Bit off topic but at what point do you become an exile and therefore eligible to win PoTY?
Is an exile a poster who lives outside Derbyshire and does not attend matches, often due to geographic location or canbearsedness?
Servicemen season-ticket holders like myself and Tommo who live on base during the week but travel home for the weekend to attend matches, could we be considered exiles?
What about Yorkshire's Spart or Shrewsbury's Vidal, they have season tickets which is why, generally, I wouldn't call them exiles.
Oddly when Tommo goes on his next deployment and has to give up his ticket I would then class him as an exile and therefore as I say eligible to win PoTY.
If Spart gave up his ticket he would be eligible, he wouldn't get any votes but he would be eligible.
It's just something of a legal point I would like to see cleared up well in advance of this years debac..er I mean vote.
Not a Rowett thread

To be a true exile you have to move to new zealand.

All those fruitless years touting Iwas have left you totally deluded Rameses, if you think you have a better chance with 666
Stick with tommo, he's a proper fan !
By the way, I have 3 in the frame at this stage, only one of which is an exile, by your definition

Well, breaking the news of Mc getting sacked and now PoTY2017.
And all this while doing my bit to balance the UK trade deficit and reaching out to the commonwealth to ease the path the stupid Brexiters have put us on.

Congratulations on POTY 2017, I missed the vote, my apologies.
Buying British...that's the spirit we need. Who came up with the term `Common Wealth' hardly seems appropriate given its history
