But the Saints side will feature players who will be household names to all Southampton supporters young and old, in what will be a keenly contested game with a competitive edge for a trophy that will be played for annually.
The Saints squad will include 1976 FA Cup winner David Peach as well as favourites from the 1980/90/00's, those slated to play at the moment include Matt Le Tissier, James Beattie, Wayne Bridge, Jason Dodd, Glenn Cockerill, David Hughes, Jo Tessem, Tommy Widdrington, Nicky Banger & David Puckett as well a number of other ex Saints not yet announced, there will also be guest appearances from the likes of Brian Howard who made a name for himself after leaving Saints as a youngster and the Roly Poly Goalie himself Wayne Shaw.
But there will be several other legends from the club in attendance who are unable to play but will be coming along to watch and sign autographs.
It is a true family fun evening with something for the kids with a funfair that will start before the game starts and afterwards it will carry on with ex Saint David Hughes getting on the wheels of steel to spin some tunes (Or whatever way they do things these days)
After the game it will be a party atmosphere with not just the music but the Saints squad will be staying on to sign autographs and pose for photos but also to talk to the fans and share memories.
The bars will be open from before the game until late and there will be food available on the evening.
It is hoped that the after match proceedings will be able to take place outside but if there is also plenty of socially distanced indoor space if the weather is not so kind.
