Anyone in London on Friday (29th)?

[for_heaven's_Saint]

If so, we (The London Saints) still have a handful of tickets left for our ex-saints evening, being held at the Counting House pub in Bank at 7.30pm.

 

Ex-Saints are a charitable organisation who regularly play matches and attend functions in order to support their favoured good causes. This year they are raising money and awareness for the following-

 

Peter Osgood Trust - helping disabled and under-privileged children enjoy football

Kevin Moore – Saints stalwart who suffers from fronotemporal dementia (an early form of dementia).

The Cedar School - local school helping physically disabled children.

 

Basically the night is a chance to meet and chat to numerous ex-saints players, have a drink with other Saints fans in London and raise money for charity at the same time. The night will consist of an informal 'forum' in which you will have the chance to take to the mic to ask a question to one of the players, followed by general 'mingling', where you can chat to them, have your photo with them etc. There will also be a buffet, a raffle and a silent auction.

 

The following players have been confirmed and we are hoping to get a couple more on the day:

 

Jimmy Case (midfileder, 1981-1991)

Ruben Agboola (defender, 1980-85)

Mel Blyth (defender 1974-77)

Jimmy Case (midfielder 1985-91)

John Christie (goalkeeper 1950-59)

Glenn ****erill (midfielder 1985-93)

Norman Dean (forward 1965-66)

Mick Earles (defender 1973-75)

Hughie Fisher (midfielder 1966-77)

Tony Godfrey (goalkeeper 1958-66)

Tommy Hare (defender 1965-66)

Denis Hollywood (defender 1962-72)

David Hughes (midfielder 1991-2000)

Wes Maughan (forward, 1958-62)

Brian O'Neil (midfielder, 1970-74)

 

And Lawrie McMenemy.

 

Tickets cost £15, with all the proceeds from the night going to the aforementioned charities. We have already raised nearly £3000 and are hoping to get it up to at least the £4000 mark.

 

Please let me know if it is something you may be interested in.
