Pelosi Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Just heard that Dave Mackay has been awarded a testimonial for his services to Saints. Well deserved and nice to see his time with Saints being marked in this way. Oldmuirton, 541ntees, Melbourne Saint and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edstar101 Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Jody Morris recently named Dave as the most under-rated player he had played with Any chance of a Chelsea team coming up?? jhq and Dave Ferg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ferg Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Jody could bring an "all stars" team up with Doobs, Lampard etc! Jimmy Wallace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ScottMann Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 A Dave XI v a Jody XI would be a great idea! There could be a few names that would bring non-Saints fans in. Don't think a repeat of the Final would be too attractive to Dundee United fans. Stirling Albion wouldn't be great for obvious reasons so how about a game against Dave's first club...Dundee, who are of course the other club he got to a Cup Final with, but lost!

sleepless Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Is it not a bit unusual to have a testimonial after a player has left? Not that I'm complaining, he's highly deserving of it and I hope it's a big success. The Cup Final means he's our greatest ever captain, in my opinion.

I take it it's because he had to give the game up through injury. He was with us for 7 years and it's normally 10 for a testimonial so, no matter his achievements, I can only think of the injury reason and that would probably often mean a player is no longer with the club concerned.

Abernethy Saint Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 I take it it's because he had to give the game up through injury. He was with us for 7 years and it's normally 10 for a testimonial so, no matter his achievements, I can only think of the injury reason and that would probably often mean a player is no longer with the club concerned. The ten year thing is I think an HMRC thing to stop clubs giving out testimonials willy nilly to avoid tax. My guess is the short delay has been them squaring it away with the tax guys. Doesn't really matter, really. A Saints legend and a real gent to boot - he was very graceful on social media to folk wishing him well when he retired. sleepless 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
