David Silva Testimonial

HolisticJim said:
I went to the Kompany testamonial. It was my first and only testimonial match and it was the most boring thing ever.

I love David Silva - got a huge framed picture of him on my front room wall - but I've got very little interest in going to this. Not that he shouldn't have one, give the man anything he wants - but dear lord the last one was boring as fuck.

Many years back I went to a testimonial for a Barrow player called Colin Cowperthwaite. It was against City in Peter Reid’s early days. It was a bloody awful evening and I think we were lucky to get a 2-2 draw.
From a financial point of view testimonials are good for the ones getting the money, but bloody awful spectacles usually.
Having said that; seeing David Silva and Sergio at the ground one last time would be very special.
 
any testimonial game should never be looked at as a meaningful game of football ? but just a celebration of a players loyalty to the club and fans. if the match was a meaningful event clubs/managers would never release players to play in them.

i would rather have a big showcase ? maybe music gig and show big video highlights on the big screens the player himself given like a (this is your life) sort of thing
