A big thanks to all Pies fans who voted for us in Soccerlens’ football blog awards. We came out on top in their Best Overall Blog category, which I guess is a bit like winning Best Film at the Oscars, except without the gold statuette or Jack Nicholson sat in the front row with that shit-eating grin permanently etched on his face. It’s always nice to be recognised by peers and readers alike.
I’d like to thank God, my family, my agent etc. – and finally, thanks to Ahmed and the Soccerlens crew for putting us on the shortlist in the first place. You have excellent taste, gents.
