Who's YOUR Player of The Year ?

**sonofstan** · 15/10/2009, 2:38 PM

Hard to choose between Conor Powell and Brian Shelley for us, with honourable mentions to Keegan and Oman -the last named is definitely 'most improved'. When mcGuinness took his self- imposed leave of absence, most of us felt he'd walk back into the side, but Oman claimed the place and has held it ever since.

I'll pick Powell, because he's younger, and if he continues to develop at the rate he's going, he'll play for Ireland.

Barry Ryan.

Cretaro for me. Honourable mention for Dick Brush for saving our bacon on a number of occasions - we could have been bottom at one point were it not for him. Boco has been great all season too, but I think everyone else has generally underperformed.

Outside my club, I've been impressed by a number of players - Stephen Bradley, Barry Murphy (best keeper this season imo), Pat Sullivan, John Russell, Conor Powell and Gary Deegan (seriously needs to stop getting sent off, though!)

Alan McNally, rock at the back.

**Acornvilla** · 15/10/2009, 4:32 PM

brian mccarthy and tom king to draw the longford one!

Brian Shelley
Paul Keegan
Connor Powell

In that order.

Gary Twigg will run away with the main awards particularly if Rovers win the league.

Players who have impressed me -

Dundalk - Michael Daly,Chris Turner, Shaun Kelly and Liam Burns
Drogheda - Connor Kenna and Alan McNally
Shamrocks- Craig Sives, Spephen Bradley, Stephen Rice and Twigg.
Bohs - Conor Powell, Gary Deegan, Brian Shelley, Ken Oman, Paul Keegan, Paddy Madden, Brian Murphy (hell most of them except Crowe)
Cork - Danny Murphy, Billy Dennehy
Derry- Gerard Doherty, Eddie McCallion
Galway- John Russell, Shane Guthrie, Vinny Faherty
Sligo- Raf Cretaro, Gavin Peers, Richard Brush
St Pats - Jason Gavin, Ryan Guy
Bray -Chris O'Connor and Dave Webster

Still a big bunch of crucial games to go.......

Shane Treacey.

Not the big impact of Steve-O, but consistently good all through the season, weighing in with his fair share of goals too

**Dunny** · 15/10/2009, 6:11 PM

Chris Turner

**dfx-** · 15/10/2009, 6:36 PM

Craig Siv-ez is, but Twigg shall win. Best goal would be the header in Galway

**superfrank** · 15/10/2009, 6:47 PM

I'd agree with Skippy being our best.

Also, what's the story with pronouncing Sives' surname? I pronounce it like "fives". I don't get how TG4 keep calling him Si-vez.

It's pronounced Si-vez

McAllister for us and the First Division overall.

**Dunny** · 15/10/2009, 7:47 PM

"Bisto" not the best anymore?

No Derry player has played consistently well. Just that kind of season.

Doherty probably best of a mediocre bunch, but not as good as last year IMO.

Until the Dungannon case I would've nominated the club solicitor...

**MariborKev** · 15/10/2009, 8:06 PM

Gary McCabe of Bray has really impressed me this year.

Stephen Rice has been Rovers best player by a country mile.

**sheao** · 15/10/2009, 9:13 PM

Our player of the year has to be Danny Murphy or Dan Murray. Through all the off the field problems here at City they have remained loyal to the club and have been consistent for us on the pitch.
