Plans were announced last month to build a statue to the Posh legend, who died on October 8 after a battle with motor neurone disease.

It will be erected outside of the club’s Weston Homes Stadium, where so many gathered to pay their last respects to Tommy on Friday (October 30).

Those who join will be eligible to attend the statue unveiling as a guest of the statue appeal, once 24 payments have been received.

There will also be competitions during the fundraising process which will only be open to TR 11 members and each member will get an exclusive enamel badge.

In a statement, the Tommy Robson Statue Committee said: “The Tommy Robson Statue Fund Committee is pleased to announce the formation of the TR11 club, with the aim of gathering those fans who would like to make a regular contribution towards the statue fund.

“The statue will become a lasting recognition of a club legend and a continual reminder of the impact that Tommy had on the local community.

“Once erected, the statue will become a major monument and attraction, not only to Peterborough United but to the city. If, like many Posh fans, you share this vision then you are invited to become a member of the TR11 club,

“As a TR11 member it will give you and your family a real sense of pride every time you go past the statue knowing that you have played a major part in its construction.”

A new website has also been launched for the appeal and for all of the information on the progress and to find out more about the TR11 club, visit https://thetommyrobsonstatue.co.uk/tr11/.
