MILLWALL are cycling from London to Brighton in the name of SunSport legend Paul Jiggins.
Lifelong Lions fan ‘Jiggo’ sadly passed away in March aged 50 from a heart attack.
And in his honour club CEO Steve Kavanagh, staff and a few of Paul’s friends will become Lions in lycra as they cycle 53 miles from Tower Bridge to Brighton’s seafront for the British Heart Foundation on June 11.
The club wrote: “Paul always managed to see the bright side of any tough situation and we will be adopting that very attitude as we take on this challenging bike ride.”
You can donate to their cause on the club’s website.
Jiggins first joined The Sun in 1990 as a messenger before rising through the ranks to become a staff writer.
He quickly became one of the sharpest writers in the business, keeping readers entertained with his Week at the Knees column and witty intros.
As well as covering Tottenham, Jiggo shined a light on the work of his beloved Millwall and had recently become a host on the club’s official podcast WallTalk.
Since his passing, former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino, England manager Gareth Southgate, Three Lions’ skipper Harry Kane and the FA all paid tribute.
Millwall renamed their media suite after Jiggo and held a minute’s applause in his memory against Swansea on April 5.
