Calling all Kickette Soldier-Girls
We know, we know, self-promotion is so totally WAG-like, but we cannot help the gauche on this occasion.
Kickette has been nominated for the Best UK Blog in the 2007 Weblog Awards.
Dear readers, please put down your nail files, chocolate covered strawberries and/or the hair clip you were using to break into the house of your favourite baller and click over to vote for us to win this mofo.
This is serious, Kickettes. Look at Victoria Beckham’s face. This is even more serious than her facial expression; more serious than the fact that this image/video is being used as promotion for the Spice Girls concerts or albums or underwear or something and – hello? – we certainly hope to God this isn’t the campaign for the under 16s.
We’re currently losing to a whole range of other nominees who we are quite certain would not be able to identify Elen Rives from 50 paces. Do you want these sorts of folks taking the trophy? They probably don’t even own a pair of hair-straighteners.
We thank you in advance for your clicking power. Voting is open until Nov 8, so please make it part of your daily routine.
Kisses!

I can’t believe some dull-ass blog about a referendum is beating Kickette at the moment. Come on people, exercise those clickers!!
I’ll be voting once a day through Nov 8th <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/wink.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="wink" style="border:0;" />
THANKS everyone, the support is muchly appreciated and so sweet of you all.
I have all my boys from my soccer messageboard voting for you as well
And we can vote once a day. Which I’m doing since I”ve never even heard of those other blogs but I do come to this one at least once a day!
Done—and the rules don’t restrict Yanks from voting!
You’re getting my votes from Texas, and you’re in the lead!
Just voted. I love your blog and am reading through your archives (when really I should be working).
just voted! kickette is in the lead wahey!
I just voted and Kickette is kicking it right now in the #1 spot with 20.2% of the votes.
I’ll vote daily and pass along the info on the other sites I frequent.
I second what Sara says. You guys help me get through the everyday monotony of corporate America!
I just voted. I hope you gals win, your blog always makes me laugh out loud. It’s joyous stuff. But what makes the blog are some of the comments from your visitors. I hope when you win we all get an invite to your award party at the Met Bar <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/wink.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="wink" style="border:0;" />
Have told everyone on my two forums. (yes. they are mine.) They will vote for you.
Hi, Kickette – good luck. The big boys seem to have the game wrapped up but we still have the minor places.
love your site; had to vote for you. keep up the fantastically funny commentaries!
OOps – you’re neck and neck with the leaders – funny, I didn’t realize you were a 200 000 uniques a month blogger. Sorry.
Just voted right now Kickette is in the lead xxx
voting now!!!
kickette, you have my vote.
Just discovered your snarky paradise a little while back and now cannot stay away, so I definitely popped over and began the voting!
This is how much I love you, Kickette – I’m taking time from the Arsenal – Man United game to vote for you. <ROOney!! ROOney!!>
WAHOO!!! Go Kickette
*votes*
My loyalties lie with the ladies that know their ‘ballers .. and their WAGs .. and their fashion disasters.
Consider it done!
Oh yeah, this blog is TOP!
I’ve asked my readers to come defend your honor.
(And that photo is probably the creepiest I’ve seen in a long time.

Voted!
(Though I can’t think that video of Victoria is any worse than the numerous Britney Spears dancing on a pole, etc videos that are out there.)
still at work, missed the arsenal-man united game *starts crying*, but right now i will take the time to vote for the greatest blog around!
