Down with this sort of thing

This story about a Chesterfield FC raffle is the most ridiculous thing you'll hear all day

The long version follows, but to cut it short...

The League One side recently ran a competition for a supporter to join the squad on their pre-season tour of Hungary.  Tickets were £10 a pop, and the club obviously thought there'd be enough entries to at least cover costs.  Who knows, maybe there'd even be a few quid left over?

They only ended up selling 4 or 5 tickets though, so rather than find themselves out of pocket they just made up a winner.  Incredible!

This is how it all went down.

The man responsible for the debacle, marketing director Kevin Fitzgerald, has since resigned.  What a mess!
