Jimmy’s gonna get ya….

Jimmy Case has now confirmed that he will attend the Ex-Saints evening on Friday. Case, who represented the Saints over 200 times is keen to play his part in what will be a terrific occasion. The news follows on from the weekend’s news that Lawrie McMenemy will also be in attendance. The ’76 FA Cup winning manager heads a fantastic list of players that covers the past 60 years.
Other stars of the 70s include legendary full-back Denis Hollywood and midfielder Brian O’Neil, while earlier Saints stars Tommy Hare, ace keeper Tony Godfrey and Wes Maughan will be there.

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.

"Maybe Dennis and Brian can show us how a tackle should be done!" – LSSC chairman Mick Strickland

Following on from LSSC’s fantastic day at Lords in June when we raised around £2,500 for these causes, the Ex-Saints night promises to be a memorable occasion which will be split into two parts-

Forum – A question and answer session where members will get the opportunity to test the player’s memories!
Informal ‘session’ – Meet the players in a more relaxed mood!

There will be a sumptuous buffet on offer and a well stocked bar (now there’s a surprise).

Oh, and why not make a day of it as earlier in the day, the London Saints Open takes place at Trent Park Golf Club in North London – full details on previous article.
