Player of the year, nominations thread

right lads seeing as we are approaching this time of the season, I am been appointed by the fan club to organise the player of the year award…The way it will work is that everybody will name who they feel were the three best players for TFK over the season, the 6 players to receive the most nominations will then contest the final vote…

Players cannot nominate themselves, no matter how well they have played or how big their ego…

Players:
Bandage
Rocko
Farmer
Jugs
Smelly
Clarkeycat
Ledge
StevieG
BrianTinnion
Fats
Cesc4
Arshavin23
KC

If I have left anyone out please let me know…

Post your nominations on this thread please…

Forgot to add that nominations will close next wednesday the 12th at 2 p.m…The player of the year will then hopefully be announced on the last day of the season

Good idea Pukey. Huge responsibilty for you.

I’ll be nominating:

Bandage - our defensive record speaks for itself. Some crucial saves during the season and his absence in Houston was keenly felt at the time.

Smelly - the hardest working player by a country mile. Has been absolutely crucial to our footballing style.

Cesc4 - goals change games. Cesc4 gets you goals.

I’ll go with:

Cesc4 - 26 goals (according to himself last night). Nuff said. Form has improved once it became apparent that we were in an title race.

Rocko - immense in the first half of the Sophis game which was the critical game on this run. The leader of the team.

Third player is a toughie. Bandage is the one player we have that truly cannot be replaced and has been solid this season. Smelly has been superb all season though - I’ll go for him.

The season seems to have turned around since Arshavin23 replaced that pussy boy Ledge. So he will get my number 1 nomination.

From reading Rockos match reports, Rocko seems to be a class player so he will get no. 2.

  1. Arshavin23
  2. Rocko
  3. Bandage

I disagree with awards before the season has ended. I’m focused solely on winning the league.

But it needs to be decided while performances are fresh in people’s minds…

I can’t choose between Ledge and Arshavin23

I am going to go for:

Tinnion
Rocko
Cesc4

This is perfect, echoing the EPL POTY polls in so far as the voting is done before the players can truly let the side down, just like Tinnion is doing with his no show this week.

So for me its

  1. Tinnion.
  2. Rocko.
  3. Arshavin23

Like Bandage I also feel this a little premature but here are my nominations;

  1. Cesc4 - a constant menance, the wexican gooner has been a revelation with a phenomenal goals per game ratio. Some of his finishing has been top class and he is a deserving winner of this award.

  2. Bandage - possibly the greatest goalkeeper in Astro league football right now. Always seems to intimidate his opposition strikers and his instructions from the back have been instrumental in TFKs success to date.

  3. Rocko - his first half performance against Sophis was colossal. A leader of men and as his name suggests, the Rock on which TFK was built. Firm but fair, the skipper has got a presence about him and commands respect. A Brian Clough in making!

I agree, thinly veiled TFK is a team of woofters post from arshavin23 there.

Apart from Tinnion, In Tinnion we Trust.

I’ll go with the following:

  1. Cesc4 - finishing has been impeccable recently and looks to be enjoying his football again. I’d mostly put this down to his close personal friendship with Arshavin23, it’s no coincidence that he’s hit his best run of form since Rocko splashed the cash on the perma-tanned midfielder.

  2. Bandage - a key player given that Rocko doesn’t believe in signing reserve keepers. Has been solid all season.

  3. Smelly - the duracell man.

What? The deadline on the post above is Thursday, 13th. I was going to nominate tomorrow morning once I mull things over a bit more. Fucking farce.

Edit: Puke changed the date back to the 12th. Scandalous.

Tinnion is a shoo in.
