Crewe Alex raises money for charity

Crewe Alexandra FC has raised over £2,300 for St Luke's Cheshire Hospice, after auctioning a limited run of 'Crewe Aleksandr' training gear.

The training gear was created as part of Compare the Market's takeover of League Two club, Crewe Alexandra F.C., for the opening weekend of the season, in celebration of its new landmark EFL (English Football League) partnership.

The players wore the training tops and jackets as part of the warmup ahead of the club's away fixture at Crawley Town, with the Crewe Aleksandr logo in pride of place.
