Is Robbie Keane retired now?I think it would be a fitting thing to do. The guy has given his all for us over the 10 years (must admit I didn't realise it was that long) when he's wore the Sky Blue shirt
Not sure who it should be against. Maybe some of the best players he's played with/against over the years? Love to see Robbie Keane involved
Or Robert Page!!!!Can we get him to play alongside Stephen Hughes in a reborn axis of evil.
I think the correct phrasing is 'We need to give Michael Doyle a testimonial, or else'!This cropped up at the Leamington Supporters Club last night.
Michael Doyle has been at The Sky Blues for 10 years (over 2 spells) which is unusual these days for any player.
Should the club grant him a testimonial as a show of appreciation?
If so who should the testimonial game be against?
I would like to see a Republic or Ireland XI including Robbie Keane!
I think it would be well supported by Coventry City Fans as most get the fact that he is dedicated to the Sky Blues.
That's a good call - we would be swamped with green hoops all over the place!to me its got to be against Celtic (i'm sure that's who we got him from in the 1st place)
We had a testimonial against Celtic some years back - at the Ricoh I think. I cant remember who it was for, but was lots of Celtic supporters and a full ground. I thought perhaps Richard Shaw but I cant think what connection he had with Celtic unless it was a Strachan thing and he brought a team down.

Probably mostly local too as they have fans all over, no doubt lots of Celtic in Cov so just getting them through turnstiles again, you never know as a good fun occasion with two good teams might have some thinking "yeah I'd like some more of this" and come back for league games.I think the connection was Strachan was in charge of Celtic at the time. I remember that - about 5000-6000 Celtic fans there for a testimonial!

Need Keano out of retirement - that's a battle Id like to see Doyler in, but perhaps not until he's retired. I'm looking forward to him playing against Lee Cattermole next week too.The way the Republic are playing I think we would beat them!
Yeah, think Dion or Telfer May have been part of that Celtic team aswell.I think the connection was Strachan was in charge of Celtic at the time. I remember that - about 5000-6000 Celtic fans there for a testimonial!
Was at that too. V funny talking to some miserable Hoops fans after the game - having beaten them soundly they were claiming they'd fielded a reserve team. It was far from it.I think the connection was Strachan was in charge of Celtic at the time. I remember that - about 5000-6000 Celtic fans there for a testimonial!

5000 paying £10 each is still a nice pay day.People love Doyle, but we can't get 10,000 for a league game. It would be unfair on him when only 5000 turn up.

Depends how much it costs to put the event on.It is really as all costs would be borne by the player

Definitely. Rare occurrence these days.
Should be a team of Doyle style players managed by Nick vs a team of flair players. I’d pay to see that.
Does depend on who we play.People love Doyle, but we can't get 10,000 for a league game. It would be unfair on him when only 5000 turn up.
