Take a bow, son, take a bow.
December 15, 2021 at 23:11 #1572768A few nominations from me are below. Have not nominated a Poster of the Year as the field is too strong to pick just one.
TRF Thread of the Year: Authoritarian Dictator. I feel a bit bad for not nominating a horseracing thread such as the excellent ones by Bachelors Hall and Betlarge, but this thread evolved into something that had very funny contributions from lots of different people, not least the hilarious race commentary from Ian Davies. The forum at its best.

I see that my post was quickly removed from here, hmmm. Nothing too bad about it and yet posts that have called me a racist, and another that told me to Fu** off on the main forums recently were allowed to stay.
Poor!

I’d also like to point out – while I’ve still got a voice on here – that I’ve noticed some brand-new names logged in for the last few nights and anyone who can log in will be able to vote. I should hope that they wouldn’t be allowed a vote, though, as that would be farcical in some categories such as Poster of the Year.
