So I cast a bleary 'New Year's Morning' eye over the results of 'THE Poll ' and my first thought was 'why' ?.
I know that Chubbyman voted for our worthy winner, to whom I send my sincerest greetings and best wishes for 2015 !.... I also note that Mab who week in - week out not only provides us with our regular supply of fun with 'guess the gate ?', but also ensures one way or another that the winner receives his or her prize, received little or no recognition for what he sees as being a true fan of The Reds !
Redraine, who as we all know, fights a real battle to take his place on t'Clayton End and makes a telling contribution to our Forum, is , via this sorry excuse for a poll cast aside like an old shoe !.
Valairian, that fount of all knowledge who is, as I know he intends, a real link between Forum and Club and whose bubbling enthusiasm is a sight to behold , is sadly omitted from the ill-prepared list of candidates !.
There is also a whiff of misogyny surrounding this poll as the omission of ACCYMAD might suggest !.... She too, as we know, deserves some recognition for the behind-the-scenes efforts which she puts in on behalf of our Club, as well as keeping we mere males in some
sort of check on the Forum !!... But does she get even a mention ?.
There are so many others who we all know could wear this accolade deservedly and with pride, but are conspicuous by their absence. To them, the Fans of this Year and every other Year I send my admiration and my VOTE !.

As for DAV007 ?.... I send my sincerest of good wishes for 2015, knowing that we both make
our entirely different contributions from one shared standpoint....we both support the best Football Club that ever was and ever will be !.
