Optimistic Nut Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 http://www.equipe.fr/Football/breves2007/20070817_104050Dev.html Strange the only place I've seen this is in the French press. Solano has been in contact with McClaren about arranging a Peru-England friendly with all the proceeds going to those who've lost people in the Peru earthquake.

Guest WalkervilleMag Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 none of the english players would be up for it, unless they were getting some money for themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 none of the english players would be up for it, unless they were getting some money for themselves. Didn't the England squad announce a few months ago that they're giving their match-fees to charity anyway? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 If they'd had the sense to have an earthquake a couple of months ago, we could've done it in pre-season. More seriously, I've always fancied a Toon versus Peru/South America XI as a testimonial for Nobby, this could be it unofficially, with a greater cause benefiting.

Could also get in some people who've played with Nobby in the past involved as well (E.g. Robert, Big Al etc.) and SJP would be a big enough venue to stage something like this.

80 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 lets see if Nobby is around long enough for a testimonial first He won't be - even if he doesn't leave 'till next Summer, his time in exile would rule him out. This would a gesture of appreciation, an unofficial testimonial and a charitable act towards his countrymen back home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ridzuan Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Great idea by Nobby,it was a really strong earthquake and I think this is the least Nobby can do to help the victims.Hopefully he will get it though I think he might be very difficult.

Thespence Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 In the short term Nobby could contact via what ever means all the players listed on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peru_national_football_team#Current_Squad who play abroad & they could all donate 1 weeks salary or more to the cause. That Scots fellow who joined Sunderland gave his signing on fee to Aberdeen, if Nobby gets a move I hope he is willing to donate his to the cause. Nobby could also contact Claudio Pizarro & see if he willing to donate his Chelsea signing on fee & his former drinking buddies Bellamy & Dyer if they want to donate there West Ham fee's.
