A host of Nottingham Forest's all-time greats will unite to help raise funds and awareness in honour of Samantha Birtles, the wife of Reds legend Garry Birtles.
The likes of Martin O'Neill, Nigel Clough, Steve Chettle, Andy Reid and Mark Crossley have all signed up to be a part of the Samantha Birtles Trophy, which will be played at Basford United's Greenwich Avenue stadium, on Sunday June 27 at 3pm.
The game will be followed by interviews with those involved with BT Sport commentator Darren Fletcher posing the questions.
Funds raised on the day will go to Treetops Hospice at the request of Samantha, who has terminal pancreatic cancer, a condition she has had for two years, after being told she would not live past last March initially.
"A lot of people have come together to put this game forward. Basford United have been brilliant," Garry said on this week's Garibaldi Red podcast.
"Steve Chettle, the manager there, he used to be my apprentice. He used to clean my boots at Forest. It's all for Treetops and it's just snowballing.
"Martin O'Neill's now agreed to be a manager and Nigel Clough will be with him as well. There are so many people coming.
"A lot of the European lads are coming and it's just incredible the amount of people who want to come and play.
"Gary Mills has said he's going to play. Tony Woodcock wants to play. He wants me and him to play together. I said you have no chance of that!
"I'm sitting there with a glass of wine watching but I can't thank everybody enough - friends, family, it's just incredible the the love out there.
"The footballing family, it spreads far and wide, not just at the top. It goes go to the grassroots. It's going to be a cracking day.
"Samantha's absolutely not a football lover, in fact she'll tell you she hates the game of football. She's never liked it, never liked publicity or anything like that but because of what's happening to her, she wants it out there that people need to get themselves checked if they show symptoms of illness.
"Treetops do a brilliant job. It's all free and they need £4.3m a year to keep going. The government funds some of it but they have to get their rest themselves."
Tickets are £10 for adults, £7 concessions and family tickets are £25. They are available from www.bufcclubshop.com.
