    Non-EPL post/poster of the year: Turtwig, shout out to Inforfun and also dreamers75 and Oat23 also.

    Most biased poster: Couple of contenders for this but for sheer entertainment, even though he articulates and plans his points well, it has to be AIG for his bias of all things Barca, Pep or Messi.

    Some award for helpful posts. Have the poster citytillidie in mind, his work on CL, EL, and now live games on tv threads, giving all fixtures and results are always very handy.

    Could just lump into poster of the year too I guess, but I see that as all round contribution.

    I'd like to nominate myself for poster of the year, cause I'm great, in fact I think I should win all the awards in case it breaks.

    I haven't written anything, because I'm not really good at that type of thing. But I did a drawing.

    I haven't been able to post much this year so I'm a bit out of touch.

    Post of the Year 2015: The doughboy one bye bye ala co*k suckers.

    Poster of the Year 2015: Not for his football knowledge because that's terrible, but for funny light hearted posts and great nodding, gavredking

    Thread of the Year 2015: I'll go for a non obvious one, Gary Neville becomes Valencia head coach. Had everything.

    Non-EPL post/poster of the year: Baldy conscience, only one I can think off, plus made his straganoff recipe, tasted good.

    Most likely to be banned in 2016: turdyturd still around? Him if so.

    Most biased poster: K9. Check out the 'alternative table' if anyone needs proof, it has Liverpool winning the league I think.

    The first part was just a smart arse quip which lead on to the real reason for posting. Is it that hard to understand?

    Boards Poster's Fanboy of the year....OwaynOTT....:pac:

    Edit..
    I should fluff this post out a bit:

    Post of the Year 2015: Doughboy's one was epic. Don't know if it counts for this year. It should be immortalized into some SF Hall of fame somewhere!
    Poster of the Year 2015: Gavredking, purely because he's offered to foot the bill for a coke n hookers party for all who nominate him.
    Thread of the Year 2015: Ireland beating Germany, we all fcukin' loved that thread!
    Non-EPL post/poster of the year: I haven't a notion for this one, and now my dogs just farted. It's rank. I want to leave the room now.
    Most likely to be banned in 2016: Mick, apparently!
    Most biased poster: Sorry AIG, I do love reading your posts, If you had a newsletter I'd subscribe...but you do like yer Barca and yer Spain and yer whatnots!

    Post of the Year 2015: Super Rush could well find himself employed by Tourism Ireland if he keeps up this sort of hospitality: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=94677475&postcount=2741

    Poster of the Year 2015: There's a good few I like. Hammer Archer, Bounty Hunter... but Paully D's loving hate for his beloved Sunderland reminds me of my own loving hate for my own Newcastle... and Bohs... even though they're actually alright these days. ;)

    Thread of the Year 2015: The Ireland v Germany one is quite an incredible thread to read back upon.

    Non-EPL post/poster of the year: Dozen Wicked Words (his account is now closed) is a pretty decent poster. Northampton Town fan if I recall correctly. Seems like an all round sound fella.

    Most likely to be banned in 2016: One of Saipanne or Conor74 I'd say.

    Most biased poster: I guess everyone is biased but AndersonIsGod takes the absolute biscuit and I'm still not sure if he's become a parody of himself or was a deliberate piss take. Either way, good job. ;)

    Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,977 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I think PaullyD should be poster of the year. He is always around, heart on sleeve as far as his own club is concerned. He is never, that I can remember, involved in fighting or bullying other posters. He seems a very unbiased poster.

    LuckyLloyd is another fantastic poster, very enjoyable reading his posts because of his command of the English language and he'd be a close second for me.
