    Aged 40, scored the equalising 3rd goal with a great free- kick. Donny are wearing a changed kit today which Coppinger and his 2 sons have designed for Charity. Usually no time for Donny but that’s a great story

    Been reading up on that earlier. Great story and a fitting outcome.

    TBH I don't think he liked us but that's ok.

    We were strongly linked with him a few years after as well, 2014 ish. He turned us down then as well by all accounts.

    Proper legend at Donny. Can't knock a player who shows that much loyalty to his club.

    Great story indeed. Said on here for years we should do a charity kit like a pink strip for cancer for example.

    Well done Coppinger. Seems to be a model professional.

    He wanted to come to us when we were rumoured to be looking at him, he did an interview saying we were a massive club and putting himself in the shop window - we then confirmed it was just paper talk. :D

    Think his design would have looked better with black shorts but a good effort!
