OK, I'll have a think. I'll see if there's an app to weed out subliminal messages.

I'll fill out the others after. But my Best Cricket Headlines...

In third place, KJ's typically waspish:
KipperJohn wrote:
braveneutral wrote:KP called up to shadow cabinet due to his alleged Yes Man qualities.


KP sacked from shadow cabinet for sending derogatory texts about Corbyn to Cameron.


In second place, Durham's typically witty:
Durhamfootman wrote:The Shashank Redemption


And first, Aidan's atypically acerbic:
Aidan11 wrote:Kim jong-un is shocked at the brutal regime of the ECB.
I always say that everybody's right.

Otherwise:
1) Funniest poster. See above. Probably plump for Durham again.
2) Controversial Poster (in a friendly way). Never know what to make of this category.
3) Best Thread. 365's impressively punctual time machine thread, On This Day.
4) Best Poll: Al's Best Vantage Point.
5) Best Predict a Cricket Headline for 2015: Aidan's as above.
6) Most Intelligent User: Sussex is a good poster to have on your side in a discussion.
7) Best Cricket Knowledge: Can take this different ways. I'll stick with the authoritative Adi, pretty good at reading the game.
8) Most Dedicated Poster: Recently, have to go for Bhaves.
9) Most Helpful Poster: Durhamfootman, of course. All those fantasy leagues. Cheers. Alviro deserves a lot of thanks in this regard too. And both excellent posters.
10) Most Interesting Poster: I'll go for Mike, in a tough field. Pretty much an all rounder and we share similar politics.
11) User I would most like to meet: The genial and charming captaincolly. Always appreciate his and Hope's (and others') posts on films.

12) Best User Overall: For general posting and cricket analysis, and articles, Sussex has been in sparkling form.

Many entertaining posters. Appreciate reading so many interesting, good humoured comments, not only from regular posters (been great to see Yuppie around more, and Rich posting again), and the occasionals too, like Shanky, KJ and Alfie who are usually close to the mark, and particularly Slipstream who I inevitably end up realising is quite right. And our inimitable host. Cheers fellas.
I always say that everybody's right.
