Has to be @Cristiano – even his suits are better than Messi this year. #BallondOr

Is there any more toe-curlingly dull/awkward/weird/elongated awards ceremony in the world than #BallondOr ? GET ON WITH IT.

PLUS! BONUS BALLON D’OR BARTON:
Been sulking all day. Injury has prevented my from going the Balloon Door thing-e-oh tonight. They said i'd pissed it as well. ??

Not sure whether it was my goal from a corner in Europa League or 2 thunderbastards I scored in Champ this season that sealed it for me?
— Joseph Barton (@Joey7Barton) January 13, 2014
Either way be good to see Ronaldo, Ribery or Messi win something for a change. I don't need that gold ball to know I'm 'ze bollocks.'
— Joseph Barton (@Joey7Barton) January 13, 2014
Its not even a good prize anyway. I mean what can you even do with a gold ball. Break your foot if you kicked it! #dustgatherer #balloondoor
