Hibs.net Player of the Year

[hibbie02]

I am not 100% but I don't think we have such a competition. Should we ask for nominations and then run a Poll after New Year? Should we maybe have a few categories?


Best Defender (inc Goalie)
Best Midfielder
Best Attacker
Most Improved
Best Newcomer
Player of the Year
2020 Hall of Fame Nomination



Sometimes on here it feels like we should have "Worst Player of the Year" instead, but anyhoo, a positive idea of the end of the year?

Maybe better done at the end of the season? EG how do you compare Doidge and Nisbet when Nizzie has only played half a season? I suppose you'd still have that issue for season awards given the Jan window, although to a lesser degree. And would loan players count?

[Eyrie]

I agree this is more of an "end of season" idea.

Many years ago Mass Hibsteria had a category called "Player with most room to improve" (or similar wording) instead of worst player.

[Hiber-nation]

I'd say on balance Paul McGinn just shades it this season so far.

Newell has been our best player so far. Hall of fame, Petrie.

Should be end of season not end of year.

[JohnMcM]

I’ll happily do this at the end of the season. Too early now imho.:greengrin

Best Defender (inc Goalie) - Paul Hanlon
Best Midfielder - Joe Newall
Best Attacker - Christian Doidge
Most Improved - Ryan Porteous
Best Newcomer - Kevin Nisbet
Player of the Year - Martin Boyle
2020 Hall of Fame Nomination - Lewis Stevenson (if he isn't in already)


Didn't put same players in both. Player of the year is tough actually. Probably could've gone to a few players. Think Boyle has been good over the course, though.
