ok how about some nominations for player of the year,mine would be.......1 tommy barrett,2 robbie kelleher,i know he hasn't scored a lot but he's been a handful for every defence he's played against and 3 paul finnucane hasn't been spectacular but is mister consistent
1. Tommy Barrett
2. Robbie Kelleher
3. Noel Mooney (I kid you not folks) :)
We're talking footballer of the year. Then it has to be Jamie Nolan.
Tommy Barret all the way for me too.
oh give up the ghost would ya:rolleyes:Quote:

I like Tobin even for a player being played out of position but then shur arnt they all :D Barrett and Kelliher will be high up too but rem if ppl are voting for a young player rem we do have an under 21 team and my vote (not trying to influance anyone here ;) ) would go to Ger Bourke.
Barrett by a street. Possibly McGrath and/or Buckley had they been around for a bit longer. Kelleher and Finucane worthy mentions too.
As for Nolan... one good run per game does not a footballer make. A lazy, uncommited waste of talent on the other hand... :rolleyes:
gael were you not part of the posse calling for mick aherne to be played?Quote:

Okay then. Maybe we can compromise on CP O'Brien
I'm going for Robbie Kelleher because he busts a gut in every single game. He's added a couple of goals as well lately so hopefully getting the balance right in his overall game is beginning to come together for him. Tommy Barrett a close second, with Noel Mooney third for me.
Young player of the year I can't comment on bacuse Jamie Nolan is sh!te and I haven't seen the U21's in action.
By the way - what age is Robbie? And Tommy? Do they qualify for Young player too? I presume young player means u-21 (but not necessarily an u-21 player, if you know what i mean).:ball:
I think Robbie is around the 21/22 mark. (I'm counting under 23 as young player for the purposes of voting :o )Quote:

Think Barrett is 25? Kelleher... 22 I think... I was using U-23 as my guage too.Quote:

tommy barrett gets my vote
1.Finny
2.Barrett
3.Bubble
Pardon my ignorance but which player labours under this nickname? Is there some previously unrevealed relationship between Paul Tobin and ex-player Anthony 'Bubbles' Tobin or something? :confused:Quote:
