ANNUAL SPORTING DINNER WITH JAN MOLBY

Written on

8th October 2024 by Burton Albion

LIVERPOOL Football Club legend Jan Molby will now be the special guest for our annual Sporting Dinner in November, replacing John Beresford MBE.

The event will place on Thursday 28th November at Pirelli Stadium with a 7pm arrival time. Tickets cost just £55 per person, inclusive of VAT, which also includes a delicious four-course meal.

Joining Jan on stage will be the charming and sharp-witted comedian Josh Daniels. Known for his ability to guarantee laughs from the moment he walks on stage, Daniels is sure to add an extra layer of entertainment to the evening.

Molby, commonly known to as Big Jan or the Great Dane, is widely regarded as one of the most talented players in Liverpool history.

Known for his vision, immense skill, sublime passing and shooting ability, the Denmark international had honed his trade at Ajax in Amsterdam for two and a half years prior to joining the European champions.

Molby was undoubtedly Liverpool’s best player in the double 1985/86 season as Kenny Dalglish had great belief in him. Molby enjoyed his freedom under Dalglish, playing sweeper on occasion as well as shadow striker behind Ian Rush.

While on Merseyside, Jan scored a total of 62 goals in 282 appearances, 42 of which were from penalties, and was capped for his country 33 times, scoring twice.

After leaving Liverpool he became player-manager of Swansea City, where he spent two years, and then managed Kidderminster Harriers, guiding them to promotion to the Football League in 2000. He later had a brief spell as manager of Hull City and then a brief spell back in charge of Kidderminster Harriers.

It promises to be an evening not to miss – Book now via the attached booking form HERE. Alternatively, please email events@burtonalbionfc.co.uk or call 01283 565938 for further information.
