Discuss it all you like but you wouldn`t name the winner of a mile race after three laps. It seems to be the norm amongst clubs but aren`t some of the national awards announced at the end of the season?

Ffs the club has asked for us to vote now so it’s being discussed. Is there anything you won’t argue about?

I didn`t say it shouldn`t be discussed. I simply pointed out it seems a wee bit premature especially this season. Am I not allowed to express an opinion?

I tend to agree. There are three or even four candidates who will be poty. However there is a lot of football still to be played and some very important and some season defining ones too..

What an opportunity we missed in 2014.

If Andrew`s injury ain`t to bad and he can score a few more then he`ll win it for sure. Players that bang in goals win prizes, the rest are unsung heroes.

Honestly just shut up at this point, the club put it out, take the fact they didn`t run it by you first to them.

If you could translate your comment into proper English it would help. So many folk on here just can`t handle others expressing a different view from them.

Who are you to tell posters to shut up? The forum actually benefits from people having different opinions. More traffic means more advertising income and I think some of that goes to the club.

Obviously a crazy take, but discussing the POTY because the club have put it out there and the opinion that it is a bit early given the runway left this season are both valid.

I honestly can`t believe that you would come on here with your common sense comments and expect to be taken seriously. Be off with you, they are obviously both in the wrong

Fraser for me, pure class as others have said above. So many other close runners-up though!

This is my signature

We’ve played 31 out of 36 league games surely that’s a large enough sample size? Seems unfair to criticise the club on this one.

Gilmour was my pick closely followed by Fraser.

PFA awards are 2 weeks before the end of the season , and the votes 2-4 weeks before that .

There`s a practical reason why clubs organise these nominations before the end of the season. The players will disappear after the last game and some of them won`t return.

For the last time, I wasn`t criticising anyone. I was simply making the point that it can sometimes be premature to make these judgements before the season ends, especially when there is still a lot to play for. Somebody could do something that makes him a legend for life and miss out on the POTY award!

You actually said it though, it`s "player of the year" not "player of the big game".

Yeah take someone like a Keith Bray for example if he now goes on and scores a hat trick in the semi final wins us all the play off matches with last minute goals then scores a hat trick in the final your still not going to give him POTY. The good thing about doing it the now is you get to look at the full season not at the end when your only focused on what happened at the end. Like when goal of the year was shown I was shocked John Tod’s goal was still in this season felt about last season because of the amount of games we’ve played since then.

Stunned that a harmless throwaway remark is completely misinterpreted and the poster is pounced upon because of who he is rather than what he said.

No wonder I hardly ever post on here. It`s poisonous at times.

Fraser just shades it for me with Gilmour/Todd not far behind.

Also just to add the difference is that this is player of the year so technically runs from when it was last announced so how ever many games before the end of the season to this moment. If it was player of the season then yes it would be too early to run it for the season

Gilmour and Tod Got my vote.
The brilliant thing is the young player of the year has Tod, Abdulai, Mullen, Ngwenya, Fraser, Bray, Turley.. all starting every week (minus bray). We’ve built a great young squad who are only going to be better next year, if we can hang onto them.

Just wanted to share my thoughts on fraser

When we signed edwards he was signed to develop and sell for good profit, when he signed he was raw and had a lot of learning to do, now sadly he got a bad injury and has been kept out of action at charlton, however he wouldve 100% started most games, showcasing his abilty at a higher level

With fraser he has been signed yet again to develop, however he has a much higher ceiling and he has came to us more developed than edwards was

I think fraser can go even further than edwards has and i hope he does as he is a fantastic wee player
