LUCAS Neill could one of a number of first team stars to feature in a West Ham XI to take on Essex-based outfit Takeley FC.

The Irons are set to play the ambitious Essex Olympian side on Tuesday, April 29 to mark the switching on of the Station Road club's new floodlights.

And Takeley boss Don Watters is expecting the east Londoners to send down a decent line up.

"They said they will confirm who is playing a week in advance but it will be a mixture of first team and known reserve players," he told the Dunmow Broadcaster.

"Lucas Neill, who lives in Takeley, will definitely be involved at some stage and I'm hoping we will get a nice crowd. It should be a really good night."

Tickets for the game are priced at £5 for adults and £2 for concessions. Kick off is at 7pm.
