Just voted, & e-mail confirmation came within a few seconds - no problem.

Tomorrow, some serious arm-twisting is called for!

Have the runners of the competition looked at the entries before allowing them to enter as I have been to Plymouths ground and there is absolutely nothing wrong with their toilets, where they got that photo from is beyond me, no league club should be allowed to win this or even enter given the amount of money they have through league sponsorship, keep voting for Barrow.

Looks like the site has crashed. Don't be surprised if everyone's total is completely different when it returns. Cynic. Me ?

Yes they (whoever they are?) do seem to be having problems with their site. http://www.bestloosers.co.uk/ is displaying "Bandwidth Limit Exceeded", it says try again later.

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!
thats a long time to have to wait for a shit!

how can they have a vote without a definate closing date and time who ever the competition winners want to win will just close then .. plus its a great scheme for capturing email addresses .. even if the confirmation emails arent coming through .. (probably the same for the clubs)

close to 1am and still no email to confirm my vote. Total Farce if you ask me, Still. Hope we win and will continue to push and promote it incase it accepts other peoples votes. Certainly not been thought through this though.

Keep going guys...

Seems really hit and miss wether the emails get sent or not, possibly something to do with the server lagging - just try with different email addresses - if it doesn't work ;)

Well I have instructed the staff in my office to vote and about another 20 have been clocked up in the last 10 mins.
Some people really do need to think a bit more before they post things on here
