    The multiple choice question style and the failure of colleagues to understand my clever headline has led to a judicial review of the game so far.

    A fresh ballot is requested so that people can vote correctly for my headline

    They're the type of guys that have so little imagination it was beyond them.

    I voted for you :emoticon-0148-yes:

    This thread is just like our transfer system. Lengthly and inadequately systematic.

    I say we make an official Vote Of No Confidence against the game host and have him removed from office immediately.

    Well, we can see what has happened here. Trev's entry only got 1 vote and so he did not progress to the next round and thus decided to simply drop the game altogether in a hissy fit that Isak would have been proud of.

    I think it's only right that we take this from him and continue the game without the cheat.

    As per the game rules, the top 4 votes went to:

    Villans and Magpies Play 'Spot the Striker' in Goalless Draw (DPP)

    Tight on the day but blanks still fired (Chippy)

    Blankety Blank (Obi Wan) OR Alexander the ingrate (Magdad)

    Creaky Grinders? Birmingham Villains lack cutting edge (Geordiehalfbreed)

    Now one of those was a combination of 2 entries, due to Trev's complete ineptitude. So we actally have 5 entries in the final round of voting.

    *Sorry @CaraMatt your entry simply didn't receive enough votes, despite also being paired with Munson's. The fans have spoken and it seems nobody likes a turncoat.

    As Trev has already used up the poll, in the interest of time, enter your nomination via a post clearly stating which of the following you are voting for:

    Villans and Magpies Play 'Spot the Striker' in Goalless Draw (DPP)

    Tight on the day but blanks still fired (Chippy)

    Blankety Blank (Obi Wan)

    Alexander the ingrate (Magdad)


    Creaky Grinders? Birmingham Villains lack cutting edge (Geordiehalfbreed)


    I'll go first, my vote goes to:
    Creaky Grinders? Birmingham Villains lack cutting edge (Geordiehalfbreed)

    No, I’m sorry… I have a challenge; my entry was tucked behind someone else’s entry so there was no way for someone to vote solely for mine.

    if I was on an electoral ticket with Vladimir Putin then who in their right mind would have put a YES next to it? Nobody.

    The process has fundamental flaws and I am not out of this yet.

    Seconded.

    and then I propose an immediate Vote-of-no-confidence in you… and an extension to this ballot so a that fair and transparent process can be implemented as quickly as possible, by me.

    Have you publicly apologised, begged for forgiveness and grovelled to be accepted back onto the Toon forum yet? No? Thought not.

    Motion denied.

    You’re not in charge…. I will apologise when the Board apologises for broken promises!

    Anyway, we’re off to Bewl Water now so consider me “training alone” <cheers>
