Okay, distance, holidays etc I understand but the "It’s only a friendly" mantra shouldn't really apply here. It's about recognising ten years' service from a model pro who has always given his all for the club, fought his way back from three serious injuries. He's a nice guy too.

angieram Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Just have a thought for Fozzy's committee - they are going to be very disheartened if more tickets aren't sold prior to the day of the event. It doesn't help with stewarding or refreshments either. Don't moan when the queues are horrendous because there's only one kiosk open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not ideal, but the idea to have a pre-season game against Stoke as the testimonial was simply a very bad idea. It’s usually a game where old favourites get a run out again, etc, so I’m not surprised by the lack of interest and neither should the club or Foz. Not one he should take to heart. Stoke at home is one of the most uninspiring fixtures the club could’ve picked too. I can’t go, but not sure I would even if I could.

Surely they could even have pulled in enough old Derby players from around the County if there was an 'emergency' that upset the planning? I just don't see that a game against Stoke with nothing in the way of celebration of Fozzy's past team-mates is any kind of draw.

A current team versus a blast of the past players even if held towards the end of the season would be more appropriate and something I would support. The reality is - 95% of fans probably don't even realise ticket sales are going to his fund, not to the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 The difference with organising a fixture against old players is it doesn't fit into the Club's ideas of fitness and preparation for a new season. Would have to be done at the other end of the season when players are jaded and often unavailable as they're rushing off to Dubai, Dundee or Cleethorpes, depending on who is making the arrangements!

All I hear from fans is excuses, when really, they could put themselves out for one 90 minutes for a player that's served the Club for ten years.

EnigmaRam Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I will be going, haven't got my ticket yet though. I’d much rather watch a team play against the likes of Darren Bent and Adam Bolder etc and not Stoke. Will Hughes Hair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not it's no different from a training exercise? They won't be spending every day of pre-season playing competitive matches? None of the fans would really be expecting much more than a mildly competitive kick around. Will Hughes Hair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
