SPFA Player of the Year

[patlowe]

It must be near to that time when the votes are counted for Player of the Year. Who will/should be nominated and do you think any of our lads will be up for it?

McBride and Miller have been excellent at what they do but on a national level, Stokes is the only one who is likely to be a contender IMO.

Given all the crap written about Davis recently, you'd have to think he'll have a chance, along with Boyd and possibly Bougherra?

[Speedway]

Nade :agree:

[zlatan]

Some hun will win it, Stokes may be in for a shout with young player but none of our guys will be near the main prize.

[7Hero]

has to be robbie keane doesn't it ??

[Hibby Bairn]

It will be McGeady, Boyd or Davis. Probably Davis.

Hughes for manager of the Year however. And maybe Wotherspoon for Young player of the year.

[Hibby Bairn]

What Robbie "£195,000 per goal" Keane?

[Westie1875]

Stokes will get YPOTY IMO

[NOLA]

Kris Boyd is a nap.

[Part/Time Supporter]

Michael Stewart (penalty)

:agree:

[blackhibee]

Nade :agree:

My choice too!
:wink:

[James.]

The lad Craig Thomson who turned out for Aberdeen on Wednesday :devil:

I'd say Davis for POTY and Stokesy for YPOTY

Unlikely as i don't think a Rangers player has won it for years. More likely to be Robbie Keane.

[MacBean]

Interestingly, Hibs have had 4 of the past 5 years YPOTY awards! Fletch x 2 Broony and Deek

Agree mate, the year Billy Reid won it, Walter Smith was on track for a domestic treble and I think it was the year of the uefa cup, yet it was given to a first division manager who was on track for the league, At least I think this was the year.



BTW Robbie Keane would be my choice.

[Barney McGrew]

Davis is a stick on, he's come into form at just the right time

[BroxburnHibee]

Davis is a stick on, he's come into form at just the right time

He's hardly POTY - same old story though - the Glasgow rags know exactly when the voting takes place and fill their papers with whoever they're current favourite is (exactly why he's getting a lot of press lately).

Liam Miller has been just as good lately - nowhere near as much press though.

the last recipient of FOTY shows what a pile o kack it is

[marleyhib]

oh for the Scotland World Cup squad to win it again

[Billychaotic182]

Player o the year - Davis
Young Player of the Year - Stokes (Even tho i think Wotherspoon should get it)
Manager O the Year - Yogi

Hibs Overall player o the Year - McBride

Thats how i think it will go

[Kevvy1875]

Best Players in the SPL I have seen this season have been....

Gers, Bougherra, Davis, Boyd
Tic, Mcheaty and......they sold everyone else:agree:
Hibs, Miller, Stokes, McBride
Utd, Webster, Conway, Gomis

The rest?....Mcarthur(Accies), Mehmet(Buddies), O'Brien(Well), Forbes(Well).

Probs a few others but those guys have been really important to their teams this season.

[Ryan91]

Anyone else notice for FotY, in the last 23 years there has only been two players outside of the Ugly Twins to win the award and for Player's Player, not been a winner outside of the Ugly Twins to win the award in 19/20 years.

I do believe the phrase is:

"Get It Sorted Petrie" :grr::wink:

[Hainan Hibs]

Player of the Year - Robbie Keane
Young Player of the Year - Robbie Keane
Manager of the Year - Robbie Keane

It's the only sane choice:agree:

[Hibbie_Cameron]

Player of the Year - Robbie Keane
Young Player of the Year - Robbie Keane
Manager of the Year - Robbie Keane

It's the only sane choice:agree:

Team of the year: Robbie Keane (+10)
Signing of the season: Robbie Keane
Bargin of the Season: Robbie Keane

[iwasthere1972]

No Hibs players have won it so unless we win the league and the Scottish Cup you can stick your hoose on Bet365 that it will be one of the Old Firm.

Can't believe that Jim Duffy (Morton) won it in 1984/85. :dizzy:

[hibiedude]

Bougherra or Davis
