Not that I'm a miserable old git..although you are free to disagree, but really, what's the point of these each year? It seems to me at least primarily just an opportunity for a few dozen people to congratulate themselves. I could suggest much, much better and more productive ways of VM engaging with its customers - this annual self-congratulation seems just dated, pointless and anachronistic.

Fair do's Rolf , on returning to the game this year I have adopted the policy of voting for teams and managers I have not voted for before , in fairness it would be better policy if you won award in the past that's your lot .

Apart from "Crew Member of the year" - which obviously has to go to a crew member
- and for that award alone - yes - it has to be a recognition of the work done by each person,
I will be looking to vote for a relatively new - or inexperienced - manager in each category.
I believe that they will benefit the most from the prize, and more importantly - keep their interest in the game going smiley

Agree. Why not just have a lotteryi know they draw a couple but forget awards and just have a Christmas giveaway. The person who is bad at the game contributes the same as the ones in top 10 rankings (assuming he/she buys premium).

About time though!

Maybe next year we can have a "best foreign manager of the year" award too? Would be nice to see an English manager win something other than the 'you participated vote so here's some premium'
