UEFA Fair Play

Where exactly can one get a hold of the international scores in this competition? Do UEFA just release them randomly?

This seems to be the last update. Final decision will be made by the end of the month.

Random release basically.

I tried e-mailing UEFA one year, but never heard back. Just have to wait and see.

Bump.

Time to start keeping an eye out on this. The competition ends next Monday, although there's as yet no indication when final results will be announced or when the draw will be made.

Last season, the competition ran until 31 May, and the results were out on 1 June, with the draw on 4 June, so it should all happen fairly quickly. We're outsiders to even get into the hat though, as we're on 7.935 (below the 8 required), and I think last year, the majority of countries' scores went down after the mid-season update (something like 20 countries above 8 down to 11).

I e-mailed them, eventually got an automated response, sent an e-mail complaining that the automated response was irrelevant and never heard back. It seems UEFA couldn't give a toss about responding to e-mails.

How many e-mails do they get every day though?

I understand that, but if they bounce back irrelevant automated responses then they musn't answer any. They could at least admit as such, the automated response was a smug one that acted as it it comprehensively covered everything including the meaning of life.

Did you try calling Nyon?

**Poor Student** · 25/04/2007, 9:39 AM

You're not serious are you? I couldn't imagine the pain of trying to penetrate that bureaucracy. Have you ever seen the leadup to a CL draw?

**Aberdonian Stu** · 25/04/2007, 9:42 AM

You'd be surprised. It's the last thing they expect. I made an enquiry a few years ago about player compensation and got a clear enough response from someone who clearly wasn't supposed to be allowed answer.

Besides given how effective email has been you won't fare much worse via phone.
