What time and channel is this soccer aid on?

**KME** · 09-07-2008, 01:54 PM

ITV1, is on now. Am watching because I recall seeing a couple of notable legends on the list of players.

And seeing as I started Sixth Form already, I have no preperation to do.

Watched the Soccer Aid match and it was rather enjoyable as they always seem to be with high scores. Shearer? Was it a hatrick or was it not, he was certainly claiming it

. Would say the best celebrity or non footballer would have to off been the right winger for England. From McFly i am sure, can't remember his name. Danny or something.

Also. Some real good players in the Rest of the world team including Jaap Stam, Luis Figo, Romario and Baresi. Romario wasn't up to much if i am honest however and that empty net miss was terrible. Don't know why Figo was playing but he was obviously a step up from the rest and didn't see him get tackled once in the game.

And i better not forget, Di Canio who was playing as a holding midfielder it seemed at some points. Ashame for big Gordon Ramsey as well

. Surprised he didn't train with Rangers to get him sharp, suppose LA Galaxy is a joke and probably let any big name train with them.

Jaap was immense.

He got outmuscled by Craig David though, all his good work was erased by that moment of greatness.
