    Not so sure the 1902 side would be able to raise a team.

    😂 😂

    On a serious note,the 2007 team versus the 2016 would be interesting.

    Now you're talking. That would pretty much ensure a sell out imo.

    Would be amazing. Think the idea was floated over the summer - I don't think anything went officially to the club though.

    We could invite Joe Tortolano and Gordon Strachan for a rematch.

    One half for the 2007 team and one half for the 2016 team. 😉

    The club can't organise a testimonial or any money made is taxable. That's why there's a committee although obviously tuhe club will help facilitate what they do.

    Fair enough! Had never heard of that but makes sense.

    In which case, I'm not sure if the idea ever went to the committee or if it was just talked about on .net

    While Gordon was bouncing off the wall, Joe was saying he got there as soon as he could. One of the oddest things I have seen, but there was no need for a red card.
    Who was the ref that night?

    You're joking right ? He completely halfed him.

    Perhaps not mate ...... but how many folk can say they have seen a red card in a testimonial match, if you were there that night you were witness to one of footballs more unique events

    As for Lewis testimonial .... the 2016 team v the 2007 team would be a great idea, but getting all the players together would probably be a bit difficult and some like Hogg and Boozy have retired, though I dare say they can still kick a ball ... does anybody even know where Benji is these days?

    If we cant do that I would certainly like to see the testimonial committee come up with as big a name as possible ... we managed Man Utd for Gordon Rae, something similar would be appropriate for Lewis, its the least he deserves.

    That is correct -I have been on a testimonial Committee almost 25 years ago and that was the case then.

    There are other restrictions, which if breached, means income tax my be due.

    I was speaking to Joe yesterday and he was telling me that he will be at ER on Saturday as part of the Skol cup winning squad (he was injured so couldnt make the final squad) to display the cup at half time.
    I know he is still pretty embarrassed about that testemonial with Strachan, but he is a great Hibs man and I hope him and the rest of that squad have a great day on Saturday. It was my first time seeing Hibs win anything so it brings back great memories.

    Thommo can rest easy. If anyone is 2-0 down at half time I know who they might look to.

    They "looked to him" at 0-0 at tynie I'm sure it was but I do get you're point... he was outstanding when he did come on and also in the replay. Always be a hibs legend now.
