Liverpool Football Club and the Dons Trust, owners of AFC Wimbledon, have joined forces to re-run the 1988 FA Cup final – and you have the chance to play in it. The match takes place on Sunday 12 September at Kingsmeadow, the home of AFC Wimbledon and one place in each side can be bid for by fans.
Bids for the Liverpool place can be made here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5118157125
Bids for the Wimbledon place can be made here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5118157984
Bidding ends 02-Sep-04 11:08:16 BST
For Wimbledon Lawrie Sanchez, Andy Thorn, Terry Gibson, Alan Cork, John Scales, Clive Goodyear, Warren Barton, Efan Ekoku, Wally Downes, Marcus Gayle, Jason Euell and Robbie Earle are all set to be there with Terry Burton as manager. Brian Hall, the referee back in 1988, will once again officiate.
It will be a truly memorable day and a complete one off. The winning bidder once at the ground will receive VIP treatment throughout.
If bidding for that is a bit too rich for you then there’s still a chance to wear the red of Liverpool in a fans/celeb game. All you need to do is email bids@thedonstrust.org with the shirt number your bidding for, your name, address, contact telephone number, shirt size and preferred playing position. Each winning bid will be guaranteed at least 30 minutes on the pitch!

A donation will be made to The Hillsborough Fund.
