U's fans turn out for loyal Kem
3:11pm Saturday 12th May 2012 in Sport By Jonathan Waldron
Big day - U's supporters took to the stands for Kem Izzet's testimonial this afternoon.
Colchester United supporters turned out in force for Kem Izzet's testimonial this afternoon.
More than 60 U's stars past and present including Roy McDonough, Teddy Sheringham and Greg Halford took to the field, in support of loyal Izzet.
The Boys of 92 team lost 2-1 to the Men of 98 side, while Parky's celebrity XI beat John Ward's current U's side, 4-2.
A crowd of 2,028 were in attendance for Izzet's big day.
The only downside was the injury suffered by Mike Masters in the first game.
Masters was stretchered off and eventually taken to hospital after suffering a ruptured tendon.
