      Good work from the club.
      I hope we see a Stand named after him too.

        Got to "purchase tickets" and that was it, just a pic of Whitts :shrug:
        Could it be that the link doesn't work?

          It's a ballache- for some reason they aren't on sale on the usual ticketing website, so you have to sign up again, but you also have to assign each ticket you buy to an individual email address, which they also have to have on their new system- so basically, anyone you want to buy tickets for has to sign up on the Stadium Events webpage before you can buy their tickets. Pain in the arse.

              Is it?

              Seems quite lazy to me. A glorified friendly in the winter break, on a Tuesday night in the cold and rain.

              It should’ve been a celebration with former teammates and old players having a game that would’ve attracted a decent crowd, I think the attendance for this will be quite disappointing.

                I’ll buy a ticket but it’s a pity that a lot of us will be away for the World Cup. Something similar happened with McNaughton’s testimonial, we were on or way back from a Wales away game and missed that. Hard for the club to fit fixtures in though, pre season would have suited me.

                  Zero thought from the club, but that doesn’t surprise me.

                  Basically a fitness exercise football match for two teams Whitts played for, to keep the current players of those teams ticking over whilst the World Cup is on.

                  This was an opportunity to get the band back together - Bothroyd, Chopra, Super Kev, etc etc to remember Whitts but instead his name is just being used to push a fitness friendly. Absolute joke from the club.

                    You can enter the same email address for all the tickets.
                    You then receive an email with links to download the tickets to your Google Wallet or Apple Pay.
                    Download the first ticket yourself then forward the email to the other people you bought tickets for, telling each person which ticket to download.

                    I hope Tony Tit, bluetit isn't reading this, he'll have a fit.

                      Yeah Ireland away in 2017. Same again here. I’ll probably not buy a ticket and just donate to the foundation. On a dark, wet, cold, Tuesday night in November I’ll be surprised if we sell 10k unfortunately

                          They might get some old teammates involved in some way perhaps.

                          Must be a nightmare trying to get anything arranged in this season with the world cup

                            Not so much a fit, more a genuine disappointment, if this is the only way you can buy them.

                            It will eliminate a lot of people straight away
