The film now trying to find funding\u00a0has very little to do with us. As far as we\u2019re aware, the project will still be based on the script that Simon and I wrote, based on my original idea. However, that\u2019s as far as our involvement currently\u00a0stands, and we do not endorse the project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For these and other reasons Simon and I feel we must distance ourselves from the project. We are no longer convinced that the film &#8220;Scrum Like it Hot&#8221; will resemble anything close to our creative vision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By all means support the project, but be under no illusions that in doing so you will be supporting us. You will not be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As for myself and my team, we have picked ourselves up, dusted ourselves down and are now working on further projects, as disappointing as events of the last few months have been, we have not been put off doing what we believe we can do. Expect further statements regarding other projects in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the meantime, I would like to thank every single person that has believed in us and for all the support that we have been given. It all means more to us then\u00a0we can possibly express.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Martyn Chalk<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1299\" style=\"width: 292px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/martyn_chalk.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1299\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1299 \" title=\"Martyn Chalk - Writer - Scrum Like it hot\" src=\"http:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/martyn_chalk.jpg\" alt=\"martyn_chalk writer - scrum like it hot\" width=\"282\" height=\"294\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1299\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">No Longer attached to the &#8220;Scrum Like it Hot&#8221; Project.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Statement From the Writers of No Balls &#8211; Scrum Like it Hot As I\u2019m sure most of you are now aware, I am not currently\u00a0attached to the project \u201cNo Balls\u201d AKA \u201cScrum Like it Hot\u201d and a new director has been attached.\u00a0 I am greatly saddened not to be involved after four years of development and hard work, up until &#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/statement-from-the-writers-of-no-ballsscrum-like-it-hot\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[40,25,143],"class_list":["post-669","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-no-balls","tag-scrum-like-it-hot","tag-unethical","no-post-thumbnail"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/669","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=669"}],"version-history":[{"count":23,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/669\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2478,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/669\/revisions\/2478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=669"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chalkstar.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
