Word up jazz cats.
I am part of the squad for this years Robert Eaton Memorial Fund chairty match.
Robert Eaton was a Brighton fan who tragically lost his life in the 9/11 attacks in New York.
Ever since, Brighton fans have worked hard to raise money in his name through a varity of fundraising events. Traditionally, the largest one is the Brighton vs Palace supporters match which takes place each year.
This year's match takes place on May 8 at Lewes F.C's Dripping Pan home. Each player is encouraged to raise as much money as they - which is where YOU come in.
If you could spare any money, however small, it would be hugely appreciated and would continue to help youngsters across the world continue to enjoy playing football.
And of course, if you can make it down on the night it would be great to see you. You may even be able to tempt a pint out of me as a thanks for the support.
Previous games have seen appearances from Rick Marlowe (Abion legend and Robert's favourite player), former England, Palace and Albion boss Peter Taylor and former Brighton midfield general Paul Rogers.
There are even rumours that Albion's greatest ever player, Peter Ward, might make an appearance.
