Ready for kick-off

Last updated: 18th April 2008

The Soccer AM crew - and a few famous friends - are set to take on a team of Bury FC all-stars next weekend.

Andy, Tubes, Rocket and the rest of the gang will be strapping their boots on and showing off their skills in a match against Forever Bury FC at Gigg Lane on Sunday afternoon.

Gaffer Trev has called in a few favours from friends of the show such as former Manchester United winger Lee Sharpe, former Liverpool ace David Thompson and ex Everton striker Peter Beagrie. They will be turning out along with former Olympic sprinter Darren Campbell.

Former Shakers Legends Craig Madden and Jimmy McIlwraith will be dusting off their boots to play for Forever Bury FC in the game, which is raising money for charity.

The match takes place at Gigg Lane on Sunday April 20, kick off at 2:30pm. Tickets cost just £5 for adults and £2 for children under the age of 16. Family tickets (2 adults & 2 Children) are £12.

Tickets are available from the Bury FC ticket office in advance or on the day. You can get them by calling 0161 705 2144.
