Astute business by England getting Dave Seaman in as GK coach, will be interesting to see who manages the side. Good to see all time top score Jonathan Wilkes in the squad and Ben Shepard back after his cruel injury blow last season.

Come on England!!

 

[Is it PotG?]

No mention of Rustie Lee, for that reason I'm OUT.

I'll not be going to it this year due to Covid.

Usually I don't go because it's awful.

 

[essbee1]

I know good cause and all that, but so utterly crass it makes me cringe.

Will be washing my hair that day

Whenever it is!!

It's just very dull. They all take it far too seriously and there's not enough sh*thousery.

Mention of Olly Murs AND James Arthur. That'll be TWO J Arthurs then. For that reason I'm OUT

I'd actually be interested in watching if they took out the C list celebs and just made it a kind of veterans/masters style match

 

[Oscar]

It's for a good cause but I can't help resenting how these Z-list celebs get to play footy star for the day in a way all footy fans can only dream of.

I would love to see a pub team or squad of footy fans who have achieved something for their community take on the a team of former players and a mix of celebs.

So essentially Palace vs. Arsenal then?
