Jon Wilkin - Celebration Year? : Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:28 am
I noticed that Jon Wilkin was having a "Celebration Year".
http://www.jonwilkin.co.uk/aims Never heard of one of these before. Is it like a Testimonial year when your club won't grant you an official testimonial year because one of your colleagues is already having one? Seems strange that Wilkin states "I have been very lucky that a testimonial committee has formed" when its not a testimonial. I'd also imagine that if another player was having a testimonial they wouldn't be too happy about potential rivals to getting punters to part with their cash; could even lead to a rift in the camp. Mind you if a player was turned down for a testimonial when they already had a committee and plans in place I bet they'd be pretty pee'd with the club and possibly look at emigrating if one of their mates was doing so. |
