Tickets are now available for John Taylor’s very special Legends Charity match #United4Dobbo on Sunday 26th April (K.O 11:30am).
Last week “Shaggy”, in partnership with 100 Years of Coconuts, announced he was getting the band back together for a very special event in aid of supporter Simon Dobbin and his family.
The U’s leading goalscorer of the Football League era, has invited a whole host of former Cambridge United stars, who will be making their way back to the Abbey to Unite for Dobbo in a one-off charity fixture.
Already confirmed for #United4Dobbo via social media:
John Taylor
Liam Hughes
Max Rushden
Lionel Perez
Josh Coulson
Ian Miller
Two more legends will be revealed before the end of today too, so keep your eyes peeled to see who is confirming their attendance next.
Taylor, is working alongside 100 Years of Coconuts and CFU to deliver the event, which will not only provide Cambridge United fans with a chance to catch a glimpse of their former favourites back on the hallowed turf of the Abbey, but also another fundraising opportunity to support the ongoing care needs of U’s supporter Simon Dobbin and his family.
Simon’s tragic story is one that is well-known among Cambridge United supporters, with the Mildenhall-based fan left brain damaged after a brutal attack in Southend five years ago, having spent the afternoon supporting the U's in a fixture at Roots Hall in March 2015.
The #United4Dobbo Legends Match is a chance for supporters, former players and the wider football family to once again come together in support of Simon, his wife Nicole and his family.
Tickets for the event will be priced at £10 for all ages, with proceeds being donated to the Dobbin family. Tickets are available at cufcdirect.com now!
