United fans can come along and celebrate the service of Seán Dillon at his testimonial against Hearts on Tuesday 21 March (7.45pm).
Several ex-teammates of Seán are expected to appear in the game including Christian Kalvenes, Lee Wilkie, Garry Kenneth, Keith Watson, Craig Conway, Scott Robertson, Danny Swanson, Noel Hunt and Jon Daly.
Scottish Cup winning manager Peter Houston will take charge of the United team for the second half of the fixture and Craig Levein, Seán's first manager at the Club, will manage the Hearts team during their second half.
Club legends Dave Bowman (United) and John Robertson (Hearts) are also expected to make an appearance during the game.

Seán Dillon Testimonial Committee Vice-Chairman Gordon Deuchars said: “The night promises to be a great occasion and the hope is that the fans will turn out in fantastic numbers for Seán. It will be memorable to see many of the 2010 Cup winning team back and to have Peter Houston managing the team will trigger so many happy memories.
“Pricing has been set at rates that encourage families to come along and we want to make this evening all about fun alongside paying tribute to Seán’s efforts as a United player, captain and cup-winner.”
