Published 16:05 29/08/08 By By Dan Silver, Mirror.co.uk
Mirror.co.uk has teamed up with John Barnes' new football charity Score Ethiopia to off you the chance to bid for signed football shirts from every Premier League football club in the country.
Next Monday, the former England legend will be embarking on a Van Dash around all 20 top flight clubs to collect the shirts, starting at Newcastle's St James' Park, and ending in Portsmouth on Friday. And you'll be able to follow John's exploits each day via his exclusive blog and video diary.
Then you can take part in Mirror.co.uk's special eBay auction to bid for the shirts that John collects, with the proceeds going to the Score Ethiopia charity to raise funds for water amenities, schools and football facilities in the Gondar region of Ethiopia.
It will be a lot of fun, will benefit a great cause, and you might even end up with a unique collectors' item at the end of it.
So keep checking back on Mirror.co.uk all next week to see how John gets on. And perhaps buy yourself a piece of history.
About Score Ethiopia
Score Ethiopia is a partnership between Wash & Go shampoo and educational charity Link Ethiopia launched by John Barnes in 2007, after he visited the town of Lalibela and experienced Ethiopia's critical needs as well as the people's passion to play football even in the face of adversity.
He said: "All over the world people play football with whatever they can get their hands on. A can, rolled up clothes or a milk carton full of stones make a ball.
"But rarely have I witnessed such passion for the 'beautiful game' as I did in Ethiopia. The sport brings communities together, promotes health and well being.
"However, Ethiopia is a beautiful yet very poor country. Wash & Go's Score Ethiopia is looking to raise as much money as possible to deliver vital amenities and football facilities.
"A little money can make a lot of Ethiopian's happy!"
