Default Re: golden ball

Let's think about the practicalities of this.

As it's a journalists vote, when are you going to ask them to vote? After the final when they're manically filing copy, ringing editors and meeting deadlines. I don't think so. And they're not exactly going to be bothered to vote the following day when they're checking out of hotels.

So when is the last possible time? Half-time I guess although many will want to have got it out of the way by then and voted before the match.

Just wish I'd asked a few journos I know who were out there covering it and then I could have got really greedy!
