Thank to the wonders of thirst, Jason Lee's swig of a fans pint has managed to give the steelmen 90 minutes of fame. And these 90 minutes will be played out on Sunday at Steel Park against a team made up by MarathonBets Non League Challenge team.
The team will be made up of some premier league legends from yesteryear, and will be a fantastic occasion for fans of all ages.
Whether your an 80's person who remembers Chris Waddle tearing up and down the wing for Newcastle or Tottenham, or a 90s fan who can remember Nigel Winterburn as part of one of the most famous and feared defensive units in football history, or maybe you are a 00's person, who remembers seeing the effect of Romans Rubles in June 2003, with players such as Eidur Gudjohnsen and William Gallas guiding the blues to 2 premier league titles in successive seasons, there is somebody here for you all!

Danny Mills
Nigel Winterburn
Ian Harte
