The kindly personages over at EPL Talk have nominated us for a couple of their EPL Awards, namely Best EPL Blog and Best EPL Blogger. It’s a voice-of-the-people, audience-vote kind of thing, so if eight or ten thousand of you feel like surging over to the EPL Talk website and going grassroots on some polling widgets, I’d be grateful. Vote here:

Best EPL Blogger [this is the one I want to win]

Best EPL Blog [this is your chance to throw your vote away in a fit of quixotic idealism]
