BLACKBURN Rovers' star striker Alan Shearer forms part of the line-up on a new set of England football British Telecom Phonecards.

The cards coincide with England's forthcoming pre-Euro '96 friendly internationals.

Other featured national squad members are David Platt, Tony Adams, Teddy Sheringham, Jamie Redknapp, Gary Pallister and Paul Gascoine. There is also one featuring the whole squad.

Steve Davis, BT Phonecard marketing manager, said: "The England '96 phonecards will be a winner with football fans looking for a souvenir of the England squad. Commemorative phonecards have always been popular with sport fans and collectors alike. A £10 BT Phonecard celebrating the 1987 Muirfield Open Gold Tournament recently sold for £3,000."

The limited edition £2 England '96 phonecards are on sale from BT Phonecard agents and other outlets.
