Yorkshire club to don hot dog-style kits

No, we’re not telling porkies with the headline. AFC Bedale have revealed their new strip for the coming season and it’s dedicated to one of the nation’s favourite treats to consume at half-time – the hot dog.

It has been part of the club’s tradition in recent seasons to included bangers on their jerseys ever since they agreed a sponsorship deal with a local sausage company in 2016.

There are two notable differences from this year’s version of the shirt, with mustard and ketchup making an appearance down the centre of the strip and the back of the shirt sporting the motto ‘You’ll Never Pork Alone’.

Named ‘the wurst’ kit in football, the feature isn’t without good cause as the club have raised £140,000 for Prostate Cancer UK so far.

Fresh from winning the North Riding Division One title last year, AFC Bedale are looking to cook up a storm this season.

Stroke of genius from @HeckSausages and @AfcBedale for the new numbers and the slogan on the back of the shirts this season. Front of the shirts is just as eye-catching – see them in this week's Yorks edition pic.twitter.com/Cobj7wXX08
