I trust you travelled to Wrexham to do the draw Les otherwise it may be invalid.

Still think Lee Ridley and Ashley Sestanovich should have drawn the teams out with Les as adjudicator.

Still no contact with GTFC Garner or Ponnyfan. They could both have paid me but I need them to tell me when and how they paid so that I can check back through my records.

Costa Rica posting an early claim to win the worst team prize.

Mate a bit worried you will be left out of pocket ....

Just a thought and I don't want to question your organisational skills  but why don't you ....

I know a couple of us have agreed to take on any teams unpaid for .....so allocate the teams for gtfc garner and ponnyfan to someone.... don't care myself which way round .....then if them 2 teams win fooook all and they never come forward we pay .....if they do win and they come forward an prove they have paid all good and we don't pay ......if the 2 teams win and they don't come forward deduct the tenner off the winnings and pay to allocated person ....think I covered every angle so you aren't out of pocket

Winner £150
Runner-up £70
Worst team in group stages £50
First team to lose on penalties £50

Only Canada can deny Qatar the worst team prize and they will need to lose by 3 goals to Morocco tomorrow. If they lose 2-0 though the prize will be shared.
Posted by: Les Brechin, December 1, 2022, 5:00pm; Reply: 27
After todays games Qatar win the prize for worst team in the group stage having lost all 3 games and a -6 goal difference.

The only other team to lose all 3 group games was Canada but they had a goal difference of only -5.

So £50 on its way to Bartgtfc and Brazilnut.

Well, Argentina have made the final. GTFC Garner has the Argies in one sweep and he is one of the ones I have been trying to get in touch with as I cannot see his entry fee coming in. I will wait until he contacts me before I pay out on this, As I have said before, there is a chance that he has paid and I might have missed it but I have not been able to contact him despite posts and PM's on here.

SWEEP 1 WINNER - GTFC GARNER

SWEEP 2 WINNER - LEE65

SWEEP 2 RUNNER-UP - WOZOFGRIMSBY


Now, GTFC Garner is one of the 2 people I have been trying to contact as I cannot trace their entry fee coming in, so I am going to hold onto paying that prize out until they contact me.

I have already paid out to Lee65 and he has kindly donated the £70 runner-up prize to The Brain Tumour Charity, so  massive thanks to him for that.

I will be sending Woz's prize to him next job.

Thanks to everyone who took part.

If he hasn't paid an entry fee and the competition is over, let alone started, I say you take any money you lost out then donate the rest to your chosen charity.

Well, 11 days after the final and still no contact at all from GTFC Garner.

Looks like he forgot that he even said he would enter this competition.

I'll give him another 10 days to get in touch and if he doesn't by then I'll have to sort out something else to do with the winning prize!

See above Les. Take any money you've lost and donate the rest
You're being far too kind, considering he hadn't even paid a single penny and the whole thing is well and truly over.

Well, still no contact from GTFC Garner regarding him winning the sweep so it appears to me that he just forgot that he said he would enter this competition.

This leaves me with £150 (£140 after taking his entry fee out).

Any suggestions what I should do with this money.

I'm think of splitting it up and giving it away at random to those who entered and didn't win a prize.

Any other suggestions?

It wouldn't sit right with me to keep it for myself so I have today donated £230 to The Brain Tumour Charity.

This is made up of £20 donated by Brazil Nut, £70 donated by Lee65 and the £140 from the winning sweep.
