PSOTY - 2024 - PRESENTATION
9th March 2025
Due to the decline in entries and member participation PSOTY is now over as there are no volunteers to take it on.
Just a suggestion, we can hold a follow on to PSOTY and look at the winners over the last 15 - 20 years and vote for an overall "Supreme Pub Sign of the Year". I will work on this.
Pictured is the presentation at The Straw Hat, winning sign submitted by Jackie Wylde and from left to right Craig (Landlord) Peter Gorman (Organiser) and Chairman David Cole.
