Re: Ten years - Testimonial ?

KP and all!!

Unfortunately to "protect" the taxation status of any sports testimonial the official club cannot be involved. The only thing a club can do is allow the ground to be used FOC, with the testimonial committee paying the bills. Normally people waive their fee/wages to help towards the cause.

I was on Wilf McGuiness's Bury testimonial committee and the club officials were given this advice then, they can help in the background, but cannot organise.

During last summer brief discussions were held by Coley and Jimmy to set things in motion. If you want to help, speak to the directly, I'm sure they'd welcome any help!!
