Eddie McGoldrick

Crystal Palace icon Eddie McGoldrick is growing back his famous moustache for charity.

McGoldrick, 48, is re-creating the facial hair to help raise funds for Help For Heroes in honour of the murdered soldier Lee Rigby.

The former winger will shave it off on Armed Forces Day on June 29 at The White Horse pub where a crowd of servicemen will be gathered.

McGoldrick told us: "I'm raising money for Help For Heroes in memory of drummer Lee Rigby who was so tragically killed recently.

"Donations can be made on my page here.

"We are also holding a fundraising day at the Whitehorse pub in Selhurst on the 29th of June from 4pm where we will be shaving it off."

McGoldrick, who played 189 times for the club, now works at the CPFC Study Centre at Selhurst.
