No Hello, just P4C.

[Dingdell]

I dont think they will have one. They have a Chairman of G4L (who I would guess is the director in terms of companies house for the enterprise company), a CEO of P4C (which wouldnt warrent having a finance director) and then they have trustees...

I know your thinking that a finance director would be needed to control the expenses but in all honesty it just wouldnt be needed. Once they have better control (recording and monitoring) they will be fine how they are set up. I say 'will', however it should probably be 'would have'....

Ok - so who takes responsibility for the financial decisions? (Probably a better question!  )

[Rooky9]

The CEO who is reportable to the Board (trustees and chairman). He would have full authority and accountability. I'm guessing but it seems logical to prevent having to make the whole thing even more ineffective.

Ok - thanks for that - but as you're not sure hopefully someone from the charity will be able to answer.
Thanks anyway

Blimey - i know how to shut a thread up!! Nothing for hours on this!!!

[Royal Flush]

and it was our first holiday away from the children.

Are you forgetting i tagged along? lol.

Is now the right time to post the video of Davey dancing on Freemont street?

How about the one of you dancing in the Bellagio with Rob??

Sssh we never speak of that video.

Fun times.

Oh it's the 'What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas' ??

It is if it involves 2 drunk blokes doing the robot.....

Thankyou for that, the Motherwell expenses look to be not as bad as I feared.

The expenses add up to just over £4.1k there, including the £1.5k lost to the Hotel and the £0.9k in Cardiff.

Earlier, we were told the total expenses for the year had been £20k.

With the £8k wages, and £4.1k accounted for here, a remaining question is what was the other £7.9k spent on.

(Someone want to check my maths)

Tank,

Andy has not given out any figures for this year, so not quite sure where you have got that figure from, it was said by Tikay that it was an estimated total for 2006 but as for the exact figures I do not personally have access to those I'm afraid.

I am more to do with the running of P4C and not G4L.

Ang

Yes, the figure of 30% for 2006 came from Andy & Tony. They suggested the % would "not be better" than 2005, & I'm sure they will confirm that.

I note Andy has not Posted today, as he suggested he might, can we assume you are responding on his behalf?

No I am not here on Andy's behalf, I am just here to answer any questions I can until Andy can get onto the internet himself.

Ang

Has Andy been able to get onto the internet yet?

[Fred Titmus]

Has Andy been able to get onto the internet yet?

Maybe he's gone on holiday to Vegas?

[ariston]

You don't holiday in vegas you go to work mate. For holidays you should try caribbean etc (unless there is a tourney on then it classes as work again )

Any luck with Andy's internet yet?

I know how he feels if it isn't back on. Been waiting for over 2 bloody weeks for the man to come round to fix my sky dish.

Very frustrating.

[ariston]

i think its about time he sorted out a new ISP. The customer service he is getting on his current one obviously isn't up to much.

I'm awaiting the next P4A (poker 4 andy) event where 23% of every buyin goes towards a new broadband connection and new PC.

I bet I know what's happened.

I reckon BT were due to reconnect Andy today, but they cried off because of the bloody snow.

Typical.

Probably.

It's just that every time I think of this thread I get pretty annoyed.

I went to three P4C events and donated a minimum of £200. I am not suggesting anything untoward, it's just I wish I had given it to a different "charity".

[Jamier-Host]

For some reason I thought that all the figures got published in the end?

The outcome being that a fair chunk of money was being spent on expenses etc. meaning that the charities were only getting a fairly low percentage of the money collected from players at events.

The consensus was that this was far too low (and not transparent during the events) and so everything wound down.
