Player of the Season,

[Alan W (GNFC)]

I guess we'll be getting voting slips on Tuesday or the following Saturday so who do those fans who attend games think should get the award?

 

My vote will go to Chris McPhee, who has been Mr Consistency, despite playing in positions that no-one, not even himself I suspect, would have envisaged when he joined us.

 

Others to consider in my view are Akinde (probably not played enough games, but made a big impact when he did), Cronin (another excellent season for him), Paul McCarthy (Mr Solid at the back when he's played), James Smith (certainly contender for the most improved player), Stacy Long (always buzzing around the pitch - when he's good, the Fleet are certainly at their best as well - and the goalscoring helps).

 

Others such as Rickets and Opinel have had solid seasons as well, but Rickets again probably hasnt played often enough, and Sachalosesmarks (unfortunately) for his hot headedness.

 

Any comments from anyone else?

 

[Stu M]

McPhee for me, closely followed by Long and then a list much as you have it Alan...

[Jeff]

It's a difficult one this year isn't it?

 

I'd like a coaches selection button so that I could go for Luke Moore.

[KShep]

My vote would go to Chris McPhee. The 'We all dream of a team of Chris McPhees' chant hasn't really taken off yet (but it will in due course!), however he has excelled in every position he has played in. His finishing has been slightly wayward, but for effort and efficacy, no-one ranks higher than him. If and when McCarthy retires, I think he must be a front-runner for the captaincy, should we keep him.

[Special K]

Oh it is a tough decision this year. My choice would either be Stacy Long or Lance Cronin. I will probably vote for Lance but only just. Chris McPhee also deserves a mention as he too has had a damn fine season.

[Hannah]

Lance Cronin. The best goalkeeper in the league. So many fantastic saves this season, so many penalties saved. He gets my vote!

 

Runner up, Stacy Long.

[MrMushroom]

Based on pure contribution and consistency I would go for either Lance Cronin or Paul MacCarthy. Based on excitement and entertainment value I would definitely go for Sacha.

[Riverview Supporter]

Im torn between McPhee and Lance. For me lances two saves in the first leg and the one on one in the first half of the second leg were his highights and ultimatley got us to the arch.

 

McPhee though has been willing to change roles , scored a few and created a few yet happy to shaw up defence when require.

 

James Smith for most improved player.

 

Mark Ricketts deserves a mention as I believe his introduction at Aldershot when we were under the cosh was pure genius by liam and his subseqant performance put some stability in a tiring and presssured defence.

 

Twat of the season. Dixie Dean for looking like Fish from marillion and running onto the pitch at Northwich , though I do forgive him and if he comes down against Oxford , ill have a beer with the bloke.

 

Disapointment of the Season:- Paul Jarvis`s beard. Resembling a shredded wheat stuck to his chin. Glad you shaved it off paul.

[eufckev]

Lance, Stacy and Chris its boiled down to for me. I'll be deciding based upon the remaining games.

 

(I might voite Nade when he scores the winner at Wembley )

Surprised you didn't go for.... someone else.

[Slartibartfast]

Chris McPhee gets my vote for all the reasons already mentioned.

 

Totally agree with James Smith as most improved player.

 

I suspect that Big John would be a shoe in for young player of the season which if true would be a pity because Micheal Bostwick has been fantastic all season.

 

Hope Liam can get a few more to sign up for nest season(s).

[Richard C]

Mcphee for me... its tough call but he has played everywhere and doesnt look out of place in any position... im sure he could do centre back too!

[reevsie]

Be careful everyone. Traditionally the player voted as player of the season normally starts the next season woefully and is sold/moved on ( Chris Moore for example)

[Hannah]

In that case; I vote Nade!

[Stonebridge Red]

Player of the year for me is Stacy Long, he is the team playmaker, involved in pretty much all the decent football we play, he also shows passion for the cause, encourages and slates players accordingly and should really be Captain.

[fatbury]

for sheer effort and versatility .. has to be Chris McPhee .. although Stacy Long and Lance Cronin and the every dependable Paul McCarthy have all been superb - special mention to Sacha, Smudger, Bosty and Bazza - once again all superb - god i love our players

 

Young player of year John Akinde .. no questions asked

[Unrecognized Genius]

I'll go with Chris, closely followed by Paul & Sacha.

 

Ask most of our opponents though & they'd probably say it has to be Sacha and add he's the best left back in the league by a mile.

[Emily]

It's definitely a close call between Sacha and Chris, but Sacha edges it for me because of his sheer passion.

 

Let's hope we manage to keep both of them next season

[BustaGut]

As much as I agree with most of what has been said above, I think we may miss Neil Barratt if he was to leave.
