STAVELEY MW FORMER PLAYERS v MEL STERLAND'S ALL STARS
(Jaime Naylor Memorial Match - Sunday 19th November 3pm)
A number of former football league professionals are set to grace the Inkersall Road turf in a memorial match for young Staveley MW striker Jaime Naylor who died tragically during the Summer. A Staveley MW Former Players side take on the Mel Sterland All-Stars on Sunday 19th November (3pm). The Welfare side, selected by former manager Dave Tromans, is set to include Chris Waddle, Mick Godber, ex-Chesterfield FC goalkeeper Phil Tingay and a number of players who steered Staveley to two Sheffield County Senior League titles in the 1990s.
The All-Star team will be made up of a number of big names and is likely to include John Sheridan, Chris Woods, Lawrie Madden, John Newsome, Ernie Moss, Andy Kowalski and a guest appearance by referee Uriah Rennie.
23-year-old Jaime was an instant hit at Inkersall Road following his arrival from Handsworth in January 2006. His seven goals in six games helped bring about an upturn in form as Staveley finished the season in a respectable mid-table position.
The entrance fee is £3 adults, £1.50 concessions and a matchday programme and refreshments will be available.
A post on their guestbook suggests the teams will be:
Mel Sterlands Allstars: Kevin Pressman, Charlie Williamson, Lawrie Madden, Gregg Fee, John Newsome, John Pearson, Chris Waddle, David Hurst, Gordon Simmonite, Mick Henderson, John Dungworth, Ernie Moss, David Pugh, Bob Newton. Guest Appearance from Herol Bomber Graham.
Staveley MW: Phil Tingay, Paul Brodie, Nigel Bailey, Rob Gent, Andy Knowles, Rob Atkin, Neil Cluxton, Lee Vernon, Paul Nicholls, Mick Godber, Phil Greaves, Daz Evans, Shane Turner, Dave Thompson, Mick Collins, Kevin Wragg. Manager Dave Tromans.
Referee Nigel Smith, Linesmen Mark Burnand & Andrew Gascoigne.
Stuff the All Stars - i'm looking forward to seeing some of the Welfare legends!
