Blundell Park will welcome two huge names from the world of football over the coming months, with former Premier League goalkeeper Mark Crossley and Everton icon Duncan Ferguson both set to appear at the home of the Mariners, in partnership with Nor-Lait Promotions.
Football fans will have the chance to hear stories from two players who enjoyed hugely memorable careers at the highest level, with both events offering an evening of entertainment, football memories and the opportunity to get closer to the stars.
An Evening with Mark Crossley
First up is An Evening with Mark Crossley, taking place at Blundell Park on Friday 4th September, with arrivals from 7pm.
Hosted by Nor-Lait, the evening promises an unforgettable night with the former Premier League goalkeeper, who enjoyed a long and distinguished playing career.
Crossley spent 13 years with Nottingham Forest, making more than 300 appearances for the club, before going on to represent the likes of Middlesbrough, Stoke City, Fulham, Sheffield Wednesday and Oldham Athletic.
He also earned eight full caps for Wales and has since moved into coaching, working with a number of clubs following his retirement from playing.
The former goalkeeper became particularly renowned during his time at Forest and remains a hugely popular figure among supporters.
Individual tickets for the evening are £12, while a table of 10 is available for £100.

An Evening with Duncan Ferguson
Later in the year, Blundell Park will welcome another iconic Premier League figure when Duncan Ferguson arrives for an evening on Friday 6th November.
Proudly sponsored by DN Assessments, the event will celebrate the career of one of the most recognisable figures in Premier League history.
Known affectionately as ‘Big Dunc’, Ferguson began his career with Dundee United before moving to Rangers and subsequently making his name in England with Everton and Newcastle United. He returned to Everton in 2000 and remained at Goodison Park until his retirement in 2006.
Ferguson won the FA Cup with Everton in 1995 and earned seven Scotland caps, while his playing career was followed by a move into coaching. He became part of Everton’s first-team coaching staff and twice took caretaker charge of the club before later managing Forest Green Rovers and Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
