Me again, sorry!

Okay Gentlemen, We have news on the Matt Hawker Cup 2019.

So far, what do we know?
The date will be the 15th of June
And held in Oxfordshire-ish again.

After speaking to all 24 players, they have all told me they would like to play again next year, and due to their monumental effort how can anyone say no?

After seeing the wonderful words and backing on the site, it is clear a lot more people want to join in for 2019, so we have decided to increase squad sizes from 12 to 14, allowing us to have 4 new players.

Quite frankly there is no easy way to choose, so from as of right now we are running a competition.

It is one question you have to answer, by midnight, Friday the 22nd of June.

How many in TOTAL, goals will be scored at the world cup 2018. So yes this includes all goals previous to today, so time to do some homework ;)

The closest 4 will be added into the Matt Hawker cup, the next 4 after that will be placed on the reserve list. It is an honour to Matt and the website that so many people want to get involved and for that i am extremely grateful.

For any ties in the final standings, it will work on closest guess then move down to who submitted their guess first, so you may want to wait till friday after a few more goals, but is it worth the risk?!

Please email me on benjaminallen1991 @ hotmail . co . uk, your username if you have one, contact email address and your guess.

Best of luck!

Should concider having a reserve player list mate, if you get enough new members maybe launch a 5/ 7 tourney or summit, anyway just a thought. Congrats on the last events success too mate and al that took part.

The plan is to have the MHC organised early, to free up my time in setting up the inter-page tournament mate where loads more posters can get involved :)

Just watched the game there seemed like great days craic and the kids commentary so much better than Tyler on sky well done to all involved.

Just watched the first half. Brilliant commentary and that dive near the end of the first half would make Neymar envious.

My guess is 95 goals. Quite high I know but.

I don't have a car however so I'm not going to submit my guess and take a much wanted place. Good luck guys.

How much was raised in the last game in the end Benny?

Thanks Stone, the kids were Baz’s boy Josh and my son Alex. The diver was Ed01’s captain, my new friend and Tom Daly coach, Irish Ken from the Man Utd page, he taught Ahley Young all he knows.
I thought my well timed tackle on him in the second half was very unfairly punished with yet another free kick to the greens, Tommy Smith would have been happy with it I think 😛.

Stoneage it was £1000 thanks to Benny and especially Cheshire Red on the Man United page, Ken, also Man United and Ed02’s generosity with donations and sponsorship
We all paid a contribution to play and it was worth every penny, wonderful day and fantastic camaraderie 😀.

Guys please do enter the comp. You won't regret it.
Lots of craic and lots of goood heads.
Fitness is not a huge issue Benny koppite and i don't expect everybody to be fine tuned athletes like ourselves.
Mk scouser has promised he will shorten all his posts by 50% if we raise more money next year so that's got to be worth it.
Id love to see more guys there even in a supporting capacity.
Cheers.
Ken.

Koppite, the reaction from yours and Baz's son on the dive was priceless. I'm still chuckling at their comments on the dive. Good stuff.

Sorry for the poor grammar above, i didn't mean to imply that you and Baz had a son together.

No worries mate, MK Scouser would be green with envy at the thought though 🤢.
