[Floval Flyer]

Just been reading on Twitter about a charity game coming up soon, to raise funds for Havens Hospices

The Sid Broomfield Trophy
which is being played on Monday May 20th at Roots Hall

So far confirmed;

Flahavan, Jupp, Hunt, Edwards, Barrett, Wilson, Bentley, Guttridge, Bradbury,Maher, Gower, Eastwood, Tilson and Brush. Plus possibly Shaun Goater

Tickets are apparently going on sale next week!! £5 adults, kids for a quid

According to Chris Phillips if you buy your tickets within the first two weeks of going on sale you’ll enter in a draw to meet Adam Barrett and win a signed picture of him.

Gotta be done!!!

I have the date in my diary as Monday 13th May. Have I missed something or did I get it wrong in the first place ?

Now that would be a great trip down memory lane, and for a very good cause ...

Are tickets available online do you know, or just head down to the ticket office?

Hopefully it is the 20th because I'm away the week before.

They will be available online, full details will be published for tickets next week as details are finalised. There will be online purchases, in person at the ticket office and at a friendly estate agent's two offices by all accounts

The Z list celebrity charity match at Roots Hall last month had an attendance of over 4,000. Then surely we can get more than that, for this match.

With that lineup I think they've sold themselves short on the ticket prices.

Totally agree there I would’ve paid double for that.

Anyone know if seats are allocated, i.e. can you buy your usual seat or just get a ticket and sit anywhere ?
