Familiar faces from Coronation Street and Brookside are also expected to take part.

Players from Sunderland, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and Darlington will be signing autographs.

All money raised from the game (and the children's entertainment/car boot sales/raffles/tombolas/amusements/etc) will be donated to the Stroke and Dysphasic Support Fund.

Events start at 12:30pm, with the match kicking off at 4pm.
