I have been asked a couple of times recently if I have keep a record of The Fishy Busters I have run on here and if I had a grand total of donations and prizes etc given away.

Well I don't but with a bit of help from GrimRob he was provided me with the links to all the busters I have ran on here over the years. I think that this is fairly accurate and it shows that to date I have ran 15 competitions, this new one being the 16th.

I had some time last night so decided to look back into it and over the course of the past 15 games this is what I have managed to find out.

Total donated to The Mariners Trust - £1625.00
Total donated to The Graham Holness Fund £150.00
Total donated to The Phil Lambert Fund £300

Total all donations = £2075.00

Total won by winners over the 15 games I have run on here is an amazing £6605.00 as below

Grimsby2012 £440.00
Mike Roberts £365.00
Supertown £355.00
Penrith Mariner £350.00

Gobby £20.00

If you have had 1 entry in all the games I have ran the it would have cost you £150.00. I'm sure most of you will know roughly how many games you have entered, so you can see whether you are up or down over the years.

Don't forget that the new competition is now open and all entries will be gratefully accepted.

That's a great effort Les and on behalf of The Trust can I again just express our gratitude for your donations.
I should say though whilst the money is always welcome we would be quite happy if it wasn't seen as automatic that the Trust benefit if people decide there are more deserving causes.
Perhaps this latest one, if the majority of players were in agreement, could be directed the way of Fans of the Future?


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

I'm always open to suggestions as to where I should donate the money to each game Ian.
