Ian Wright and Attilio Lombardo will grace the turf at Selhurst Park once more, after Palace officially confirmed Steve Kember’s testimonial.
The benefit match for former manager Kember will take place on Tuesday May 11th, and will include a veritable Who’s Who of Palace legends.
The main match will see a Palace All Stars XI - made up of the greatest players from the club’s recent history - taking on the current first team. As well as Wright and Lombardo, the All Stars team will also include the likes of Gareth Southgate, Mark Bright and Alan Pardew. Players such as Nigel Martyn, Matt Jansen, Ashley Cole and Clinton Morrison are likely to be involved too.
But that’s not all – the All Stars XI are also going to be coached on the night by a management team of Steve Coppell and Ray Lewington. And the evening will be kicked off with a match between teams of Palace and Chelsea veterans.
Tickets for the night are already on sale from the box office, priced at a very reasonable £13 and just £5 for kids.
