Hope Wilson plays. It should be:

Davids--Palacios--Freund--Parker
against:

Sandro--Capoue--Paulinho--Dembele

;)

Anyone know if it will be aired on TV or online somewhere?

Been mentioned loads in this thread - club say not live, and no plans to record, but highlights are apparently going to be aried so, unless they have a psychic camera crew, they will have to film it to edit it.

Expect a DVD.

Hopefully we will get some of our members here reporting from the match. Would've liked to have seen the legend back in our shirt on the pitch.

Looks Like Daveed is really up for this.

@DavidGinolaCeze
So looking forward to the Ledley King Testimonial and playing at @SpursOfficial White Hart Lane on Monday. See you all there!

Interesting article on BBC about Ledders. Nothing new but solidifies his status as one of the biggest cases of "what ifs" in world football.

http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27356339

Pretty much every time I think of Ledley I get sad. When I think of how much he deteriorated in that Man City 3-2 game, how we only every gave him 1 shitty Carling Cup for all his ability and loyalty and how on his big moment in the 2010 WC it all went wrong. Even watching his best moments makes me think about what could have been.

He deserves the best send out possible tomorrow and I wish I was there to see it.

Can't wait for this. I wonder if there will be any more additions to Ledley's XI. In all likelihood, Real will be definitely out of the title race in a couple of hours. So I wonder if Modric and Bale will be given the green light to play some part tomorrow....

I feel sick every time that is mentioned. I almost feel like crying.

Sorry. It brings out the same reaction in me. Never felt so dejected after a spurs game which is saying something.

That season was our best chance of coming close to the title.

Friedal

Walker - King - Kaboul - Ekotto

Lennon - Modric - Parker - Bale

VDV

Adebayor

What a team! Harry really should've done so much better.

I think I was the moment I realised we weren't going to make the step up. Sad indeed. Anyway onwards and upwards!

Will never forget that. When he gave the penalty away I dropped my pint down walked out of the pub in silence and walked from Kings Cross to Archway ignoring phone calls from my mates back at the pub. Think I had an actual mini breakdown! It felt like the moment when all the endless and unwavering hope I had as a young boy supporting spurs through all the crap years had finally been extinguished as we were on the cusp of achieving something great. That idea of unfulfilled promise and potential is symbolic of Ledley's career I suppose. However the talent he gave us and our love for spurs will transcend those feelings as we all cheer him on and thank him for the memories tomorrow night!

You have summed up my exact feelings and reactions at the time. I also got up and walked out as soon as I saw the foul (didn't even wait for the whistle) and sat on a park bench for a while. It was odd, it wasn't even about the loss, it was about what it represented at that time. To describe it as a mini breakdown is very apt.

Real Madrid cannot win the league, so could Modric and/or Bale be allowed to play just a little bit tomorrow?

CL Final bro.
Not for another 13 days. I highly doubt they'd get injured tomorrow as it won't be as competitive as a league/cup game. Play them for the first 45 then sub for Ginola and Davids. I don't see why they couldn't just play for a bit then get subbed. Then again it is Real Madrid, despite this being for a good cause.

Graham Roberts confirmed on Twitter that he, Mark Falco and Mickey Hazard will be taking pens at half time.
Seems like a number of Legends will be at the lane....
