'The Boardsie Hack of the Year'.

I can safely say I can be excluded, given I'm not a member of Council this year.

Though I could qualify for the 'The Boardsie Political Hack of the Year'. Maybe?

I would suggest some sort of tiresome idiot award, or most annoying poster, but it would be tantamount to e-bullying.

Sure we could have an award like the 'Gaffe of the Year' as such was awarded to Michael McDowell by Magill, for comparing Richard Bruton to Joseph Goebbels.

Although I know you're joking, there is a difference between a put down and UCD boards awards.

(For future reference, I was by no means implying any homicidal tendencies, nothing of the sort. I have better things to do, like wash my dog and take my hair for a walk.)

Grumpiest boardsie, Grimes? Would that do ya?
