Saw this on twitter, thought it might be someone on here, but can't see a related thread. Anyone have any idea of how to help out? Even just retweeting/ liking might help out in terms of exposure

Found the original auction page for 4 of his medals from back in 2001

Christie’s must know who bought them

Yeah could see this story being picked up by wider press. Could be a good bit of PR for us as a club / community
Although, have we totally ruled out that the person that started this campaign isn’t the current owner of the medal lol I imagine we’d raise quite a lot

Probably best option is to contact the auction house, explain what you doing and find out if they still have the buyers details. If they do have them, ask if they would be willing to pass a message to them regarding us seeking the medals and our willingness to compensate the current owner to be able to return them to their original owner. And if that person has sold them on, would they be willing to forward the message as well ?
I really don't know if Christies would want to be a third party messenger but unless we put a wanted advert in the media, it's the only start I can think of.

Try putting this on a couple of the UTD forums, chances are it was bought by a man u fan.
