what a ridiculous award.
What do the baby's have to do to win? Undertake the most charity work or something?

I think it is basically a targeted photograph marketing scheme. Take baby to Matalan or whereever for a free "professional" photo and entry into Baby of the Year. If proud Mum and Dad want extra copies of the photos, they cost something over £50.

It's very nice for Joey and his family.
It does tho amuse me sometimes when you get to see the pictures that get sent in to these sort of things. I know that generally babies are lovely, but sometimes you have to wonder - particularly when the parents send in some damn ugly ones.
It's like that episode of Father Ted with the hairy babies sometimes.

How sad, the Oxford Mail give the award cause of who the babys dad is. The Oxford mail is such a pathetic paper. 40p to read about cats stuck in trees and and old people who love drinking tea

I once "borrowed" one of those Oxford Mail headline posters from the side of the metal newstands that read... "Wheely bin hits man into tree" That's headline material if I ever saw it. Sheesh!

You love booze, Joey. Not Mickey Mouse.

You love booze, Joey. Not Mickey Mouse. No, apart from Wembley he has been off the drink, become more of a family man. Also I understand he has been abiding by the driving ban. He is sorting himself out and having a good wife and baby can help put things into perspective. He would love something to do with the club

In reality I'm happy for him that he's turned his life around. I would imagine it's easy for players that are forced into early retirement to press the self destruct button. I hope he can stay on the straight and narrow.

I think your calculators broke if these numbers add up to you.

There is lot of us of the forum whose child bearing years hopefully are well behind us. If you win thought let me know and ill vote for you, sorry your baby. (Does your misses know you’re planning one)

(Does your misses know you’re planning one) tbh it wasn't a very serious suggestion, but for the sake of the conversation, i don't suppose those people without babies would bid, but theres bound to be a few members with offspring of that age, they could bid against each other.
