The
City ‘Legends Night’, organised by Alan Birchenall MBE in
aid of Foxes
Trust, has sold out of tickets in less than 2 hours!
The
event will take place on Tuesday 18th Feb at the Great Hall
at the Walkers Stadium. Ex City players Gary Lineker, Gordon
Banks, Emile Heskey, Neil Lennon, Frank Worthington, Steve
Walsh, Graham Cross, Frank Mclintock & Gary McAllister will
take part in Q&A Night with all donating their time for free.
All of the guests will bring along an item of memorabilia
for a raffle on the night.
Birch
said it demonstrated how much they wanted to help
‘It
shows the depth of feeling they have for the club. They love
Leicester City as much as I do’ he said.
Steve
Smith who is coordinating the Trusts’ fund raising activities
said, “It should be a fantastic night – one that everyone
will remember. If these guy’s were playing today they would
be worth a fortune.”
“How
much would they cost at current transfer values – £150million?
said Birch. “Plus £35 for me!"
Birch
hopes to raise about £10,000 from the evening “I hate setting
targets, but I hope we can raise £10,000 for the Trust on
the night.”
Trust
Chairperson Wendy Bennett said the Trust was grateful to Birch
for organising the evening “Birch has given Foxes Trust his
full support from day one, & his enthusiasm for organising
this event & in nominating Foxes Trust as his benefactor for
his fund raising activities this season shows his dedication
to Leicester City Football Club & it’s supporters.”
