Obviously something that has spawned a debate so what does the great and the good of NSC think should he have a game?
And should it be sooner, ie before the end of October, rather than later?

I say no, yes he's been a great servant to the club ............but he's walked straight into another job with the club which I gather he will be paid for !
If I injured myself and I could no longer do my job I really don't think I'd get a golden handshake

No Harty. He has been treated well by the club. I think you are embarassing Charlie by this suggestion. He knows how well the club has treated him. As for arranging one in the next few weeks as you suggested I doubt very much if that could be done given teams commitments.

Sorry Harty.

Personally my view is no and I am also not to sure why we should be voting on this as the club should decide.

Also, bar the phone in, this would probably not have been raised so therefore debatable how big the debate is on this.

No.

Footballers are well paid compared to the average fan. Yes, it's a short career but they can re-train for other occupations.

As for Charlie, as others have said he has been re-employed by the club and therefore earning a wage.

Unless testimonial money goes to a charitable cause then I am totally against them.

So Harty what about, Simon Rodger , Dean Blackwell, Ben Roberts, or even Paul Kitson

He's still got a job at the club!!! No - not only would organising it make it a shambles, but it makes finding opponents for Hart's testimonial harder to find. Let's face it, we're not made of contracts!
