Boxer Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton will be making a guest appearance at a sportsman's dinner for Crossflatts Football Club.

The club's third annual dinner will be held at the Hilton Hotel in Bradford on Friday, March 28.

All of the tickets for the event have been sold out and the venue will be at full capacity with 480 people attending.

Club secretary Lee Bailey said: "This is quite an amazing event for a Sunday morning football club. Once again Manorlands will be our chosen charity, where we will be hoping to beat lasts year's great total.

Last year Crossflatts had a 380 person sell out event with former footballer Neil "Razor" Ruddock as the guest speaker. Apart from raising funds for the club, a total of £1,511 was raised for the Manorlands Hospice in Oxenhope.

However Bailey said they wouldn't have been able to bring in Hatton as speaker had it not been for some generous support.

"The event wouldn't have been able to take place if it hadn't have been for the joint sponsorship by Keighley firm Link Telecom and Direct Building Products."

Comedian Jimmy Bright will also perform on the night, and there will be a four-course meal and auction with Grade-A memoriabilia.
