Ex-England star attends charity game

-

Former England and Chelsea star Kerry Dixon was the guest of honour at a charity football match at Maidstone United’s Gallagher Stadium.

He joined hundreds of fans who came through the turnstiles in James Whatman Way to watch the clash, which included a team of Waitrose staff versus the Les Apps Legends on Sunday.

Jamie Houston and former Maidstone boss and manager, Terry Cordice, both scored hattricks in the match, which ended 7-2 in the Legends’ favour.

The game, which was followed by a raffle, raised more than £1,000 for Breast Cancer Care.

Organiser Les Apps said: “It was a great day and a lovely atmosphere, with everyone shaking hands and getting into the spirit.

“I want to thank everyone who made Sunday what is was, particular­ly those who donated raffle prizes and the guys at Waitrose.”
