Welcome to the all new POTM competition hosted by Sligoman and myself :)
The competition will work as follows:

>From the 8th to the end of each month you may post your nominations in this thread
>During the 1st-7th of the next month the top message in this thread will become a poll in which you can vote for your favourite nomination
>On the 8th of the next month the winner will be announced on this thread and be entered into the Post of the Year competition whcih will run after the December winner is announced


The rules are as follows:

1. Each user may make as many nominations as they want
2. Nominations must take the form of the nominees name as a hyperlink to the thread of the post followed by a quote of the post
3. You cannot nominate a post that has already been nominated as it is already in the vote
4. Nominations must be of a post made between the 1st and the end of the month. The nomination must be submitted between the 8th and the end of the month
5. Discuss nominations in the POTM Discussion thread (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=28586)-not in this thead; any dicussion posts, nominations not meeting the set format or double nominations will have to be delted to prevent clutter
6.You may vote between 1st-7th of the following month
7.You can nominate anybody except yourself

You may start nominating August Posts now....everyone should get the hang of it soon and hopefully it'll run well :)

EDIT: As there hasn't been a POTM competition for a while, we will be accepting posts from July aswell. So if you want to nominate a July post then put it in this thread

Thunderblaster on The Rose of Tralee:

Waiting for the classic New York Rose one liner. "I'm from Brooklyn and My mother came from County Killarney and my father came from County Blarney and I do Irish dancing and play Camogie and Ireland is a wonderful country. My boyfriend is Zach and he is in the audience and he is a cute guy and I love playing with his flute, in which I will perform for you." :eek: :DHERE.

I nominate Pete (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=28004) (post no. 7) for this classic

I think RTE are just showing City v Shels so less Shels fans will travel (is that possible?) so City will lose money.
Also, this cheeky one liner (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=28625) by the same Pete, again post no. 7:

Jaysus. What do you do all day? ;)

Being the greedy git that I am, I also nominate TerryPhelan (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=28290&page=1&pp=20) for this well-crafted post.

... 'cos I just can't get it out of my head. Fellow posters, I am admittedly the most pessimistic Irish fan alive. Probably. I always fear the worst. As most of you can probably understand, however, it is usually a strategy of indirect reverse-psychology: constantly willing your team to defy your doomsday predictions. At the very least, adopting a generally resigned attitude towards Ireland's chance of success (while obviously cheering them on at the top of my voice) means you either end up proven delightfully wrong or else you were correct. Even with all this in mind, I just cannot see us beating France. Scratch that, actually. I cannot see us not losing to France.

I nominate

FT Shelbourne [1 - 2] UC Dublin
86' [1 - 0] Hawkins
90' [1 - 1] Gannon
90' [1 - 2] Martin

Two goals in the 90th shatter Shelbourne's season into tiny fun size pieces :D

So then - what's the excuse tonight?

No League
No FAI Cup
No League Cup
No Europe
No Setanta

No Clue

JEALOUS? I think not!

In the unlikely event that their will be any more nominations made this month(30mins left), I'm going to close this thread now and the voting should start tomorrow or the next day(depending on when Liam or I gets round to it :o ). Thanks to everyone who took time to nominate a post and please keep it going for next month
