ITV keep showing adverts on TV about the match with Gazza, Zola, Robbie, Gordon Ramsay etc. Anybody know when this match is and when its on TV?

Martynt74 · 10 May 2006 at 21:06

Tis at old Trafford on the 27th i think, was advertised in the programme last night.

How much mate?

Martynt74 · 10 May 2006 at 21:52

£15 a ticket in either the North or East Stand, think everywhere else is sold out

Will this be worth watching tonight? It seems to be a bit of rip-off from the series that was shown on Sky.

Looking at the sides, the rest of the world team would seem to have the better chance.

England:-

Manager - Terry Venables
Robbie Williams
Jonathan Wilkes
Ben Shephard
Jamie Theakston
Ronnie O’Sullivan
David Gray
Bradley Walsh
Damien Lewis :confused:

Angus Deayton
Dean Lennox Kelly :confused:

David Seaman
Tony Adams
Paul Gascoigne
Jamie Redknapp
Les Ferdinand
John Barnes

R.O.W:-

Manager - Ruud Gullit
Gordon Ramsey
Eddie Irvine
Patrick Kielty
Ben Johnson (wonder if there wil be drug-testing?)
David Campese
Sergi Fedorov
Alistar Campbell
Brian McFadden
Craig Doyle
Alessandro Nivola
Zola
Desailly
Ginola
Dunga
Mattheus
Schmeichel

The squads are in no particular order. I heard Ramsey picked up an injury after a tackle with Brian McFadden!

The other one i hadn't heard of was Alessandro Nivola (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005273/).

It wasn't the order, it was the fact in the Team photo he was wearing a normal top, not the keepers kit. could have been they just want one keeper in the team photo

Wasn't he a defender at Rangers?

Keeper I thought. I few sites suggest that too.

First day of training for the Soccer Aid starts tonight, should be interesting to see how they get on.

ITV 1 at 9pm and then ITV 2 at 10:30pm.

The match is on this Saturday

fozzybear · 23 May 2006 at 14:29

I watched it last night but didn't know it was presented by Ant and Dick. There was far too much 'settee chat' for my liking.

Hopefully there will be some actual football to watch on tonights show instead of the Geordie duo's inane drivel!

Didnt they say that the teams were having practice matches against a bunch of 'legends'?

There's a practice at Fulham (i think) today against players like Hoddle and Beardsley. I'm guessing the highlights will be in the 11pm show rather than the 10pm one.

Maraddona is in the RoW squad. Hope he turns up.

Seen him play for Barca against Utd in the eighties at OT. Truly awesome
