    Wait, he had scored for us before that goal had he not?
    Yeah he had. They’ve copied it clumsily but his first career goal was at Hibs - I think it was the one against Rangers in the 4-0 at Christmas time.

    Nice one Monty for accepting the invitation from SDG to put on the Hibs shirt Sunday.

    Glad to see the previous posts with people picking up tickets.

    Not got a ticket yet but I’ll be going.

    Hopefully people make the effort to go along. If you can’t make it and can afford it you could still buy a ticket in support.

    Crap. Really, really hope there are a lot of folk just planning on buying on the day so that it ends up respectable.

    I get that testimonials divide attention and some folk wouldn't dream of attending a run of the mill one, but I can't get on board at all questioning whether he deserves one.

    It wasn't just the goal, his last ten minutes were near superhuman. If you want to make it about more than just that day, he's stepped in as manager to hold it together through countless shambles, captained us, scored several key goals...

    We're also nitpicking over one year, as summer 2024 will mark ten years at the club. He retired without a proper send off as well, and never got one last ovation.

    Folk probably right say the cup final has been and gone, but this marks a good last chance to draw a line under the whole thing bar the future 10/25 year anniversaries and what not. Any Hibs legend deserves a testimonial, and I really can't see why David Gray of all people would be begrudged one.

    Hibs fans just don't support these sort of kick-abouts in the way some other club's fans do, it must be very disheartening to those organising & participating. Somebody so significant in the club's history should be honoured with a packed stadium, but it was never happening.

    I would say about 4000 including hospitality which is sold out. Hopefully get about 6-7000 as a nice day and the tickets are cheap

    We’re taking the wee ones today - we will have a backpack with us with water bottles and snacks, I’m guessing they’re not going to take anything off us?

    Agree to a point but I don’t think the lack of a packed stadium is just down to fans, it’s the organisation as well which has been pretty crap IMO. Timing is poor with it being during holidays and the game itself holds little appeal. For all it’s only a tenner for a ticket it’s the same week as tickets for Hampden and a home game against Celtic went on sale. It’s not been pushed much either, there will be people out there not even realising it’s on. I’d still have expected/hoped there would have been more and I think it’s really disappointing with who it’s for that it’s looking like a poor attendance.

    If this was the Hibs first team against an official Manchesrer United Team then we would have been looking at over 10000. It still wouldn’t have sold out. If we have 5000 or more there today that’s actually pretty decent.
    I am really looking forward to it. I’m not expecting to see anything close to a serious game but being able to see some of the cup final team playing again makes the journey more than worth while.

    I can't think of many Hearts/Aberdeen comparisons, which I guess is the only ones that we can be judged against.

    Rangers and Celtic tend to fall over themselves to attend legends game or anything remotely linked to either club, but they're mental.

    Couldn’t think of a better way of showing my appreciation to the man who scored the most important goal in our clubs history than going along to his testimonial game at our hallowed ground in the sunshine to have a good day out and re live that glorious day.

    I really hope the weather at least encourages a higher attendance and there are more than just 4 - 5,000 today.
