An unnamed local sports administration is in line to scoop a prestigious national award for 'embuggerment', a current affairs magazine revealed this week.
According to Yeah, Whatever Magazine, the administration in question runs a number of sporting events in several north east locations, but is favourite for the award following its 'management' of local cricket activities.
"The embuggerment award is very important in this day and age, when everything seems to be about transparency and customer focus. The award harks back to good old fashioned British values of incompetence, laziness and jobs-worth...iness", claimed Yeah, Whatever’s Entertainment Spokesman Anthony Hancock.
The administration is primarily involved in pitch booking for local cricket teams, however its commitment to this cause has come into question recently, with some experts believing that it is indulging deliberately in 'embuggering' activities. Of their three main cricket grounds, one developed a reputation for last minute postponements, another has recently experienced major booking problems, and the third suffered a spate of ill prepared pitches before being concreted over and turned into a car park.
"This will be a major coup for the administration, and one which I believe is thoroughly merited," added Hancock.
Previous winners include Group 4 Security, the Health and Safety Executive, the FA, and several construction companies, whilst the European Commission is in line for a special commendation recognising "50 years of embuggerment, Europe-wide".
Last year the award was won by the award presentation event organiser when it cancelled at the last minute due to a double booking.
