Well to start with I'm pretty sure the funds will go to charity, rather than Drury himself

Secondly it should be seen as a way to thank and reward Drury for the service he has given. How often does one player stay at a club this long these days? It's fairly priced at ?15 for adults and ?5 for kids as well. And with the likes of Micky Nelson, Pacheco, Lansbury and I'm sure many more coming it should be a top night. Iwan, Hucks, Lambert, Mcveigh too I expect
