Blues legends Frans Thijssen, Arnold Muhren, Eric Gates, Alan Brazil, Russell Osman and Brian Talbot will be amongst those joining the Life’s a Pitch regulars on Radio Suffolk on Saturday (midday-2pm) to celebrate their team-mate Kevin Beattie turning 60.
Throughout the show, Beattie, the show’s legend-in-residence, presenter Mark Murphy, football’s youngest pundit Tractorboy and TWTD’s Phil Ham will be catching up with the Town stars of the past as they pay tribute to the man often described as the club’s greatest ever player.
Also amongst those dropping in will be Pat Godbold, secretary to all Town managers from Sir Alf Ramsey to George Burley, and local media stalwart and one-time Blues ballboy Stuart Jarrold, who now works with Sky Sports.
Beattie will be a club guest at Saturday's game against Watford and is set to be interviewed by PA man Rob Chandler on the pitch prior to kick-off before watching the match from the directors’ box.
There are also calls on social media for fans to mark Beattie’s birthday, which he celebrated yesterday, with a minute’s applause as the clock ticks past the 60-minute mark.
