“He Got Us Out Of The **** Award” - Alfie May . Runner Up - Nathan Jones “Dud Of the Season” - Appleton. Runner Up - Appleton . “He Couldn’t Catch A Cold Award” - Harry Isted. Runner Up - AMB we badly need two new keepers. “He’s Even Slower Than Elfs Getting A Round In Award” - Terrell Thomas. Runners Up - Edun, Gillesphey and Fraser.
"He got us out of the **** award" I agree with May & Jones, though as Jones in involved then a draw might be more appropriate. "Most likely to drop us in the **** with the EFL award" Andy Scott "Football achievement - close but no cigar award" The CAFC women's team.
If Dobbo had been allowed to leave in January he'd have been runner-up. Purely as a stopper at CB he's been OK, you just don't want to see him with the ball at his feet, or in the opposition half.
Well done to Alfie May & Daniel Kanu for last night’s awards. There’s no doubt we would have been relegated without May’s goals this season - something a couple of stats obsessed fans on ITTV always seemed keen to gloss over. Interesting that the SMT/ owners made the fans attending pay £55+ for the player’s meal this season. I wouldn’t have bought any of them a McDonalds kids meal. Sounds like Nathan Jones rates Alfie May, but they clash. That will need working on - we need both. Looks like there was another unofficial trophy on offer there last night - Fan Brown Noser of the Year. The museum guy had always put up a strong showing in previous years, but it looks as if Swisdom the lawnmower man and friend of every two bob owner put up a strong showing this year. Apparently our piss poor season was due to Sandgaard dragging out the takeover
I was thinking this morning who I would put in third place, who deserved it. I couldn't think of one name.
A bit like the "Dual in the Sun" between Nicklaus and Watson, who finished so far ahead of the rest of the field that Hubert Green, who finished in 3rd place joked "I won! Those guys were playing a different game".
Yeah, but at least it cost him £34M in payments due, for his purchase of The Valley and SL. Any former ITWV’s members can assist me with when the final £17M is due, before Thomas becomes the outright owner ?
Apparently Miles Leaburn spoke to a fan at the POTY dinner and said he would be out until October. A year for a hamstring injury.
Perhaps years ago it would have been a career ending injury. Footballers are fortunate nowadays. If I hurt myself at work and needed a year off to recover, my employer would not wear that. I would certainly be forced to look for another job.
Never known a club like it in terms of attracting injuries which then take an age to sort out. I thought Dr Will Abbott was supposed to be sorting our Medical Dept out.
