Doncaster Rovers have signed the One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson. The 21-year-old, who was born in Doncaster but has never played higher than Sunday league football, has been được trao the No.28 squad number for the 2013-14 season and is likely to appear for the team's reserves after signing as a non-contract player in aid of Bluebell Wood Children's Hospice in Sheffield.
Tomlinson told the Championship club's website: "This has always been a childhood dream for me." Tomlinson previously appeared for the club in a charity game in aid of Bluebell Wood Hospice. He added: "I feel very honoured to have been asked to sign for Rovers and being able to help both the club and the amazing charity Bluebell Wood is what it's all about."
A club spokesman đã đưa ý kiến they hoped he would appear in Rovers colours and train with the Championship footballers "at some point this season" in aid of the charity.
Tomlinson is a season ticket holder and took part in a charity match at Doncaster's Keepmoat Stadium last October. The club's chairman, John Ryan, wore No28 when he became the oldest person to play for a professional football club in England, aged 52 years and 11 months.
He said: "I am honoured to let Louis play in my number to help raise money for the charity. I wore this in 2003 for my record beating appearance at Hereford and this is the first time I have allowed it to be used since but I felt this was a good cause."
Claire Rintoul, chief executive of the hospice, đã đưa ý kiến she was "thrilled and delighted" about the signing. "Being a local lad it's great to see him giving back to the community and supporting our children with a shortened life expectancy," she said. "He's visited us now on thêm than one occasion and met some of our children and their families who are all so excited that he is championing our cause.
"Louis was shocked when he learnt that we only receive a tiny amount of statutory funding and have to raise over £3m ourselves, but it means so much to us and our children and families that he's giving his time to help us raise money and awareness."

I was peacefully asleep and in a dream when my older brother, Louis started being loud and abnoxious. "Louis shutup!" I yelled. "You will never silence me!"Louis yelled back. As he stood in my doorway I threw a cái gối, gối at him but he just threw it right back and ran downstairs. I got up and closed my bedrrom door so I could get dressed. My blonde hair was curly, as always but I looked like crap with being sick and all.
I threw on some sweatpants and a black tank hàng đầu, đầu trang because I was just gonna have a lazy day. I walked to the bathroom and put on eyeliner but that was it. Afterwards I walked downstairs and Louis had his bandmates over already. I walked into the living room and everyone looked my way. "Hey Lottie." Niall said. "Hey Charlotte." Liam said, smiling which I thought was absoloutely adorable. "Hi." I đã đưa ý kiến quietly and blushing a little. I liked the fact that only Liam called me Charlotte.
