And fully deserved too. Obvious choice for me anyway.

No other player came close in my view. He should be a candidate for Premiership player of the year too. Consistently excellent.

The most foregone conclsuion of all time probably - thoroughly deserved.

He also made it clear that he has been told he won't be captain. Stan wants an outfield player. I'd say it might be the Honey Monster.

Congratulations Shay, the only player who I remember clapping the crowd at the end of the Swiss game. A brilliant keeper and seemingly a lovely bloke as well, fair play.

Recorded the programme and watched uit last night.
Anyone think it was a fast paced, slick and snappy affair and there was little in the way of silly talk and BS. Throw in a bit of the interactive ie. that trip to Germany and make the TV viewers involved.
Having Sharon Shannon and Mundy was a cool idea too.:)
