MC Harvey to host charity game at Dartford's Princes Park between Team Harvey XI and Charlton Athletic Legends

One of Dartford manager Steve King's former charges brings his star-studded celebrity team to Princes Park next week.

MC Harvey - best known for his musical exploits with So Solid Crew - won two promotions under King at Lewes.

He'll take to the field again on Sunday, April 24 when a Team Harvey XI face a Charlton Legends side at Princes Park, kick-off 3pm.

The game will raise money for Dom's Food Mission, a charity which helps feed less fortunate people and aims to stop food waste within the community.

Charlton manager Johnnie Jackson and coach Jason Euell will feature for the Addicks side, along with Kevin Lisbie, Carl Leaburn, Anthony Barness and former Darts forward Chris Dickson.

Team Harvey will include the likes of Jamie O'Hara, Jay Bothroyd, Clinton Morrison, Marlon Harewood and Greg Halford.

"When I played for Kingy at Lewes we got promoted to Conference South and when we went up again that's when I had to leave," recalled Harvey.

"He was one of the best managers I've played for, along with Dave Anderson at AFC Wimbledon.

"Kingy is good with team spirit and his passion. I love it because he takes it to heart when he loses, he cares about the game. I've had great days with him, he is like my brother.

"I went to the Dorking away game earlier this season because their manager Marc White is a friend of mine as well, so I had to be a neutral that day! I'll try and get to the Maidstone game this weekend if I can.

"I'm always winding Kingy up but I'm not sure he'll answer the phone this week to me because they drew at the weekend and I'll give him stick for that!

"Seriously, though, he is a top man and I just want him to go up. It looks like that will be via the play-offs but he has been there so has that experience."
