Soccer wizard to Woo Tigers fans!

'Mr Woo' is widely acknowledged as the world's greatest football entertainer with skills that Ronaldo and Ronaldinho would envy.

He also holds the world record for bouncing the ball on his head for five hours, six minutes and 30 seconds.

He can juggle the ball with his head, shoulder, chest, knees and feet and has appeared at Premiership grounds around the country performing his skills.

He will appear at Owlerton during the interval of the clash with the Brummies - and on the same night the Elite League Riders' Championship will be shown live on the screens at the stadium.

"I've actually had a look at what the guy can do on the internet," said Tigers owner Neil Machin. "He took my breath away with his skills and I know he's appeared on TV commercials including one alongside Ronaldinho, the Barcelona player who is one of the best players in the world.

"We're making an extra effort to make the whole package attractive to supporters and, apart from the meeting with Birmingham, I reckon Mr Woo will be worth the admission money alone!

"He will perform during the interval. Anybody who has seen the guy will want to come and see him again, those who haven't will be amazed.

"The Elite League Riders' Championship will also be on the screens throughout the stadium and I fully expect Birmingham to come and put on a good show. They are a team very much in form right now and we will need to be on our best form.

"All in all, I reckon we have put together a fantastic package of entertainment and I would expect the fans to turn out in force, it could be one of the highlights of the season."

Tigers take on King's Lynn tonight in what promises to be a keen contest with the team that stood between Tigers and glory last season.

TIGERS: Ricky Ashworth, Ben Wilson, Andre Compton, James Birkinshaw, Joel Parsons, Paul Cooper, James Cockle.

n KING'S LYNN: Tomas Topinka, Chris Mills, Daniel Nermark, Paul Lee, Trevor Harding, James Brundle, Benji Compton.
