GOAT 30,449 Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 I’ve seen most say it must be ten years of service but I’ve been reading about it this morning and seen a few who got some with less years of service, Alan McLaren for example, but I’m guessing he got his due to early retirement because of injury. should Wallace and mcculloch have had a testimonial? Allan McGregor must be due one surely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Were testimonials not a wee retirement fund for when footballers weren't as wealthy as now? Fuck giving guys on 10 or 20k a week that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee presentation in front of fans before a game at 10 years service, round of applause and a song or two and we all keep giving to charities whatever we want to as normal. Job's a good 'un.

gmcf 34,152 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I remember being at John Greig's . A sell out which I'm sure was a world record at the time , might even still be . Quite an achievement when you think of some of the players at that time . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
