Not happening. Never signed up. No idea what it is about and not interested.

Pretty sure that’s you signing up on the first page.

Nope… the whole thing is a joke, highlighting id rather telephone gamble with Vegas than do this. I can see the confusion though.

Ah, I didn’t really get the post, just assumed you putting £5 down was agreement to take part.

Never mind, I’m sure the sick little kiddies will forgive you for the betrayal.

You made a joke, but ended it with “ffs ok”.

That’s confirmation.

Pay up, or is this still part of the joke, where you’re the stereotypical tight arse Scotsman?

We can all pretend Scotland qualified if that makes parting with a fiver easier :lou_lol:

The last line was the punchline, as in they just did telephone gambling and were told they lost without actually having seen where the ball landed. I can genuinely say I had no idea you thought I was taking part and would not have claimed the money on the sweepstake if I had won. In fact, I didn’t even read much of the first post to begin with and haven’t read any of it after my joke.

I could not give two fucks whether you believe me or not as I could not give two fucks about the forum anymore. I used to post on fiver web and saints forever before that for a bit of a laugh and 5 mins escapism from work. There were definitely some funny threads and that was achieved. However, Pap has made it clear this is more of a social club with a bit of backslapping thrown in afterwards. I can’t attend as I think I might hit pap and regret it or not hit pap and regret it.

I’d rather fund terrorism than give pap or similar a fiver. As a way of a compromise, how about… The winner nominates a decent charity, good cause, no directors on £100K+ and I will donate my fiver to that cause?

Ummm, that’s what the Kiddies charity at Soton General is, not sure about the Director bit but I’m sure @goatboy can confirm or deny that.

Yeah, that sounds fine. As long as it is not a shit big business one.
