Again what a fantastic start and thanks to everybody, this is a fantastic rally round and shows what we can do as a bunch!

No firm closing date from the organisers but they are suggesting it will run to Christmas at this stage, so gonna be a long slog!

Will keep you posted

Interesting that the 3 lowest clubs in the league structure - us, Ebbsfleet and Plymouth - have the big voting blocks at the moment.
It all comes 'round again.

:idea: Just a thought... can anyone confirm the email address that they are using so I can add it to my contacts list. I think my spam-filter may have blocked it.

I tried voting and it still hasnt sent me email to my account,

Also got Tim Farron local MP to post on twitter, as well as doing it myself, also linking it on every facebook page im a member of.

We need to win this, If I have to create 40,000 email accounts it shall happen lol :flag:

What do people think will be the total needed to win this?? Like the points mark in the BSP, im going for 18,000 seen as its a massive comp with a huge running time.

Martin,
Is there anyway you could look into where all the missing votes are going? can you get in touch with them? I voted hours ago now & still nothing same with a few friends who have had nowt back.
It'd be a shame if we lost out in the end because of some daft fault either by us or their e-mailing/voting system.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Maybe this is the back up plan. No development so we need the money to re-do the toilets and anything else that is urgent
everyone is entitled to their opinion, deal with it

Seriously? Christmas?

No way will it keep anyone's attention that long and after a week or so, the voting will dry up for everyone!

Never heard anything as ridiculous in my life!

Up by 42, Ebbsfleet falling behind now. Keep the votes rolling in and hopefully the email problem will solve.

Feel this is developing into a farce of x factor proportions. If the voting is going to drag on to Xmas then it is going to be wide open to all sorts of manipulation over 5-6 weeks.Lets be honest are we to seriously believe that Sheffield United haven't had a single vote. Even if they have luxurious bogs some people will vote on two spiders climbing up a dog turd.Its possible they could suddenly contrive thousands of votes just before the closing date. As for the voting problems I don't think its just us as Plymouth and Ebbsfleet fans are reporting the same.A fan of one suggested it may be because people are not ticking the box as requested( just an observation not a criticism). One Plymouth fan even suggested that there are only minor problems with their loos which would take much less than £100k to correct - perhaps thats the organisers plan - good publicity initially but with little outlay at the end !.Apparently they have 15,000 on their facebook page which immediately puts us at a disadvantage.Seems a very strange competition to me which doesn't have a cut-off date unless they are just waiting for the result they want. Personally I think its quite clear that only three clubs are interested and the farce should be ended now with a three-way split
