Micky Chapman (right) says there is no chance of him appearing in the dugout tomorrow when Lowestoft Town, external face Norwich City in a testimonial match for the former player and manager.
This fixture was called off a year ago because of heavy rain, but has been rearranged for a 15:00 kick-off, with tickets available on the gate.
Ady Gallagher's side go into the match off the back of a 3-0 win over Waveney FC at the Amber Dew Events Stadium earlier in the week.
"While it's my testimonial, it's also an important pre-season match for both teams, and I certainly won't be getting in the way of Ady and his assistant Dale Brooks," Chapman told us.
The club legend's most memorable moment in the Lowestoft dugout came in 2014, when the Suffolk side won promotion to the National League North.
However, having made close to 500 appearances as a player for the club, Chapman admits it is hard to think of one particular standout for him on the field.
"I used to get butterfiles every time I played for Lowestoft, from a young lad right up until the day I stopped playing," he told us.
"Every moment was special, and it was an absolute privilege to be at the club as both a player and a manager."

The MP for Lowestoft says the number of fishing boats using the port could more than double after Brexit - currently only about a dozen inshore vessels use the harbour, which had moorings for 1,000 boats in the 19th Century.
Waveney MP Peter Aldous says the government's new fishing bill will revive the local fishing industry and he predicts that trawlers will return to the port.
"Lowestoft stands out as the capital of the southern North Sea and that's probably a crown we've lost over the last 30 or 40 years. We've got to regain that crown," he said.
Mr Aldous, Conservative, also hopes that in the future the port will be more integrated with the town centre "and not locked away behind a busy road and fences".
He's been outlining his vision of the town's future to the Sunday Politics programme.
You can hear more of his thoughts on Sunday at 11:00 on BBC1.

The actions of a former charity treasurer who conned a disabled people's support organisation out of £200,000 were given "little thought".
As we've been reporting, Neil Payne has been jailed for four and a half years for fraud by abuse of position.
He had been a volunteer treasurer at DIAL Lowestoft and Waveney, external.
The 51-year-old, formerly of Rushton Drive in Carlton Colville, made 270 transactions between the charity's bank accounts and his own personal account.
Margaret Oldham, from the charity, said: "I thought Neil was a trusted friend and colleague of 15 years and his actions have seriously affected my faith in human nature.”
Det Con Andrew Thawley, officer on the case, added: "He appears to have given little thought to the effect this would have on not only those working for the charity but also their clients – often some of the most vulnerable in society, who rely on DIAL for support and advice.
"Margaret and the team at DIAL have, by contrast, shown their strength of character by battling to keep the charity going.
"We hope that today’s sentencing will help them continue to move forward – and that residents in Lowestoft and Waveney will rally round to support them and help them carry on the good work they do.”
A charity for disabled people which was conned out of more than £200,000 has said it has been "living a nightmare".
As we've reported, Neil Payne defrauded DIAL Lowestoft and Waveney, external out of the money over a six-year period.
The 51-year-old, who had been the charity's treasurer, has been jailed for four and a half years.
The charity has said it faces a "uncertain future" and needs funding to continue.
Margaret Oldham from the charity said: "We have all been living a nightmare, and this has not gone away completely yet.
"Without individual trustees loaning money out of their personal accounts to pay salaries for January and February 2017 he would have ‘killed’ a charity which is vital to hundreds of people with disabilities and which has been in existence for 30 years."
Payne admitted fraud by abuse of position.
