    Anyone put that pikey from One Erection over the top of the stand yet?

    If it happened I'd probably turn over

    Soccer aid is the most self indulgent, charity event ever. If your a mate of Robbies you get a game.

    Bessi Mates. Still waxes lyrical about Robbie's help and support and how he is a nice guy.

    This. Jonathan Wilkes was captain of England, and apparently a celebrity. His Wikipedia page is as follows:

    I'm not saying it doesn't do a good thing in raising money for charity, but it is a bit of a smug celebrity love in, perhaps to the point of even limiting the cash they raise. For example, I don't understand why they don't have a raffle where everyone who donates a set amount (say a fiver or a tenner) gets put into a draw and the winner gets to play in the match. That would easily add a seven figure sum onto the takings.

    I agree, the Charitable cause is without question. The Invite list is like kids football when Robbie is the captain kids dad. Some interesting celebs but the vast majority are just Robbie's mates. No way would I pick Whitey, Bossman, Tyke_80, Dr Zazlos, Matt1575, TingleyTyke, even though they aren't all celebs (well not all) as they can pay on the door. I do have other mates too btw :rolleyes:

    I think Wilkes is in there because a very good footballer. They choose celebrities who are good enough to put up a proper game against the pros and that's why it's the same faces all the time.

    Yeah but to be fair, he wasn't that great yesterday. He had much longer on the pitch than he should have. The guy who came on in the second half was miles better. (Ginger actor fella whose name escapes me). Even Jack Whitehall was better.

    Also, I think that game illustrates how far off these "celebrities" and former pros are compared to the pros.
    Slower, so many mistakes, bad passes etc. In a similar way to Women's Football being miles off the pace. I'd say some of those celebs could possibly cut it as footballers, but the sharpness and fitness is where they are miles behind.

    You obviously didn't see Woody Harrleson and Edward Norton play a few years ago? Ain't much cop but to be fair don't know how much of a mate he was with RW either.

    Can't believe how cynical some people are.

    Wilkes came up with the idea of soccer aid so that's why he's there, him & Robbie Williams have raised millions for charity through it.

    It's not like there's a loads of z listers playing, most of them are big names.

    And the idea of fans playing wouldn't work as they need as many famous people playing as possible so that more people buy tickets & that more people are watching & will hopefully donate.

    No one's going to tune in to watch Steve from Athersley play are they?

    I'm sure having 1 normal bloke out of the 30 or so "celebs" and legends playing wouldn't have a negative effect on viewing figures/attendance. I'd actually be more interested in watching it if there was a chance of Steve from Athersley clattering Robbie Williams or nutmegging Ronaldinho.
