A GROUP of soccer fans are looking to a football club to help them score in the world of fashion.

Sixteen wannabies have applied to model Middlesbrough Football Club's new-look away strip.

They will model different strips which will be put to a supporters' vote later this month.

Eleven girls and five boys took part in a photographic session in the players' dressing rooms at the Riverside Stadium last night in a bid to become the club's Boro Babes and Boro Boys.

It is the fourth successive year the club has held the competition and Boro's commercial manager Graham Fordy said: "The standard of entries was the best ever, so we thank all those fans who have sent in their photographs. Unfortunately, there can be only six winners.''

The winners will be featured on Boro TV, in Boro's matchday programme, in the club's official retail catalogue and on the official website.
