Iron Bru is fundraising for Scunthorpe United player, Jonathan Gjoshe, after he was injured in the appalling Huntingdon train stabbing on Saturday evening.

Monies raised will go towards any adjustments that need to be made in the form of care, transport costs and loss of earnings while Jonathan recovers from his injuries.

Gjoshe signed for Scunthorpe in September after spending the majority of pre-season with the Iron. From the club's website:

"Scunthorpe United can announce the signing of defender Jonathan Gjoshe on non-contract terms.

The 22-year-old has been with the club throughout pre-season and the opening month of the campaign, and did feature in some of United’s warm-up matches.

Most recently at Corinthian Casuals, Gjoshe has also had spells with Spelthorne Sports, Colliers Wood, Walton and Hersham, Chipstead, Kingstonian and Hanworth Villa, with the non-contract nature of the agreement seeing the full-back provide cover following the injuries and suspensions of Jean Belehouan, Oli Rose and Joe Starbuck, respectively.

Last season, Gjoshe won young player of the year at Corinthian Casuals."

I'm sure all Iron fans and football fans around the country will join us in wishing Jonathan a speedy recovery and the best for the future, along with all the people affected by this horrific attack.
