andrew Keeble said: “We’ve had some fun along the way.
“What started as an innocuous sausage kit a few years ago has snowballed into this massive, almost unstoppable force that shows no sign of letting up.

“Every time we think that’s it, we get another idea for a new kit and away we go again.
“However, there is a very serious side to all of this because Heck and Bedale AFC continue to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer.”
The disease kills 11,000 men a year, one every 45 minutes.
