    "Adkins, who twice led the team to promotion from League One, will manage the 2009 side while Laws, who brought Byrne to the Iron in 2003, will manage the opposition."

    That crossed my mind too, although I'm not fussed, frankly. Nice gesture of all those taking part.

    Hooper and Sharp up top for the 2009 side?

    Let's hope Nige gets a chance to have a word in his ear.

    Well played Cortese for putting up the funds to host this event and get NA and GH in the same place though!

    Maybe Scunthorpe 2009 should play Rochdale 2005, with Lambert and Holt up front. I'd watch that.

    How has Cortese put up funds for hosting a Scunthorpe event in Scunthorpe?

    Yeah, so would I. That could be great fun, watching the two teammates work together again.

    Stupid - so rather than actually tell me what it's about your going to treat me like a ****ing idiot?

    I wasn't being serious. It was a humorous mention, a suggestion that this is a ploy set-up by Cortese to get Hooper and Adkins in the same place.

    Did you seriously think Cortese would pay for a Scunny charity match?

    Adkins not only bringing Sharp with him, but Jack Cork and Jonathan Forte are playing also.

    It's often hard to tell on a forum without an emoticon

    True, it's very hard to tell someone's joking when they suggest Nicola Cortese paid for a Scunthorpe event for Scunthorpe without any announcement on the Southampton website, it seems like such a realistic thing to happen.

    Similarly we've sacked Nigel Adkins and have hired back Jan Poortvliet in his place - no emoticon so you know I'm telling the truth.
