I think this thread would be worth making a site-wide announcement :)
I tried doing one earlier(just in off-topic though) but it didn't work for some reason. Will try again later.
despite the posts by Stann, centre mid and Wolfie giving me a good chuckle, ive gon for gilberto eire's description of the typical matchday experience! Makes me laugh everytime!! :D
Had to go for Student Mullet.
Wolfie's still makes me laugh
Gilberto eire
Prize has been decided for the winner. It'll be one of the piggybanks (an elephant) from last year and a foot.ie talk balls t-shirt.
Anytime I click on it, it just comes up as a blank page...:confused:Quote:

yeah, but on the other hand it was magic me... Just saying ;)Quote:

Some good ones there alright, but I thnk Osarusan's just sums up foot.ie in many ways.
Compared to previous years the standard is crap unfortunately. Says it all when an anecdote rather than a witty remark is leading the poll.Quote:

I think it's only been running three years. Couldn't swear to it though.Quote:

Voting numbers are well down on previous years.
bloody recession.
I am amazed that nothing from the famous "Dumbass" thread got nominated.
Similarly, how R***n *osa failed to get a nomination is another mystery.
Agreed. He was the only funny guy on here.Quote:

If you take out club voting, gilberto and centre mid are in joint first.
Please tell me people don't vote for their club in POTM competitions?Quote:

I voted for myself once in a POTM competition before I saw how terribly uncool it was.
Not when I posted originally, it was 5-5;)Quote:

Well lads i can honestly say i didn't even hear about this thread until Sligoman messaged me to say i won, so i had no hand in getting the GUFC vote.
Center-mid would have been a worthy winner.
I'd like to thank God..... well because he decided to flood Cobh, which lead to my story :D
Sorry Bluebeard i think you will find that should be infamous
A gracious & dignified acceptance speach WD gilberto_eire.
The infamous "Dumbass Thread".Quote:

LUCKY: A hundred thousand pesos to do a personal appearance on the Dumbass thread, who is probably the biggest thread to ever come out of foot.ie!
DUSTY: Wow, the IN-famous? IN-famous?
Loved that film haven't seen it in ages. I laughed my ass off when they shot the invisable man.Quote:
