Dutch step-over king Fabian Wilnis is the latest former Town player to be recruited to the Legends side taking on Colchester United at the Weston Homes Community Stadium on Sunday 17th October (KO 3.30pm). Other new additions to the squad are James Scowcroft, Kevin Horlock, Gavin Johnson and Geraint Williams.

Wilnis, who moved back to Holland after ending his career with Grays Athletic, will be appearing for the Legends for the first time.

Already in what looks like a strong squad are Alex Mathie, Russell Osman, Matt Holland, Simon Milton, John Wark and David Johnson while the former U’s include Mark Kinsella, Martin Grainger, Tony English, Peter Cawley and Paul Abrahams.

The teams will be playing for the Ross Crouch Memorial Trophy, which remembers the former Colchester youth player, whose father Nigel was with Town in the 1970s and whose uncle Steve Foley coached at Portman Road having previously held numerous roles at at Layer Road. Tickets go on sale soon and will cost £5 for adults and £1 for concessions.
