http://www.football-league.co.uk/fo...25/top-10-players-of-the-year_2293334_2324305 In many ways I'm happier to see #10 on there (Derry for those of you too lazy to open the link!) than I am #1. He deserves it.
I was gobsmacked to read that Lee Camp gets in the top10, if there has to be a keeper Kenny, Smiechal many more but Camp, phew, ahem!
If Derry hadn't squeezed in as number 10 there would only have been one player from the runaway leaders, ridiculous! Noone from the best defence in the league, ridiculous!
I don't know. Looking down the list, I can't argue with the inclusion of most from a player of the season point of view. Sinclair, Holt, Graham, Snodgrass etc.... They've all made an impact haven't they? Being a largely superficial, striker-orientated poll, I'm both surprised and kind of chuffed to find that an anchor man like our Shaun floated to the surface. He's a thinking man's player. Not in the slightest bit interested in personal glorification or making headlines. HOWEVER, I have to agree with johnjohn above, the logic dissipates when it comes to Peter Camp. His legend cites 12 clean sheets as the reason for his inclusion... 'PADDY!! - how many clean sheets have you got?' 20 what?!!
Blimey....has Lee's brother played this season? How did we not notice??? LOL! I still say that I'm gobsmacked not to see Faurlin in there. Best-kept secret of the division? Sorry Brix!
Yeah... sorry, Lee! Point taken Mango. Late night! Peter Camp was a bloke I used to work with (couldn't catch a bus, let alone keep a clean sheet!).
