York City supporters will be rattling their buckets again in memory of York City legend Keith Walwyn, who died last week.
Fans pressure group the Friends of Bootham Crescent and the Harrogate Minstermen, a branch of the City Supporters' Club, will be organising bucket collections ahead of tomorrow's visit of Exeter.
All the money collected will be passed on to Walwyn's family to use as a tribute to the popular ex-City striker, whose funeral was taking place today at Kirkham, near Preston.
FoBC spokesman David Potter said: "York City Supporters' Trust has asked us to make this collection.
"Keith was to many of us the real Millennium Hero. It is hoped that the money raised can be used to aid others. Keith always gave 100 per cent to York, now we are asking York to give something back in his name.
"We are delighted to help raise money for Keith's family. The Trust is contacting Keith's widow, Liz, to see how she would like the money to be used".
Junior Reds and families are reminded the Family Room at will be closed prior to kick-off tomorrow for a function, but will re-open during half-time.
