The  final  and  most  sacred  fine  of  all:  

Any  tampering  with  the  fines  bible  or  the  money  attached,  this  includes  playing  silly  buggers  and  fine  rigging,  will  be  fined  the  maximum  EUR  5  fine.  

General  comments:  

1 All  money  collected  for  both  fines  and  the  game  contributions  will  be  noted  on  an  excel  sheet  that  will  be  in  the  fines  bible.  This  will  allow  us  to  see  who  has  paid  and  how  much  money  has  been  collected.  

2 All  payments  made  for  lunch,  coffee  and  drinks  after  the  game  as  well  as  travel  expenses  will  also  be  noted  on  the  sheet  to  show  how  much  money  was  spent  out  of  the  team  fund.  

3 All  the  funds  collected  will  be  used  for  the  team  as  decided  by  the  team.  This  will  be  discussed  as  a  team.  

4 Any  non-­‐  payment  on  the  player’s  behalf  shows  a  proper  lack  of  respect  for  your  fellow  team  members  and  your  team.  If  you  don't  want  to  pay  fines,  then  don't  flout  the  rules.  Maximum  of  1  week  to  be  allowed  to  pay  the  fines.  

5 Please  also  remember  that  these  fines  are  not  a  serious  punishment  and  that  the  idea  behind  them  is  to  generate  some  funds  for  the  team  and  to  make  people  accountable  for  their  actions.  It  is  all  a  bit  of  fun!
