    Supporters Club

    Lads, the supporters club has been active for a while now but does anyone think that a bit more could be done? It's great that buses are organised for away trips and end of season awards but maybe something on a more regular basis like monthly club awards could be done?

    We do end of season awards. Last season Quigley was given a plaque for player of the year and Hurley for newcomer of the year (no point in a young player of the year). There's other awards too like goal of the season.

    I know that but I was suggesting that we have a player of the month award and maybe others.

    I've always thought player of the month awards were redundant. Maybe in a league, where you've a hundred or more players to pick from, but saying, "Congratulations, you played the best football out of the eight players who started all of the last four games," just doesn't seem worth the bother to me.

    Don't forget that some months might not have any home games. In this case; 'Congratulations, the newspaper report said that you played well.'.

    Even though there were those amongst us who believed it should have been a dark young midfielder....

    We didn't really get that many votes for the end of year ones & a rig was attempted as far a I recall so I don't seehow a monthly one could hold itself together.
