Blues fan Matthew Moore took part in 2016 and told Football Aid about his experience after the game:

“That’s was one of the best experiences of my life, thanks a lot! When you`re growing up watching your team on that pitch to get to play on it and score a half hour hat trick at the Tilton End really did mean a lot! Was amazing! Hopefully I will able to do it again soon!”
