Andys Manclub

Luke and Karen are promoting a charity event in the UK to raise awareness and funds for Andy's Man Club, a men's mental health charity. They organized a successful charity match last year and are planning an even bigger event this year with multiple teams. The planning and preparation for the event is time-consuming and challenging, but they are dedicated to making it a success. They are generating funds through ticket sales, sponsorship packages, and other fundraising activities. The goal is to create a fun and enjoyable event while also supporting a great cause. right hi guys and how are we today perfect so I've got two people with me I've got Luke and Karen so do you want to explain why you're on today and what you're kind of promoting to get him as my co-organizer at this time and already there's been such a big a jump in everything that's got so much more better as well great to you as well Karen. Thank you mate yeah so yeah like Luke said last year I did loads of the graphic design for the social media side of the event which went really well I think you know we got some really good numbers on a few different you know ultimately end up being a decent sized event for our first one but you know like Luke said I think with the announcers we've already done Angry Chin, Champa, Zynga at the moment I think you can tell we've got the levels massively and yeah we're just looking to become one of the biggest events charity events in the UK. So of course all the event the previous one and this one is being done for the same charity so do either of you have kind of a link to the charity or have done work for the charity previously to a chosen Andy's man's man club to kind of raise awareness of and raise money for? Zynga versus Campion. Yeah yeah so yeah personally I don't. It's a men's mental health charity so they do loads of good work to do with that. It's not a specific charity I've ever had any sort of you know involvement with but obviously you know it's a great cause and it's something that I also feel really strongly about so you know it's a no-brainer to want to get involved really yeah. Yeah so when I had the idea to do a charity match it was the first charity I wanted to do it for. On my tiktok when I used to post more regularly I would do a lot of videos mental health and then once I do it again just kind of be like to teach men that it's okay to feel sad that I suffer mental health terribly but doing this event helped me a lot and knowing that raising awareness of this charity you know it's an honour really to be able to promote Andy's man club because what they do is so special. I respect I mean you speaking so openly about yourself and why you're driven to kind of raise the money for it. If anyone didn't know what Andy's man club is how would you explain it briefly of what the charity does and what the money that you two raise through this these events of the charity matches does for the charity? So we don't know what to do with the money personally. We just give them the money and they fund it. As I say every bit of money, every penny goes to Andy's man club, everything, ticket sales, the God fund me page, everything goes to them. Andy's man club is basically just a safe space for men to go and talk to because the stigma that men can't cry and men have to be strong, you know, men don't want to help us or look after us and it isn't. Obviously we had Paddy the baddie, he came out with that speech, sort of helped the cause a little bit more. But basically yes it's a safe space for men to talk really. They have like group sessions where there's a ball being passed around and if you get the ball you can talk. You can express your feelings. You don't want to, you don't have to, you don't have to, you can pass the ball on. I just think it's such a killer mental health, it kills so many people. So as I say it's an honour to raise money for them. Perfect, I mean I think you've summed it up perfectly. A lot of people, especially older people, overlook it and kind of we're very blessed in a way to be in a kind of generation that actually cares for our kind of mental health and kind of what's going on inside with us as well as the outside. So you having kind of this alliance to this charity and raising funds for them is massive and people should speak up and should have that safe space to talk about it. I mean I know a lot of people and especially in certain lines of work feel like they can't talk up. So having that place where, as you've said, they can kick a ball around and when they get the ball they can talk if they want to, gives people that outlet in different ways. You doing what you're doing is a massive achievement and the people that of course we're going to talk about that you've had on previously in your event, as well as now the upcoming announcements and who you've announced already, you're doing massive things and you're kind of raising a load of money and awareness for the charity. So of course the first match happened last year, so how did the planning and the preparation go to start as well as kind of the event as a whole? Yeah, last year as well, VCA, but it was good, it was very good. We raised a good amount of money which is ultimately the thing we're trying to do and that's always really the goal. So we completed that in that aspect, but you know for me it was the first ever charity match I've ever been involved in. Never done anything like this, never organised anything like this before, so yeah it was a real learning curve on how things are prepared, how things are organised and yeah it's been really, really fun just doing things and preparing things and talking to these influencers and things like that. There's definitely a large amount of players to play, me and Luke have encountered plenty of them, but yeah I wouldn't challenge it for the world. I think we've done really, really well for our first event and like I say I think the second one, I think with what we've learned already and what we now know, I think we can pick it up the levels even more. So yeah, we originally were supposed to do it a year prior, that was, yeah we had to postpone it because I wasn't really prepared at all. I was very naive going into what actually goes into charity matches, I was very naive to think about that and I've learned from that. But yeah as I say, a lot does go behind the scenes, it isn't just a Sunday league match you know where you just turn up, you know you have to go through so many hurdles and it's, to a touch wood so far we're doing really well, like progressing a lot faster than before we would to be honest. But yeah, we can announce some of those things soon, but yeah it's a lot of work, a lot of mental draining and especially when people drop out as well. Like in the last week I think I've had five dropouts and I was so mentally drained, they were all for legit reasons, you know it wasn't that people couldn't be out, it's like three injuries randomly out of nowhere and yeah recovering from that, you know it was quite hard. But we might be at the play then, so in the end they're up 2-0. And I think it's really important to mention as well, like Ryan Lucas just said, how much time and effort and dedication has to go into these charity matches. What you just said, the Farsi one in 2022 I think when we were meant to do our initial first one, looking back on it, it was so underprepared, so just bad compared to what we actually did this year. I think because it's not publicly shown, I think a lot of people don't understand that sort of side of it. There's so many hours talking to people and trying to get things sorted and then when things don't go right, you don't just give up, you keep trying for other things. And yeah I think with the increased amount of charity matches, I feel like there's one every week at the moment, I think it's important that people recognise that it's very hard work to put one on and credit to anyone that pulls off a successful one really. 100% and I mean, I've done charity work in the past last year, I did quite a few events for blood cancer charity, so I mean that's me doing it off my own back and doing things that I could do on my own, whereas you're trying to organise yourself a venue as well as potentially up to 30 would you say, other people? Well, way more than that. The style that we're doing it this year, last year was an 11v11 sort of game, but this year we've got four different teams involved, so it's going to be like a tournament style. It's very hectic, there's a lot still to do, but we've come a long way in such a short amount of time here, preparing for this next one, so I think we're in a really good place at the moment. So we're looking forward to the next year to be honest. We're looking at, so there's going to be four games in total, two games, two semi-finals, a third place play-off and a final. So we're looking to do potentially 25 and a half, but have a shorter break between games, so it doesn't drag out too much. And everyone gets football, do you know what I mean? You do want that competitive element towards it, but at the end of the day, you're not getting money out of it, the players aren't, it's not necessarily for them to grab, it's for making money for the charity. So we just want everyone to turn up, new players, and have a good day really. We don't really want the competitiveness to be too high, we just want everyone to come together for the cause. Yeah, I think one of the big ones that we always look up to, I think everyone who creates these events looks at it, obviously the size doesn't match. And you know, it's very obvious that they don't want it to be taken too seriously, you know, you've got the Calder Dragons, ex-KP's in goal and things like that. It helps do it, it makes it more enjoyable. And yeah, I think it just helps you as an event, you know, if everyone's sort of very fun about it, you know what I mean? Because that's the idea of it, you know, it's football, it's a game, it's meant to be fun. And if you can raise money alongside that, then even better. I assume that there'll be ticket sales, but what else behind the scenes do you do to generate more money for the charity? It's a very, very long process of getting that all sorted. So we've got plenty of sponsorship packages. Luckily, we've got quite a lot of them filled already, which is massive for us. And we've got really, really interesting talks coming in the next few days, sort of regarding more things to do with that. So yeah, that's going to be a very, very interesting time for us. So yeah, you know, like you say, ticket sales are a massive bit, but there's also, you know, your kit sponsors, individual player sponsors, people that sponsor the live stream that we're doing, people that sponsor the programme that we're putting out. There's loads of things that go into it. And yeah, we just want to, we want to help the people as well that are willing to put their money into it. So we've got, for example, one of the first people to get on board, he's now sponsored both Angry Ginge and Bazinga, a company called Man of the Match Football. I want to give a big shout out to them because they're one of the first that got involved and they've really helped us so far. Yeah, they've come on board, they've sponsored our sort of trophy Man of the Match package. So yeah, it's going to be really, really interesting following the events because that's where they'll get most of their coverage, I would have thought. So yeah, just people like that, you know, people that are willing to put their money and their time in to help us, we want to give back and also, you know, provide them with eyes and potentially like, you know, sales for their business and things like that. Yeah, 100%. And it shows with how you guys talk, that you're aware of people's input and trying to give something back, which is nice, because of course, a lot of people don't understand the ins and outs and how you've explained people will just arrive at an event and be like, Oh, yeah, it was a good day out. Whereas all the people that are putting together to help you create this event, it wouldn't happen if it wasn't for them. So no, fair play. And I mean, do you want to run through some of the options that you do have and like the pricing? So if people do listen, and they are interested in sponsoring, even if it's a minimum amount, how they will do that and what they could get? Yeah. So, yeah, it's very, very much up in the air at the moment. Like I say, we've got a few ongoing talks in the next couple of days. We're not on any shifts just yet. But we've definitely got plenty of individual player sponsors. I know no one else has been announced apart from Jinx and Zynga just yet. But, you know, it started to start, what we always say, what we're saying with these sponsors as well, like, we're saying for the player sponsors, for example, it's a minimum of £20 sort of input to that, which means sort of if you wanted to donate more, obviously, that will help us increase production and, you know, ultimately make the event better. So yeah, all our things are kind of like that. We've got places on the on the stream, sponsors still available, program sponsors still available. And yeah, if anyone is interested in any of that, drop us a DM on the awareness for any fans of any one of our social media pages or drop us an email or whatever. And yeah, we can hopefully get you sorted. Yeah. Perfect. And I mean, what other ways can they donate? Is there kind of a Just Giving page? Or is there kind of another way of donating? Is there kind of fundraising events you're potentially doing before? Is there anything else how people can give to your kind of cause of the charity match and awareness for Andy's Monks Club? Yeah, there will be a, we did it last year, and we raised quite a lot of money on it last year. There will be a GoFundMe page and we're looking to do a raffle this year as well. It's something we tried the previous one we didn't really have enough time of. It's something that we didn't really, yeah, it didn't really happen. But next year, yeah, we're going to put more organisations to the raffle and we're going to try and give away like tickets as well. Yeah, so more people can come and watch and just make it as enjoyable day as possible really. Nice. I mean, how many people did attend last year? And what is kind of your max capacity at the venue? I can't actually remember an exact number we had last year. It was, I want to say around 200 tomorrow, which is very, very good to be fair, you know. But yeah, like I said, with this year, we're just looking to have everything. So we moved venue from Therabyte, which is sort of Hull Way to Ilkeston, which is Nottingham sort of way. And it's just, it's a brilliant facility. I've been there a number of times myself. And it's a great little place. So yeah, we're looking at it sort of, we're hoping sort of 1000-ish. That's a very, very, you know, ambitious push, but that's ideally what we want to get to. And I think with the numbers we've got now, I don't see why not, you know, we've got some brilliant content creators with millions of followers. So, you know, if they rally their fans and get down to Ilkeston, hopefully we can see numbers like that. 100%. And I mean, you've said as well, previously, if people can't get to Ilkeston town to support In The Flesh, you're also doing a live stream. So is that going up on YouTube? And can people donate through that as well? How is that kind of concept coming along? Yeah, last year, we did a live stream. So we're looking to do the exact same again, really. Yeah, it's a good way for people to get involved, obviously, if you can't make it down to Nottingham for whatever reason. Yeah, you know, we want to get people involved on the stream. It did quite a lot of numbers wise last year as well. But yeah, we're trying to just up, we're just trying to up it really. You know, we want to bring, you know, presenters and things and a comedy theme and better production value as a whole. So yeah, there's going to be hopefully a really, really sick stream that people can tune in on. And then, you know, if people feel like they want to donate from watching at home, obviously, we're open to that as well. Obviously, we'll have a just given page and then, you know, anything that anyone can give to that would obviously be massively, massively appreciated. Perfect. And I mean, what you kind of got cooking now, I feel like a lot of people are going to jump on and kind of support is, I mean, the people that you've already announced and the people that you had last time shows kind of the calibre of YouTube or social influencer that you can get on. So hopefully they'll be interested in at least one of them and come on and support you guys as well. Do you both play in the games previously and this time? Yeah. Do you play on the same team or different? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how we're going to how we're going to work it this year, but we did manage to win last year. Potentially, some people were trying for it to be rigged, but yeah, I don't know. We'll have to see. We haven't decided on any teams just yet. So it'll be very interesting to see how we end up. I don't think I've actually played in a couple of charities. I've never played against League. So, you know, I might have to cross my feet on the opposite team. What positions do you both play? I'm more of a attacking player. I'm pretty much the opposite. I'm more of a fullback or a defensive midfielder. So it'll be a nice duel, hopefully, if you come against each other. I was going to kind of focus on kind of the highs and the defining moments of the kind of journey you've been on with these, well, the first one, as well as preparing for the second one. So what do you think the biggest achievement for the events so far has been? I think definitely getting the interest off the team, yeah. I think that is. You know, he's one of the sidemen. Do you know what I mean? He's pretty mental. And Jason as well, you know, he's absolutely blown up massively of this year. He's such a nice guy as well. I've met him quite a few times. He played last year. He's such a nice guy. Yeah, I think just attracting these sort of names along the way. I think that's one of the big things, because there's so many charity matches out there now. There's so many. Yeah, to get these sort of names and for them to buy into our cause of mental health is brilliant. I think, you know, getting the names down and, to be honest, actually being able to be in a position to do this, I think is also a high, because, you know, just the privilege of being able to do this. Doing that much, you know, just being in a situation, I think is a privilege in itself. Yeah, no, I'd agree. I think I wasn't as involved last year, I wouldn't say, but, you know, I can see from Luke, as soon as the referee called that final whistle, it's just like you take a step back and realise everything's done now. The game's been played, you know, everything you've worked for months towards has sort of just come off. And I think after this event, it'll hit even harder for us, really, because, like I said, we put even more time and effort into this one. So I think just that feeling, that first point after the referee has blown his whistle, it's just going to hurt a thousand times sweeter. And do you think with the second one, is that kind of another stepping stone for you to go bigger and better and evolve? Or do you feel like this is your bigger and better and you'll be comfortable with the kind of two-hour charity matches? Yeah, I think potentially, like, it's pretty much up in the air. We've not even completed our second one yet, so it's very hard to say. So, yeah, I think we just have to take it day by day and just see where we are. You know, if we want to go and do another one after we've done this one, if it goes alright, you know, we've got the connections, we've got the facilities to make that happen, you know, we know how to up it as well. We can get a bigger stadium, we can get more people involved or whatever. So, yeah, it'll be interesting to see, like, the conclusion after that, where we go, what we want to do. I'm definitely not opposed at the moment to having a third one. I think it's a really cool thing to, you know, show the fans and then the awareness, I guess, about Newfoundland even more. So, yeah, it'll be really, really cool. Yeah, no, I agree. I love, obviously, I don't think about a third one too much at the moment, because obviously, it's sort of the process of this one. But, yeah, no, I love to do it as long as we possibly can, really. Like, that's my aim, really, just to keep, you know, to build in Andy's man's club as much as possible. And the main aim would be able to do it in a football league stadium, I think. Yeah, I think that would be, like, I mean, obviously, I've come from, by the way, but it's not feel like non-league ground at all. It's very good for its level. But, like, I'm on the bar, it's a championship. That's, like, maybe two or three down the line. Like, that would be the dream. That would be our West Ham, but, you know, that's unfortunate. That would be the dream. You've got to try and do a Sidemen numbers and figures to try and get that one. I can't imagine what day you go through to do that, Jesus Christ. What do you think the defining moment is, kind of, on this journey for yourselves? So, is there kind of a moment, whether it be good or bad, that's kind of defined these events for you two? I think, personally, when we first initially had the idea, when Luke initially had the idea in 2022 to, you know, go through with this, and then we built all this, all these connections with people, and we built this account, and we built this brand, in a way. And then, for us to be let out of our feet by a ground, and, you know, really, it sort of impacts the events, and then that plate never ends up showing ahead. And things like that, it's just all of these negatives, all these setbacks, and just the ability to get through them, you know, just to say, you know, we really do want to do this, we want to put our mind to it, no matter what comes our way, I guess. And, yeah, to keep going, and then to make an event that was a million times better than we could have dreamed of when we first had the ideas. Yeah, I think that was a really defining moment. Yeah, no, I agree. Like, the first time doing it, it was so mentally draining, like, because a lot of the sponsors last year were through family businesses. So, the budget wasn't, like, as good as it is this year, touch wood. So, they've got, like, grounds asking for so much money, and, like, yeah, it was just a lot of getting, like, notes, or it'd be this amount of money, X amount of money, and not available on this date. And I had this, like, group of people waiting for something, and to keep telling them, yeah, I don't know, I don't know yet. It was, yeah, I nearly gave up, can't lie, the first time doing it. I thought, yeah. And then, Farrah B just got in contact with them, and, yeah, they were really good with it, really. They kept the players safe. Yeah, they were really, really nice people to work with. They, you know, thought they had issues, or had building up to it. They were very cooperative with things. So, yeah, I think my words would be, though, for anyone who wants to think about doing it, do not fall at the first hurdle, because if we did that after the first one, then, you know, we wouldn't be in this position right now. Yeah, I think if a ground lets you down, or, you know, I think, you think about how many grounds there are in England. Jesus, I'm not a ground guy to call, like, but, you know, there's so many grounds in England, the stamps, like, it doesn't necessarily mean how big the ground is. As long as you get that match done, then that's the best thing you can do, really, I think. If you raise, like, if you raise, like, from a pound to 10 grand, you've still contributed something, that's what I think. Definitely, I agree with that. And hopefully, this just, with the kind of setback that you had of the 2022 one not going ahead, I feel that's made you guys more determined that these want to be good and have a good quality. But it's not like you're going to your old school and kind of putting it on there on their field, you're actually trying to push for good quality and good names. And as well, a main point that you said, you're trying to keep the players safe at all times is, of course, now, of course, with the added pressure that you've got of having high profile names, that's a big factor for you guys. And people overlook these things, especially people that aren't kind of in that world. So for you guys to kind of take all of that on board and in your stride is a massive props to both of you for what you're doing at the moment. So fair enough. Yeah, thank you. Yeah. Like I said, I think it's a massive learning curve that happened. I'm glad that it happened to be honest with you. If we'd have gone ahead with that 2022 one, it would have been a disaster. So I think having that period of being down, but using that to come back and improve things like the social media and improve things like, you know, the ground that we've gone and the connections that we made. I think it just resulted in a lot better for us to be honest with you. And like I said, if anything, it's a benefit to us that it happened in that way. 100 percent. I agree. And I mean, you're getting more awareness now than what you were at the beginning. So kind of if the 2022 one happened, these others may not have. So there we are. Everything happens for a reason. And that's it. And you're smashing it now. I wanted to ask the question now, which I feel links with the charity. So, of course, asking you both to give a piece of advice, maybe to your younger self when you were at a time where you were quite low or struggling, as well as other people, no matter how old they are, how your piece of advice may help them to maybe seek help through the charity or maybe help them acknowledge that they can strive for greatness and it's not all dark and they don't have to go down a dark path of potentially suicide or something that could cause harm. If that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, I think I've always said this about things like mental health. I think it's very hard for you to find out how you deal with it. You know, you read things online about like, you know, going for walks or, you know, tagging yourself on social media, but it doesn't help everyone. It's not like a blanket statement. You know, it's very much down to the individual how you deal with things like that. And you just need to work out what works for you. And don't feel put down if something doesn't work for you because, you know, talking to friends might work for someone, but it might not work for you. So, yeah, it's difficult. You know, you've got to work that out. You've got to keep going as well. You know, you can't get disheartened with it. You know, there's always light at the end of the tunnel. But, you know, yeah, I think that's my main thing, really, just having the determination to work out what works for you and keeping going until after that. Yeah. And it kills so many people. And even not having necessarily mental health, but having a disability as well, like something that makes you feel different. It's so hard to adapt to that when you don't have the right support. And I think anyone can do what they want to do. Like, say, advice to younger self, I am one million percent a completely different person. I am now than what I used to be. Like, yeah. And I think if I told myself, someone told me that they didn't work for a cause, that means a lot to you. Do you know what I mean? Like, you start doing stuff, something that means so much to you, and you never believe it. Like, you don't. And I think anyone could do whatever they want to do, generally. I think the most important thing for a strong, different mental health, the first step is to realize what's going on. And the second step is to talk to someone. Like, it doesn't have to be someone you know. There's hotlines, like Samaritans. There's so many suicide awareness people that, charities, that you can just call and, you know, they won't see you. They won't judge you. You know, there's so many people out there who can help you. And I know you can feel at the bottom of the world, the deepest part of the earth, and you feel like there's no way out of the tunnel, but there is. I'm still trying to get out of my own tunnel. I'm still trying to get out of it. It's hard. It takes time. You don't just get over it overnight. And I think when you make that first step onto that long path, it's worth it in the end. It's not worth taking your own life. And I think it's important to highlight as well, the people that don't suffer with mental health issues. You know, I'm lucky, myself, I've never faced or dealt with anything long term like that. No, you know, depressions or anxiety or things like that. I count myself extremely, extremely lucky with that. But, you know, we play a part. We play a part in being able to be an outlet to those people that do, whether that's talking to them or just doing things with them. And just educating yourself is a very, very important thing, you know, what to do in these scenarios, how you sort of look for these people that are showing signs of having things like this. I think it's really important that everyone is involved. And just because you don't suffer doesn't mean that you don't have a part to play in helping people. 100%. And I mean, from what you guys have both said there, I'm hoping that at the end of your event, the second one, that you actually say a few words of, so for all the people that are going to come, why it's actually been put on is how you two have kind of portrayed mental health and kind of the help and kind of especially with you dealing with it in the tunnel scenario and how you've explained it. People need to hear that. And I feel like with the people you've got on the platform and the stage that you're putting on for yourselves, saying them words and kind of letting the people hear what you've got to say. Could hopefully make a massive change. And I don't know if you've got plans to kind of do a speech at the kind of trophy presentation or anything. But if not, I feel like you should certainly consider it. I was fully engaged with you and I kind of was just staring as Luke's not got his camera on. So I was just staring at the speech and like staring into your soul, like just taking every word in that you two said. So 100% that's something I feel that could move a lot of people and could put a massive stamp on why you guys are doing it. Yeah, definitely. I mean, that's actually not anything that we've sort of thought about, to be fair. I haven't anyway, doing a speech like that or anything. But I mean, yeah, 100%, like, I think that's actually a really, really good idea. We can definitely implement. I think, you know, if we're impacting someone's life, whoever that might be, in a positive way, and, you know, they seek out help, or they know a bit more about it, or they talk to their friends that they think might be suffering. You know, as long as one single person that views the live stream or comes to the game or is involved in the game, as long as there's one person that's job done, in my opinion, that's exactly the sort of thing that we're striving towards. Yeah, I mean, it depends how anxious I feel about doing that. But yeah, no, I doubt we'll have to. Yeah, I think on like, along with the match, we are going to try to potentially do some sort of, not like a high level production, like a documentary, with some new creators playing and speaking about mental health as well. Because, along with the match, we also do want to push a lot of mental health stuff a bit. Like, we repost a lot of the Banditland Facebook stories. And yeah, I really want to do some work with some of the creators, just like, speaking about their experiences. And, you know, because people who watch content creators, you know, they may not know what they're going through. And we don't know what people are going through either. So it'd be good to try and get some information from the creators themselves, if they feel comfortable to do so, obviously, to see if they can support the charity as well and give their own words. So yeah. Yeah, I think it can quite easily get lost as well, sort of the main goal of a cause. As a viewer, maybe, of these events, you know, you come down to the match, and you see Angry Jinx, you see Bazinga. But, you know, I think it's quite easy to forget what you're there for and what you're raising money for and what you're, you know, supporting really. And that's why, you know, like Luke said, we make a very, very conscious effort to repost things about mental health. That's why this charity, Andy's Man Club, is specifically in our event's title, because we want people to notice it and think about it and, you know, not for it to leave their mind. 100%. I think you guys are doing a good job for the charity and the awareness as a whole. So big props to you guys. And just to kind of finish off, I've got some kind of quick fire questions for you both. So they're just easy going. And you'll be able to answer all of them. And I don't have a doubt in my mind that you would. So my first one is Cream Stadium to kind of host this venue at. I've already heard, of course, West Ham being mentioned, but if you've got any others, of course, share. I mean, I'd enjoy the holiday, to be honest. So I'd be game for that. Yeah, for me, it would actually be Upton Park, actually. The old West Ham Stadium. Going there for the first time was amazing. Obviously, I love London Stadium, Upton Park. Also, the whole city stadium, because I'm from there. So I'd love that. But the dream would be Upton Park. Obviously, I can't do that anymore. Yeah, so I can't really give a realistic answer about that because I support a non-league side. So our stadium is probably worse than the one we're actually going to be playing at. It's a tricky one. Fair enough. My next question is, if you could take one thing from this event, so a piece of, let's say, football memorabilia, what would you be wanting to take from the event to kind of take home? Oh, Luke, you go first. I need some time. What do you mean, something that's happened in the event? Oh, no, so a piece of memorabilia. So say, for example, Bazinga scores the winning goal, and he goes, here you go, I've got my right boot, as a kind of memorabilia thing, or kind of a shirt signed by all the players or something like that. Yeah, I'll tell you what I'd do, actually. Little spoiler, we're going to announce it now. For example, if Danny Aron were to ever play in our next match, I would definitely take home his little Edgar Davids goggles that he wears, because those are dripping. Love them. I don't know. Actually, I don't know. Maybe a photo of Bazinga doing the hammer sign, actually, because we both wear hammer signs. I think that, yeah. I think maybe that, yeah. No, that's nice. And you could get him to sign the back or something, so you've always got it. Yeah. Nice. Who would you both liken yourself to? If you could liken yourself to any player in the game, to describe yourself, who would you say, if you had to pick one player to liken yourself to? I'd say Liverpool's Raheem Sterling. One, because I run like him. And two, I just can't score goals. I can dribble, I've got pace, but I'm just allergic to scoring goals. I went by two years on a goal. Have you seen Luke? You've got a Demetri Koya-esque free-kick on you. Yeah, I did score a free-kick the last event, but that was a fluke. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know who I'd go for. I'd say Kapu for you or Daniel. Kapu, yeah. Yeah, maybe I'd go with Kapu when he was like six years old. Nice. So, my last question's going to be, if you could get one dream person that potentially is playing, we don't know at this point, but if you could put one person to play in your event, maybe in the future, who would you both pick? Is it anyone at all? Anyone at all. Anyone. It's just someone that you maybe like or kind of an idol, or it can be someone that you personally role model to you. So, you could even say something like your brother or anything. Like, whoever you'd feel the most proud to kind of play alongside or be star-struck by. Yeah, that's good. That's good. To be fair, I don't know. I don't really take much of a massive interest in celebrity culture and things like that. So, I don't really have any famous role models or things like that, but I've never really had that. I don't know. Maybe like someone that I like musically or something. I don't know who to go for, maybe like Tom Van Dyke, for example. I'm a massive fan of him. I respect a lot of what he does. And I bet he's a baller as well. So, yeah, maybe getting him down. That would be very, very cool. But, yeah, I'm not overly sure. I'll do one content creator and one footballer. A content creator is Spencer Effie. Because I took loads and loads of inspiration from him. Like, hashtag United. I met him on Sunday on the evening with me and my mates. Got that from hashtag United. And, you know, Wembley Cup. A lot of my inspirations I've done in life is from Spencer. He's a West Ham fan again. And football, it's so boring. Mark Noble. There we go. No, it's not Mark Noble, but Messi, generally. Oh, that's fair enough. Yeah, Messi's my favourite footballer of all time. I don't have to say Messi. It's boring. But, yeah, I think I'll just, I don't think I'll be able to play properly. I'll show him the pitch of the greatest footballer of all time, you know. I don't want to cramp him, though. He'll be getting two foot straight away. Great questions there, by the way. Oh, no, thank you. Thank you. I mean, six-year-old Cafu will be Brexit-tackling Messi any day, so it's all cool. This is exactly it. This is what we were focusing on before. Just to kind of finish, do you want to tell people where they can find the event, the day, the time, as well as where people can find kind of your kind of social media presence? Yeah, so, 8th of June next year, or after the end of it, Ilkeston Tower, which is up Nottingham Way. So, we'll be in Nottingham and Derby, I guess. So, yeah, if anyone's coming around the area, we've got plenty of social media pages or awareness for any Minecraft, they're all called that. So, yeah, check us out. We'll be releasing sort of ticket info and things like that also in the new year. So, yeah, stay tuned, drop us a follow, and obviously, you'll get to see loads of the creators that we're announcing throughout the rest of this month and December. But, yeah, yeah, just drop us a follow and then join the event, I suppose. Yeah, yeah. It's all, we've got a Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram page, so we've got clues on all the social medias. Yeah, donate if you can when the donation page is up, probably next year, around that time. Yeah, there'll be another, when is this podcast, oh, sorry. There'll be the end of November, so a couple of weeks. Oh, no, because I've ruined Danny Aron's for nothing then, I'll be fine. Oh, yeah, so tomorrow we're announcing Icebeard, and then next week will be Danny Aron, and then, yeah, and then after that, you know. I don't know, it might be Calder Dragons, maybe. Who knows? Who knows? No, wicked. If not, you've just spoiled it all for fun, haven't you? Well, this is it, yeah. But like I said earlier as well, sponsorships, if anyone's interested in that. We've got a whole post on our Instagram about it. So, yeah, it's one of the pinned ones, so it's the first thing you see as you come into the account. If anyone's interested in player sponsorships or anything like that, you know, drop us a DM, drop us an email. Yeah, we'll get you sorted. And I think the last thing to say is, of course, thank you for coming on and kind of sharing everything about the charity and yourselves and the event. Because, of course, hopefully, me being from Derby and you doing such a big event near kind of my hometown, it's kind of a pleasure and something that hopefully a lot of people that listen to and my mates and stuff will hopefully come and see you in Elkeston and enjoy some football. Hopefully, yeah. We'll have to definitely get you down. Yeah, we'll make sure you're there. But, yeah, thank you for giving us the support. No, 100 percent. Any time, boys. I'm happy to help out your cause. So, no, thank you. The pleasure's been all mine.
