MORE STARS ANNOUNCED FOR SOCCER AID 2012

 

1 Apr 2012

 

As Soccer Aid 2012 draws nearer and football fever escalates, we're excited to announce that the England team have signed up three new recruits; award-winning actor Jason Isaacs, comedian John Bishop and, returning to the pitch after 2010's game, presenter Paddy McGuinness.

 

“Having spent most of my youth watching games from the substitute's bench," said Jason Isaacs, "it's a surreal nightmare to imagine playing alongside some of the world's greatest footballers. However it's such a privilege to be asked to help UNICEF in any way, that my best hope is to take a couple of them out of the game before I'm stretchered off myself. It's for a great cause so how wrong can that be?!"

 

These new signings will join England’s captain Robbie Williams and team mates Marvin Humes and Aston Merrygold from Britain’s biggest boy band JLS, pop star Olly Murs, actor Jonathan Wilkes, presenter Ben Shephard, comedian Patrick Kielty, DJ Jamie Theakston and football legends Teddy Sheringham, David Seaman and Jamie Redknapp with more names to be announced soon.

 

They will be taking on The Rest of the World who’s team sheet currently includes captain Michael Sheen, US comic actor/ producer Will Ferrell, Scottish actor Gerard Butler, comic genius Mike Myers, world class chef Gordon Ramsay and ex-Manchester United players Edwin van der Sar, Ruud Van Nistelrooy and Jaap Stam… with more high-profile names to be announced soon!

 

Aston Merrygold. What a fantastic name. :lol:

I like John Bishop, he's really funny ^_^

Is he the Scouse comedian? :unsure:

Yeah he is from Liverpool.

 

Did you see the Sports Relief program that he took part in?

No -_-

Ah, you missed a good program, got a lot of respect for him.

 

He will be good on the footy pitch against your side :P
