The Baggies were the jerseys with the Regis motif on the front for their 3-2 defeat to Southampton in the Premier League earlier this month.

They then auctioned off the shirts to raise cash for a charity chosen by the Regis family.

Daniel Sturridge’s shirt fetched the most cash, and sold for £1,705, while Ben Foster’s, Chris Brunt’s and Salomon Rondon’s all went for more than £1,000.

The total amount raised was £11,746.

Coventry City are holding a service to remember Regis at Coventry Cathedral at 4pm on Sunday, March 4.

Regis won the FA Cup with Coventry in 1987.
