Bids are now being taken for fans wanting the chance to play at Tannadice in Dundee United legend Dave Bowman’s ninth annual charity match to raise funds for skin cancer and dementia charities.
The game between fans making successful bids and a team of past tangerine greats takes place on Friday week with a 6.30pm kick-off.
This year the fans’ team will be turning out in a special kit in honour of United’s roots as Dundee Hibernian.
“This is now the ninth year of these games taking place and there is no doubt I am getting slower,” said Bowman.

“The old fire is still burning so nobody better try to beat me on the park.
“Seriously, this is always a great evening and a lot of fun and every year it makes me happy that players from all ability levels take part in the game.
“It is all about enjoying the game. More importantly, it is for two great causes in skin cancer and dementia charities.”
The top 15 bids will secure places in the team and they can be placed by e-mailing Bow at mybid@dundeeunitedfc.co.uk
The winners will be notified on Tuesday.
