His footballing ability was on a par with his golf buggy driving.
Got very well paid for what he did.
A very limited player who gave 100 % millionaires should not be getting testimonials though.
The money should be given to a local charity Ty Olsen would be my charity. |
Very harsh way to talk about Tatey there.
I admire overachieving players more than underachieving ones.
Do you know what his arrangements are for his testimonial income, before you completely hang him out to dry? [Post edited 6 Jul 2017 18:05]

To Phil or whoever is organising this, I'll ask again, what charities are benefiting from this and what % of the proceeds are being donated to the chosen charities? |  |

For me as I have said- it isn't about Tatey it's about rewarding the rich.
This community made them, this testimonial should see all the cash returned to the community.
Too many people treat these players like gods, they are not they are equal in every way, the only difference is they are able to loan our clubs shirt and be handsomely paid enough money to be made for life. |  |

To Phil ... how do I purchase tickets for this ? I see nothing on the official site
I'd like to know if Tatey is keeping all the money to p1ss up against the wall in Wind st. He deserves it for all the pleasure he gave fans (who turned up) over many years.

You'll ask again ? Ooh, get you. Come on Phil he's asked again. You HAVE to tell him now, he's asked twice. Please don't make him have to ask a third time. Even though he's not going it is imperative that this very important person knows because, well, you know, it's important that he knows.
And then he can feel important, even though it's got nothing to do with him. |  |

Do you not think it is something that should have been publicised along with the announcement of the event? | |

Personally I couldn't give a rats arse if Tatey is keeping the money, it's going to charity or if it's all going to be piled in a big bonfire and burned. I'll be there to show my appreciation for a player who played a significant part initially in our survival in League 2 and then our subsequent rise through the divisions. |  | | |

I liked him bit of a cult figure loved the song as well.
He tried his best but let's be honest he had his limitations.
I am with Loyal players get paid well for what they do.
Not in favour of top ups for millionaires just my view. |  |

No, as I'm not going myself. If I were and it was advertised that the money was going to charity then yes, I would like to know but I don't believe in testimonials, it's just a job after all. Why would I pay towards someone having the luxury of not having to worry about being in work at 6am when I have to myself ? | |

Times have changed, as has justification of testimonials, possibly.
Maybe clubs should be recognising loyalty of supporters, more than players, these days. |  |

Well testimonials these days are always for the benefit of local charities or ones the player in question is closely associated with. That is what I have always thought anyway.
If this is solely to raise money for Alan, when he already has earned colossal amounts from this club and its fans, then it will disappoint me. | |

You could win the lottery and still be disappointed. Why this bothers you is a mystery seeing as you don't even go to any games |  | | |

Had this from Tatey the other day - for clarity for those that need it I am not part of the organising committee just helping promote something I think is very worthwhile for someone who I have found over the many years I have known him to be one of the most genuine people you could meet. There have been many times when I wish we really could have had a team of Alan Tates
"Tickets are on sale Monday at 10am. As for what the game brings in in terms of money I will be sitting down with 2 councils, Swansea council because Swansea is the area that gave me so much as an adult and East Durham council because I want to help put back into Murton where I am from"
I still personally hope people support this game to the absolute max | | | |

I would always expect some charitable donations, but the question was how much Phil, appreciate you don't have the answers. | |

Not really I got your point.
The golf buggy quip was meant to be a light hearted comment.
He was a good servant to the club not sure what you want me to say but there you go. | |
