I don't get this really.

Would you expect a great fanfare after working in a job for ten years ?

He's been extremely handsomely paid to do a job which most people can only dream of.

I will guarantee most if not all of the money raised will go to charity.
I don't get why anyone has a pop at the likes of Ossie and Hibbert, we never hear a peep out of them regarding new contracts, no game time etc, but everyone jizzes over mercenary players obviously only playing for how much they can get.
Give him some credit as a blue, he deserves it.

Looking forward to the match, getting the tickets tomorrow as my son has been pestering me for a few days. Good servant Ossie and the dollar is going to 2 charities of his choice so its a win win.

£25 on the day is even more outlandish than £20 in advance! Who the hell makes these pricing decisions? In previous pre-season friendlies three-quarters of the crowd have paid on the day. Not this time. Expect 15,000 absolute tops.

Wonder is Ossie worried about getting a game on Sunday?

Hope he gets a full house, terrific servant to the club. Hard to underestimate the value of having players like him and Hibbo around. The players coming into the club don't lick it off a stone when talking about what the club means.

Yeah all the money goes to the charities of his choice so it's not really a big deal.

Everything Everton has been boss this week, can't wait to write the preview for this game.

I still haven't got my ticket despite ordering it on the 24th July, now I'm in a telephone que and have been for 22 mins at 10p per minute, this is turning out to be rarther frustrating and an expensive testimonial ticket.

After 30 minutes I still didn't get through now I'm having to drive to the ticket office

Absolute shambles
