Did Sky Sports rig the player of the year voting?

BREAKING SUAREZ WAS DECLARED THE WINNER AFTER ALL

Thanks to @FreeSuarez for sending me the video below highlighting the voting issue many Liverpool fans experienced when trying to vote for Luis Suarez in Sky Sports player of the year online poll.

Luis Suarez was leading with a comfortable margin at the time the poll was suppose to close however apparently the poll went into Fergie time and stayed open.

Afterwards anyone who tried to vote for Suarez was unable to vote yet all of the other players worked.
If might sound petty but it is rather suspicious that suddenly a poll breaks when trying to vote for one player and not another. I smell a rat (sorry Mr. Neville, no pun intended).

Jim Boardman from the great blog Anfield Road emailed SkySports about this and this was their reply.

Hello Jim

Thank you for your email.

The Player of the Year poll was conducted for discussion on Goals on Sunday this week.  It was free entry and each user could only vote for a nominated player once. Owing to an error, the poll closed later than planned. There was plenty of time for voting and everyone’s vote counted.
