Fans' Champion for Watford

Organ donation campaigner receives match ball honour

ALBION are delighted to welcome inspiring season-ticket holder Jim Lynskey as the Fans’ Champion for the Watford game (ko 3pm).

Jim, who works tirelessly to promote organ donation, will deliver the match ball to the Premier League plinth before kick-off.

The 21-year-old from Alvechurch lives with the aid of a LVAD (Left Ventricle Assisted device), which tackles a heart defect, while he awaits a transplant.

Jim has established the ‘Save9lives’ campaign which aims to raise awareness and funds for LVAD.

Head coach Tony Pulis invited Jim to the training ground last season where he donned one of Jim’s ‘Save9Lives’ T-shirts during a press conference.
