FOOTBALL talk-in organisers have announced a late change in the line-up for a charity event next month.

Chester-le-Street and District branch of the Sunderland AFC Supporters' Association is holding a question and answer session with former club favourites in aid of the BBC's Children in Need appeal.

Branch officials recently revised the bill, which now features guest Sunderland "old-boys" Ritchie Pitt, Mick Horswill and Jeff Clarke, stars of the Black Cats' teams of the 1970s, which won the FA Cup and promotion.

The function is being held at Relton Terrace Workingmen's Club, on Children in Need night, Friday November 16, at 7.30pm.

Tickets cost only £1 each, but further donations can be made on the night to back the BBC children's charities drive.

Businesses in the area have also come forward to sponsor the evening, to the tune of £25 each, ensuring that all proceeds will go to the Children in Need fund.

Tickets are available from Kevin Atkinson at the club, or via the branch hotline, on 0788-792 1726.

Further business sponsors can also ring Kevin on the hotline for further information.
