cushynumber 25,178 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 The suggestion period will begin on Wednesday 3 October and will run until Sunday 14 October, before the names are whittled down by a judging panel including a gritter driver, Care at Home worker and a member of the local community. The finalists will be split into groups and the community will be invited to vote on their winners through the council's Twitter page @RenCouncilNews.

Cheers Cushy, I've just now come from spending 40 mins of my lunch hour plus 25 mins earlier this morning putting in Bravehound suggestions mate .... do you think we should keep bombarding them hoping they get the message so that Bravehounds is one of the finalists? Can't hurt I suppose .... what do you think ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether we can get it to the next stage of voting I have no idea, but if we try we will have done our best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanblue 16,847 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Just a thought chaps, but since this is just the initial nominations phase, I reckon it only needs a handful of votes to get through to the next stage - unless we get disqualified for vote-rigging!

Are they the right people to want Bravehound put forward ? ? That is a slight concern right enough Bud ..... hopefully the committee are already aware of Bravehound and the good work they are doing. My thoughts on the matter are that they will see a dedicated force seeking to put Bravehound out front as a meaningful candidate rather than a meaningless songster like .... "Paolo Grittini" ??? I will go back to the time we all multi-voted for Joe Garner and lo and behold we got some positive reaction there ..... so with all due respect .... I think it wouldn't do any harm to continue voting till the deadline on Sunday .... even if we don't get to the next round we will have made them well aware of the support Bravehound has in the community. PS.... I also think that the council will be only too happy they got a good response to their community project .... and I'm hoping it will appeal to their better selves.
