Leeds stars lining up with manager for Ormsby

Farsley AFC manager Neil Parsley is looking forward to playing alongside Gary McAllister, Simon Grayson and a host of other former Leeds United stars at the EVO-STIK Northern Premier League's Throstle Nest in a benefit match for Brendon Ormsby.

Since suffering a stroke in 2013 and initially being told he would not walk again, the former Whites skipper has completed a 10k race and Parsley is helping to organise the star-studded fundraiser for his old friend at the First Division North club's ground on Sunday 19 April.

As well as former Leeds managers and players McAllister and Grayson, a host of other Leeds legends are set to play in the 1pm kick-off including Ian Baird, Bobby Davison, John Newsome and Gary Kelly.

Tickets for the match priced at £5 went on sale on Monday and are available from the clubhouse at Throstle Nest between 6pm and 9pm during the week and on matchdays. They are also available online at the club shop on Farsley's official website.

* Parsley is looking forward to welcoming forward Adam Priestley back from international duty this Easter weekend after he played in Gibraltar's 6-1 defeat against Scotland at Hampden Park on Sunday.

More than a thousand Gibraltarians in the crowd saw Lee Casciaro score for UEFA's newest member in the Group D qualifier. Priestley, 25, was born in Gibraltar where his father was posted with the RAF. Farsley travel to Northwich Victoria on Saturday before hosting Brighouse Town on Monday.
