Notts County veteran Mike Edwards admits he is "humbled" by all the attention regarding his testimonial this afternoon.
The 36-year-old, who has made 350 appearances and scored 30 goals for the club in two spells, will be the focus of attention as the Magpies take on local rivals Nottingham Forest at Meadow Lane.
Edwards said: "I don't think it's really hit home yet. I'm sure it will be a bit like a wedding. There's so much organisation that has gone into it, that the day will go as quick as a flash.
"But emotionally I don't know how I will feel when I am coming out of the tunnel.
"I never used to be one of those blokes who cried until my kids came along.
"I am really looking forward to it. In all honesty I am a little bit humbled by it all.
"But I just hope everybody enjoys it. I've got my boys and family there, some old team-mates and I'm sure it will be a great occasion.
"It's a terrific fixture to have because Nottingham is the city of football and what better way to celebrate that than this game?"
