Just looking at the latest "poll" on the MNS RTE Web-site, The three best goals for June, IMHO, Behan, Barrett and Byrne have amassed a massive 5% of the vote while the err unforgettable Chris Turner goal has amassed a whopping70% of the vote, almost 1600 clicks! `
Aren`t all matters Dundalkian fab at garnering a vote.? The MNS poll for club most likely to win the league also put the Lily Whites first.
Would it be possible, I wonder, to introduce some type of scanner to ensure that ,in the unlikely event that fans are voting more than once in on-line polls, that steps are taken to ensure that nobody puts themselves at risk of Repetitive Strain Injury?

I think it'd be easier not to get too worked up about internet polls, to be honest.

I'm sure it's perfectly possible to check if your IP address has already voted, but in the end of the day, no-one really cares that much.

Additional 262 votes for Turner in an hour! Phenomenol finger action! Gloved and ungloved presumably.

Someone might entered the site via the back door and manipulated the results.

When are the FAI going to do something about this vote rigging?
