With 51% of the main end of season forum vote, the big defender - an ever present in all our 56 games of this season - wins the Gersnet Forum PotY vote for season 2020/21.

 

I'm currently having a new crystal decanter and glasses commissioned to be presented to Connor over the summer (he's getting married next week) so I'm sure we'll all look forward to that when it happens.  If you'd like to contribute to the cost then please get in touch via PM (absolutely no obligation of course).

 

Out of interest, in terms of the PotY race that we were running based on match-by-match votes, Ryan Kent was the defacto winner of that with 8 MotM awards followed by Glen Kamara and James Tavernier who both had 7 awards each.

 

Kent also won 11.7% of the total votes cast across the season with 11.95% votes of cast for Kamara and 10.65% votes cast for Tav.  Kamara was placed in the top 3 most often (19 times) followed by Kent (16) and Steven Davis (14).  As such you could conceivably make the case for the Finnish midfielder as our most effective player.

 

FWIW, Connor Goldson won 3 man of the match awards and could only muster 4.92% of votes cast.  It's interesting that people seem to have gone for his consistency over the whole season in the main final vote.  Interestingly, Tav won all his 7 MotM awards by mid-December so there's no doubt his injury two months later where he missed ten games certainly may have cost him our prestigious prize.

Well deserved, although all the contenders could easily have won it, an indication of how consistent we have been this season, strolled the league

Finally, after a somewhat understandable delay due to various pandemic reasons, we've managed to present Connor Goldson with his prize for last season's PotY award.  Thanks to @Scott7, @Yorkie Bear, @Bluedelland @blueflagfor their contributions to the beautiful crystal and to everyone else for their continued support of our website. 

 

Shout out to the @RangersFCSLOand Nick Thomson at Rangers for their help in making sure Connor received his award.
