Duncan Edwards 2,259 Posted April 25 If Kenny McLean is our player of the season then what a damning indictment of our campaign, recruitment and both on and off pitch management. This further demonstrates just how far we have fallen and that the supporters, like the club, are now perfectly accepting of mediocrity as the norm. Etc etc 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a **** season it’s been-it’s not as if we are likely to make the play-offs or anything.Even if we do the one player who has been on the pitch throughout clearly hasn’t contributed to it. Let’s all stamp our feet because we didn’t get the person we wanted. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conrad 178 Posted April 25 3 hours ago, GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary said: Clearly your opinion was 'wrong' too...? Is anyone who voted for anyone else 'wrong' Did the 'majority' of fans vote for Mclean? Only 40% may have done with the rest carved up between 3 or 4 others Just like this and any of our other Governments then. Perhaps only 40% (who actually knows) voted for previous winners, didn't they deserve it either? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleyellowbirdie 2,576 Posted April 25 Not only pleased for Kenny, but hopefully Sara will be so frustrated at coming so close to getting player of the season that he'll stick around another season to have another go. 😎 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

East Rider 551 Posted April 25 Delighted for him, got my vote as well. Been a very decent player for us despite the fashion at certain times by some, to join the noisy group and criticise his every move. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Worthy Nigelton 1,058 Posted April 25 He's been fine in the sense he hasn't been awful. But that's because he just plays as a sweeper. I could do that. He contributes nothing offensively and has no instincts defensively. He basically looks good because he's better on the ball than our centre backs, which he bloody ought to be. How can people think he deserves it more than any of Sara, Rowe, Sargent or Sainz. There are one or two others that haven't been as good as those four but have been at least as good as Kenny (Gunn, Stacey, Nunez). Absolute joke. I will not be getting there early to see him pick up the award! I just can't get my head round a fan going through the candidates in their head, which for 95% of fans would include at least two of those I've mentioned and then goes 'yep, Rowe did score loads but Kenny has been so brilliantly solid and has played every game. I'm picking Kenny.' Or 'yes, Sara has got over 20 goal involvements this season and occasionally has touches of absolute class but Kenny has been captain and that counts for a lot in my book. I'm picking Kenny.' Idiots. Nicely put on a WhatsApp group I'm in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank god your WhatsApp group doesn't represent the majority of our fanbase, and it's funny how the fans opinion coincides with players, ex players, managers and ex managers. In fact Wagner today complimented the fanbase for being more football intelligent in their decision to pick Kenny. I'm not convinced your WhatsApp group is the intelligent one 😉😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hideously put, to my mind Whatsapp Willy complains that Kenworth is POTS only because he’s the captain & a sweeper, then goes on to suggest eye-catching players in attacking positions should get the award instead, for doing their jobs well. No acknowledgement of his personal playing qualities, season-long consistent contribution, leadership and attitude, long(ish) service to the club, civic mayoralty in his spare time, or impressive performance in the variety of roles he’s been asked to take on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
