Thank God Chris doesn't use predictive text when filling out the registration forms then!! We'd be playing the Spanners again next season if we let you loose Seth!!
Flew out on holiday after the Bournemouth game, but have enjoyed reading the reports from all of you lucky enough to have gone along. I think we have a great bunch of lads ((C) Father Ted). Wouldn't be too fussed about whether they're all social extroverts.
Here's to them all being around next season, along with a few quality additions.
Well done Fanny for the kind words and for all the hard work that went into another successful POTY dinner. Thanks for everything you do for our club, you are an inspiration to us all.
Make the most of the close season and enjoy the deserved break so you are fully refreshed for our (hopeful) promotion push next year.
Tina and I look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
I think most of us would have voted Henderson, had he been fit for a whole season. I don't need the statbank to tell me that Cousins gave his all in each game and put in consistently excellent performances when he played in the middle. He adds pace, height, positional sense and decent passing to our midfield.
Isn't it great that we had three good candidates? Other than the 100 point season, we've not had that for years.
Jordan may have shaded it because, "he's one of our own". If Jordan came from Iceland and JBG was "one of our own", JBG may have shaded it. Likewise Henderson.
Anyway, well done to all 3 and particularly Jordan.
Jordan edged it because he was on the front of the season ticket books so the last thing you saw before casting your vote. Classic Derren Brown style subconscious suggestion.
Of all the awards you see or hear about (particularly in the Premiership) - most are meaningless.
But 2 always stand out for me as a true reflection:
The players's player - because they guys alongside you in the team know the whole story,
AND
Supporters' player - because you can't fool the many thousands who watch on a regular basis.
If you look at our past winners, whether our season was good or bad, I think the winner has always been an accurate reflection of the season.
This year, JC had great pressure on him to perform in a changing midfield line-up, with changing tactics and manager. For a young guy, he handled this brilliantly - and is a worthy winner.

My Player of the season was JBG followed by Henderson and then Cousins.
Be interesting to see the Statbank

Well Done Jordan Cousins.
Cousins won 36% of the vote.
Saying you disagree is now pointless.
(And, no, I didn't vote for him!)
Well done, Jordan...
.......or I might be getting confused with some other big election going on...
