March 27, 201313 yr First testimonial I remember was for Peter Thompson in 78 and he wasn't at Bolton for ten years. Stuart Hall scored in that game. Ahem.
March 27, 201313 yr Maybe he had it written into his contract - seeing as players back them weren't on 'Kevin Davies' money.

March 27, 201313 yr I know I'm getting on & forgetful, but wasn't that his Liverpool testimonial, granted to him by Liverpool & played whilst he was with us? You might be right, I was very young at the time. I thought it was Bolton v a combined Liverpool & Everton XI.

March 27, 201313 yr You might be right, I was very young at the time. I thought it was Bolton v a combined Liverpool & Everton XI. Remember (I think) us showing off our Championship trophy and them doing the rounds with theirs. Also vaguely remember Jim McDonagh taking at least 2 penalties. Presumably around 50,000 on, as it always was, but it seemed nearer 20-25k.
March 28, 201313 yr Didn't same happen to Per Frandsen or did i imagine that. He left club and didn't get a new contract. Fans only found out after he left the club so couldn't give him a send off last game of season.
March 28, 201313 yr The fact that you can't remember says everything about the current furore. If Davies leaves and someone comes in and scores goals, this will be brushed under the carpet in no time. That's modern football for you. All about results, nothing about the people.

March 28, 201313 yr Aye, you imagined that. He went late September/early October. I think he meant in second spell at the club.
March 28, 201313 yr Looking at getting a flag sorted for both Gardner and SKD in time for the Blackpool game. Something like: "who put the ball in the Munich net?" and/or "thank you for the memories" Something from the fans, they have both been important in our recent history and deserve some ackowledgement from us. Davies did against them at the Reebok but I can't remember Gardner scoring against them..?
March 28, 201313 yr my favourite testimonial moment was Jimmy Phillips getting hauled off at half time in his own testimonial
