FOOTBALL supporters will soon be given the chance to admire the creative flair of one North-East student.

Amanda Livingstone, from MacMillan College in Middlesbrough, took part in a project organised by the Middlehaven Partnership to submit designs for fencing at Middlesbrough FC's Riverside Stadium.

Organisers were so impressed with Amanda's concept that they have decided to use it in the fencing, which will be ready for the start of the season in August.

David Carr, English Partnership's Project Director for the North-East, said: "Amanda's strikingly original design incorporates famous Middlesbrough landmarks like the Transporter Bridge and the Dock Clock Tower alongside the Middlesbrough FC logo.
