Vote for Kovacs to win walk-on player of the year award
http://burlsworthtrophy.com/ click on the link to vote for Kovacs so he can win the Burlsworth Trophy. It's given to the best walk-on player of the year. Right now, Kovacs only has 1% of the votes and Mcgloin leads with 44% and there's only 3 days left to vote. Kovacs really deserves this award so it'd be great if everyone could vote.

"*The Fan Vote counts as 5% during each round of voting and it is combined with the results from the Selection Committee. Fans can cast their vote for the nation’s most outstanding player who began his career as a Walk-on once per day. Fan Vote totals are cleared after each round."

Not sure what constitutes "each round" but 5% of one round (assuming there are multiple rounds) may not be the dagger it appears to be. Kovacs should win this thing hands down.

A quick survey of the user listings show 13,424 users with accounts (30 per page x 447 full pages +14 on the last one). Obviously, many of them are users who either post infrequently or are on some level of Bolivian, but yeah, this board could definitely be a force in voting. 

That being said, I managed to vote before the site crashed.
