Good luck to the Beast,still can't believe he was never given a testimonial at the Turf.

Good luck, Beast. Maddeningly inconsistent, but when he was good, he was very, very good.

Isn't it down to the player, or some committee, to organise it and not the club?

He was. The club granted it but they are not permitted to get involved with it. That’s up to him and his testimonial committee.

Didn't Brian Jensen have a bit of bother with a testimonial or something?

Not seen it mentioned before

All the best Brian.

Always seemed a pleasant bloke, and despite the “WALLY!” Moments both on and off the pitch was a good servant to the club.

So he more or less didn't bother,wow he must have turned his back on a fair amount of money then?

He had a committee to run the testimonial year and they didn't come up with a game for him. The club cannot be involved otherwise there are tax issues for him.

His 'eye for detail' meant he sometimes forgot where the penalty area was (Luton).

What happened to this job:

Presumably temporary.

Funny, mention Jensen and we get 'testimonial' and the same conversation again!

Did his committee organise any events or did he just walk away from the club,sounds a bit like he couldn't be arsed to me.
