The 2010 Knitwear & Croissants bullshit awards - categories & nominees

Yes, it's that time of year where we look back at the previous year and pay homage to those who've 'entertained' us... there'll be separate awards for the Sunday Supplement boys & the SSN reviewers as it's only fair they all get due credit for 12 months worth of professional pony.

Award categories:

1. The most horribly wrong, cringeworthy, embarrassing statement of the year award
2. The "I'll just say something controversial for the sake of it" award
3. The "never mind smoke, I'll use my full tongue" arse-kissing award
4. And finally (and slightly implausibly) the sensible, reasoned argument award 

My thoughts on the nominees as follows:

1. Rob Beasley - "Mancini sat in the ground when Hughes sacked"; Neil Custis - "Fergie's warchest about to swing open" ; Darren Lewis - "England cricket team rubbish" ; Steve Curry - "Joe Cole a hero on Merseyside after one and a half games". 
2. Open to suggestions, Neil Ashton (by request) 'club without class', Oliver Holt must feature surely?
3. too many to select from, Oliver Holt prominent though with his one-man campaign concerning John Terry and the England captaincy. More views please.
4. Very tricky this one. Suggestions welcomed...
