I think probably down to a lot of players going away to play world cup qualifiers etc.

9. Shearer

He should be there as posted back in December and February

[StroppyMoppy]

Whoever plays I'll be there even if it just 2 monkeys and a fish.

[mrsjansen]

Flowers has confirmed he will be there and said that a few more big names are expected as "we all know who I speak to". A shearer return me thinks..

[Jan]

I have to suspect that Sutty won't be there as there's the little matter of an SPL title and a Scottish cup still going on then!

[Eddie]

I don't know...the quality will be higher in this match so who knows which one he'll pick...*prepares himself for insults*

[Jan]

Lets see- plays in games where he will get into Europe (twice over- actually- Champions League) or plays where the person he hates most in the footballing world will be??? Let me see- BIG choice.

Would be funny if he did come and brought Mr Bellamy with him. I'm sure that would be a confrontation to behold!!!

[greggyk]

-about Sutton and Shearer, its more the other way round Jan. Sutton was the guy who took Shearers best mate away from him

[Jan]

Shearers best mate away from him

Is that accurate- or should we include the word wife somewhere?

Anyway- it's totally mutual. Sutty isn't even polite about Shearer if you speak to him.

[laughatthedingles]

Would be surprised if Hendry didn't play, also Wilcox is probably quite likely as is Atkins.

[Modi]

If Tony's team is a Rovers Past, will Revidge be sat with fingers crossed from now until kick-off that Flitty is in that team?

[Blueboy Downunder]

as soon as you folks know who is confirmed as playing in the parkes 11, please post on here....so that us down here can look.

FLOWERS BACK AT EWOOD

Tim Flowers will be playing in the testimonial and was quoted in that article linked above as saying ""I'm on the phone regularly to a certain member of the championship winning side, and they are coming too, but I won't say who!".

Hmmm... You big tease Timothy...

Back of the LET should make you happy.

Shearer confirms he will play.

In fact he is delaying a trip to Portugal in order to turn up.

Good man!

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Fantastic news!!.....should guarantee a VERY healthy crowd and finally we get the chance to say thanks.

[Hannah]

Would be surprised if Hendry didn't play, also Wilcox is probably quite likely as is Atkins.

I thought Wilcox was out with a cruciate knee ligament injury at the moment.

[Claytons Left Boot]

Welcolme back Al.

[roverthemoon]

I was not going but I am now.

There`s only one Alan Shearer

Excellent news! ... means I won't have to wait till we play the Geordie surrender monkeys to hurl some abuse at him

[92er]

I seem to remember that in one testimonial-Noel Brotherston's?-some of the stupid fans in the Blackburn end booed Jimmy Quinn. I hope Alan Shearer gets a huge welcome back.
