DETTY29 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Was Eremenko for me based on the players nominated performances against Hearts..... Come on son, You can't base the POY on 4 games. He couldn't win it as he wasn't nominated, but Kayal's been my PoY. Izaguirre has been the best of the ones that were though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bighusref Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I actually think that Izaguirre is the best player in the league and is a deserved winner. Kayal has done very well, but Izaguirre pips him to the post for me. Goodwillie, I suppose you cannot really argue with it but he is twenty two and is in his fifth year as a pro at United.

The Rev Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Izaguirre is imo the best player in the division, can't argue with that to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartsfc_fan Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Fair enough. I've always wondered why they don't do this at the end of the season. What's to say Izaquirre scores 3 own goals in his next 3 games and loses Celtic the title and Goodwillie punches a referee or something equally stupid on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboinglasgow Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Well done to John McGlynn getting manager of the year, shame it didn't come with winning the league. Seen him linked with the Killie job, could be a good move for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergio Garcia Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 The fact Kayal or Kello werent nominated baffles me. Kayal is the best player in the leage. Out of those nominated its the right decision though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbee647 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 was told by an ex Hearts player the PFA award is a total carve up, Players will vote for there mates at other clubs, Celtic players dont vote for Rangers players Hearts players dont vote for Hibbys etc etc, the only real award worth winning is the Football Writers award, the original and oldest award won By Sandy Jardine in 1986 and Craig Gordon in 1996. The fact there are probably more old firm supporting players going about shows by the way an old firm player will win this award every year. the young player is a different situation as its mostly Scottish kids who are nominated and the old firm dont play so many young players.

Not many but there will be hundreds of Celtic fans at other clubs, and to re enforce this , on 606 , robbie savage made exactly the same point with regards to the English PFA awards as well, players vote for mates or a player with there favourite club, check your records to see how many non old firm players have won the main award, it's a worthless pot in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
