Vote! Vote! Vote!

What a terrible thing vanity is. Just when you think you're not bothered by trinkets and gold, someone offers you a sparkling gem and it consumes your very existence.

That's the situation we found ourselves in when a nice man at Soccerlens.com contacted us yesterday to say that Some People Are On The Pitch had been nominated for three of its Readers Choice awards.

Apparently we've been shortlisted in the following categories:

- Best Overall Blog
- Best Design
- Best Blog Name

...which made us feel suitably self-satisfied and not a little big-headed, if we're honest. And now of course we wait and see if we actually win any of these awards, but therein we have a problem.

You see to win an award, we need to receive as many votes as possible from good, honest, kind people like yourself who selflessly head over to Soccerlens.com with no other motive than to make us feel loved and wanted.

So if you feel the need to, put a metaphorical tick in the box for Some People Are On The Pitch on any of the above voting pages and tell the world that you're part of something special - a blogsite that loves you as much as you love it.

Thank you to each and every one of you from the very heart of our bottom.

  2. just wrote them to correct a dead link for your site on their "Best Overall Blog Site" page. It leads to a 404 page.

  3. I've voted for you too... I'm totally unbiased, of course!

    ps. Why the hell are England playing in red tops and Switzerland in white tops? It's confusing a poor kiwi!

  4. Thanks Ratonbox, and thanks TheGreatDandini - I really appreciate that. :)

    As for you Chalkgirl, it all comes down to how many new England shirts Umbro can sell, and if they happen to be red, then that's what the team will wear... :)

  5. That's fine for Umbro.. but I think I spent half the match supporting Switzerland! And just when I thought I was getting the hang of the game, too.

  6. You've got my support Chris O, I've voted for you on every category. One problem though, I can't vote 10,000 times for you! One will do though for now!
