gdalli10 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 It’s voted for by players from all four divisions so I’m not sure who you’re venting your frustration at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONeils4oyarder Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 How Campbells name isnt mentioned is unbelievable... ...Kipre has had a bit of bad press at times this season, the odd mistake or red card so can understand that a bit more...but then you see a wee guy at St Mirren on loan from Celtic and you wonder what the fuck goes through peoples minds when they are voting on these things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a player at Arbroath, Elgin or Stranraer form an opinion on the qualities of someone like Lewis Morgan? They dont see him live, they dont see him on the TV...they read about him in the papers though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Do the players from other leagues get a vote on Player's Player of The Year? I was wondering how Brown made the shortlist when you have got to assume that he is hugely unpopular in our league. Maybe the Aberdeen players vote for him....

weeyin Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Most players get along just fine. Even the ones that square up to each other on the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Springs Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Also strange to me that Carson, with 16 shut outs in a bottom six team can’t get quoted for player of the year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Brown won in 2008-9, he must have got his votes from more than Celtic players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunderwell Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 This won't go down well but here goes. I don't think any of our players should be up for an award this season and barring Scott Mckenna in the under 21s, the reality is who has actually had a better season? There are comments about Tierney, who is one of the best hopes this country has in a defence back line for donkeys years. I didn't know Morelos was only 21, Caixinha obviously had him delivering the big Sunday Mexican times up the hill over a few years. But really c'mon I am one the most fervant Motherwell fans, but the reality is that there is a good chance we will finish eighth in the league. There are many arguments for many players who have done more this season than even the guys mentioned. The only hope was at the younger level. I've done it now I'll check the responses in the morning! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yassin Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Morgan is 21, has scored 18 goals from midfield and been the best player in the Championship by all accounts. I think a nomination is fair enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daver Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Tend to generally agree although I thought Campbell might have been in with a good chance. However this is voted for by the players and those at bigger clubs get much more exposure. It's hardly surprising they get more votes as players who aren't in the same division will only see them in highlights or, more likely, televised games. That doesn't explain Morgan though although he does appear to have been the standout player in the Championship so could have picked up a lot of the votes from there.

Yassin Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 McGinn and Tierney are both clearly levels above Campbell,Morgan has had an eye-catching season. Kipre> Mckenna is the only one we really have a case for imo. Edit- fuck sake, no idea how I've mixed up John McGinn and Alfredo Morelos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 My assumption is that the voting has already taken place so there is already a winner, the names quoted today are those finishing in the top four places. It is not as if the PFA has said you can only vote for these four players. It may be that Carson was 5th for POTY and Campbell was 5th for YPOTY. If that was the case then we would all be happy, wouldn’t we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlmostFrazzled Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 How Morelos is up for this beggars belief. He scored a fair few earlier in the season, but the number of high profile sitters he has missed and his general work ethic is woeful. Tierney will win it again even though he's been nowhere near as good as last year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not just how well individual players have performed over a season but what standard of opponents they have faced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a nutshell... ...I'm not sure how the vote is carried out, and who is entitled to a vote, but a player that is playing at a poor level shouldn't be ahead of a younger player who is playing at a higher level. I hope Morgan is as good as the St Mirren fans believe he is, but at 21, hes never played a single minute of top level football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daver Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 St. Mirren did play Aberdeen in the cup but that didn't go too well for them. I wouldn't be surprised if Morgan stays at Celtic and Jack Ross goes down south over the summer and St. Mirren are found out as guff next season. But that's a whole different discussion......
