leeslover Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Andi Peters was head of BBC Children's tv at the time though. I think... In which case, there might have been a conflict of interest if Tony Hart's contract was being discussed And yes, I mean exactly what you fear that I mean. Anyway, what I want to know is what is being done about these missing votes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 There's going to be a run off in a month's time. Give us chance to intimidate those who voted against. Or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel8157 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) whatever the club do people will bitch and moan, they should just carry on what they are doing. Edited May 28, 2008 by daniel8157 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Nope, I like the fun of guessing...whilst the player is having a medical. I like it the way it is and would hope the thoughts of some pedants woudn't change this when the majority are happy with the current system.

martjs Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Apparently it is if you take time to read the offical site..... And seven missing votes is just under 10% of the vote! You have a point - those seven votes could have been "Superdelegates" Those votes need re-instating, if not those members have become disenfranchised...

But what about the dimpled chads? Still, at least nobody has mentioned Zimbabwe yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok then... I remember our much-loved fanzine (BTB) likening the "voting for the 1994 semi-final at Wembley" to some Eastern European country's general election...

R.O.A.M Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 The biggest vote rigging scandal since the ahem, tangerine fix away kit. No wonder it wasn't an option this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think I think what you think I fear you mean then that is one of the most shocking revelations ever not quite made on this messageboard. Staggering.

Macca Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 So according to the poll they're gonna make some fans unhappy if they don't announce anything until deals are done and some fans unhappy when they do. Perhaps they should create two separate websites? The only way possible to keep everyone happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyPimp Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 They'll have to start using 'spoiler' alerts like on movie websites! That way, you'd only have yourself to blame as you recover from the disappointment that Patric Berger hasn't signed for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggering. Surely not up there with the one I mentioned about the unnamed sports presenter who likes to watch in a right handed fashion? I have put dozens of people off their savoury snacks with that one. But yes, just as you fear. And if you doubt my veracity, remember that I am the guy who knew pretty soon after the event that the dead Tory MP Stephen Milligan didn't just have a piece of tangerine in his mouth, he also had a carrot up his arse. Anyway, heard that there were 7 dimpled chads living down the road who have yet to make up their minds. Duty calls :bat: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 How tempting would it be if you were Stu Vose, the Latics webmaster to put a story up "New signing today"? Be even funnier if after a day of F5ing to release another story at 5:30 to say that new Gents and Ladies signs had been put up in the main stand. I would laugh my tits off.

Although I would guess only one of them would get any hits - the one which gives us all the chance of an afternoon's speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 ....new Gents and Ladies signs had been put up in the main stand. What a relief - hope it's not just a rumour - about time the Club did something for our convenience - flushed with that success, it should be much easier to find the Gents' toilet now!
