Added some information. Corrected the Ticketmaster information, for Ticketmaster.com doesn't list the tix, only Ticketmaster.co.uk
Cheers
Maiden were rumored for Soccer Six last year but I never knew if they played or not...
However, Bruce and Adrian participated in a charity football game for 'Give a Child a Chance' on Sunday, May 9 2004 at the Goodison Park, Everton, UK.
And here is a pic made by our member ohgar boy of Steve participating in the UK Soccer Celebrity team that played in June 2004 in Italy (the team featured Steve Harris, Gazza, Paolo Di Canio, Tony Hadley, Chris Evans, Mick Hucknall and they were coached by Claudio Raneiri & Joe Jordan):
Cheers

Yes, the Maiden team will be lacing up their boots and kicking balls around all in the name of charity!
Tomorrow night (Friday) there's a charity 11-a-side game at Upton Park, then on Sunday it's the annual music industry 'Soccer Six' tournament.
Kick off for the Friday evening game is at 7pm - best to contact Upton Park box office directly with enquiries.
