Name The Players

8th August 2009 Jussis Testimonial against Hibs at the Reebok . 

Going off the programme 35 players on each side . Of the hibs squad I knew of 4 !!  No guest stars .

I remember it being one of the least fun testimonials of all time. Didn't we treat it like a proper game and hardly had any guest stars?!

Remember the Hibs fans coming into ESL at full time

Did we play them at home again in a PSF years later or is it really 17 years since they kicked off under the east lower?

2. Steinsson

Did they have Boyd or Griffiths in their side? 

In one heart stopping moment Fabrice Muamba made an appearance.

Can't remember anything about the day except Lofty was doing his rounds with his assistant and someone said "I wonder how much they get paid" "I don't know but I bet he gets the lion's share" I replied. I swear everyone in a ten seat radius groaned. One of my proudest moments.

Fucking hell my memory is shot. I left England in 2004 so it can't have been this, maybe I'm thinking of the Jimmy Phillips testimonial against Celtic.

Honestly Riordan should have been an absolute worldie but was too much of an idiot off the pitch
