| Quote: tvoc "So let's hope the higher profiled player's testimonial doesn't detract from a real clubman's reward for 10 years (in the main comparatively low paid) loyalty.
Having (I presume) two testimonials running at the same club at the same time is a bit barking.
Peacock played 29 times V Leeds and that's 29 times more than JJB has.'"
I know what yer saying mate but surely you agree JP deserves the recognition of a testamonial.

Call me old fashioned but historically players giving 10 years loyalty to one club have deserved a Testimonial season.
Peacock is effectively getting a Leeds Testimonial on the back of 3 seasons. I say Leeds as it will be supported by his current team's supporters in far greater numbers than any other club's.
Basically I don't agree with a club running two Testimonials simultaneously unless (as in the case of Phil Cookson and Steve Pitchford) it's an joint testimonial.
Not my problem though so I'll shut up.

| i wonder if they are awarding these type of testimonials as way of getting a bit extra and nothing to do with the salary cap also to keep them from going to the dark side for awhile.

Peacock will have done well because of the salary he could command he was a free agent and several clubs were jockeying for his signature.
A player like JJB who has remained at 1 club will never benefit from that market force and that is what a testemonial should be for.

You know what is really interesting? We had a massive thread with many of our own fans recently questioning JJB's entitlement to a testimonial.
None of those protagonists have come on here to question Peacock's entitlement to one.
Whino fekkwittism at its' most obvious.

| yes you have got a good point .
jjb ,ok his appearances have been liminited for 10 years service ,but he still deserves his testimonial year by the way he has kept going and not giving up and then becoming the valuable senior team member he is today.
a great inspiration to any aspiring youngster

Think it looks a cheap mix of a market style England shirt that seen on many of chavs during the football world cup with a mix of the past GB sleeves on.
And the JP10 logo looks naff.
Not my cup of tea, much preferred JJBs shirt and the link with his amateur club
