Kathy 728 Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) The draw is done! Nutty, Til1010 and myself went up to the Nest this morning and got the DS team to do the honours for us. I am always bowled over by the enthusiasm with which the girls and boys approach everything they do even pulling a small piece of paper out of a tupperware box! You can see what I mean for yourselves shortly as Nutty is going post a video of the proceedings on this thread. You can also see there was no funny business lol! Anyway, this is how it all panned out. Don't forget, even if you ended up with a 'less than fancied' team, you might still win something as there are some bonus prizes. Here is a reminder: Good luck everybody! Winner: £150 Runner up: £50 Third place: £20 Quickest goal to replace first penalty. Eddie won it and donated his prize back : Stadium tour. First red: CSF Prize First penalty: CSF Prize First VAR: Stadium Tour Sunday 26th February 2023 at 11.00am to 12pm. First team out on pens: CSF Prize Highest shirt number to score a goal: Bottle of wine. Good luck everybody! Edited December 7, 2022 by Kathy 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,352 Posted November 12, 2022 Thanks @Kathy and @TIL 1010 we had a great morning with the DS team. Definitely the best part of the day 🙃👍 I have 6 mins of the video.

Pockthorpe 515 Posted November 12, 2022 Marvellous 🤩! I’ve got the boy Josh Sargent 🇺🇸 to follow . Like I wouldn’t anyway . I do like that boy a lot. He took a knock second half and could easily have thought about the World Cup and wanted off - he didn’t . He’s bought in to us , so I’m buying big time into him. Thanks so much Kathy for doing this . 🙏 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He can score against England for me😯 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMF 720 Posted November 13, 2022 Oh Canada 🇨🇦 that selection probably sums up perfectly my enthusiasm for this particular World Cup, but it sounds like the DS team had a blast, which is what it’s all about really. OTBC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry there's only 6 mins but that's enough to see it was done properly and how much fun we all had. Thanks again Kathy and Tilly 🙏💛⚽💚👍 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathy 728 Posted November 20, 2022 Matchday at last. Get your game face on! I know some of us have misgivings about this World Cup and quite rightly so, but this thread is just for a bit of fun and to raise money for the CSF. First up is Qatar (Hector Brocklebank) versus Ecuador (Nutty Nigel). Don't forget there are some prizes up for grabs straight away: First penalty: Stadium Tour Sunday 26th February 2023 at 11.00am to 12pm First red: CSF Prize First yellow: CSF Prize First VAR: Stadium Tour Sunday 26th February 2023 at 11.00am to 12pm. Nutty and I will be keeping an eye on the others. Good luck everyone! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
