PFA Player of the Year

[fowlerisgod]

What a load of crap that is.

 

Giggs will win it. He shouldn't do and I hope he doesn't but they will feel 'sorry' for him and give him it.

[Maldini]

I got Giggs at 15/1 last week so I'm hoping the hairy fucker gets the nostalgia vote.

 

Anyone else get a piece of this? He's 1/8 favourite now, must be the PFA staff banging a load of cash on him. I've €20 on it at 15/1

Yes Giggs is still favourite and all the papers today seems to indicate that it will go to him.

 

Andy Gray on the last word said he's only started 12 games this season.

Lots of players need cattle prods to do anything like bother to vote. They should call it player of the season and do the voting in May and announce it on the eve of the cup final. Or call it player of the year and announce it in December. I gather the PFA have to practically force some teams to get their written nominations in at the last minute, even though most players these days are emailing, twittering and go knows what non-stop. It's hoplessly inefficient and a bit shambolic in terms of results.

Where can I bet on Howard Webb?

[bobhorse]

How the fuck Giggs can win player of the year when he isnt good enough to start most of United's games is beyond me

we know he is comming to the end of his career but its shit if it is a sentiment vote in time gone by he has indeed been the player of ther season but not this year and it would be an insult to a great player to give him it with a sympathy vote

[Rush 346]

Massive pro-giggs articles by Olver Kay in the Times yesterday, looks like its nailed on

[gkmacca]

I'm sure the press are briefed privately a few days before so that the hacks can write and file their celebratory articles for publication on Monday morning.

[TommyW]

12 games? absolute joke

 

you can bet they'll reform the voting process next year, this result will leave the PFA an even bigger laughing stock

[Carradona]

When are the awards?

[ToxtethTerror]

If Giggs had any shame he'd not accept it. 12 starts and winning player of the year is a joke.

[Beardsley-arrrr]

What a piss-take that sham of an award is. The hairy fucking baboon has only started 12 league games and scored one goal!!! The Doss has a better record than that!!

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Official, the Salford Monkey has won it. What a joke. Ashley Young is the YP of the year which is probably fair enough.

[Carradona]

Oh, was it on tonight?

[Ted]

Serious? Giggs won it?

[ToxtethTerror]

HaHaHa.

[philyhamann]

Hahahaha

 

what the fuck?

[Lanksy]

Absolute joke. 12 games.

 

Why not give him a seperate lifetime achievment award.

[torahboy]

Fucking hell! What about Dean Windass? Every bit as mobile and as big a presence as Danny Wilson's lad this season. Is it because he is pretending not to be black?

[snez1]

Pathetic. Legend and a great great player, but there are 30 players more deserving of that particular award.

 

Yossi has been more influential on the Premiership than him this season.

[Crazyhorse7778]

Hahahahaha.

[23_Carra_Gold]

I feel Xabi Alonso has performed better then all 6 nominees this year.

[RedKnight]

Bizarre, but why would every voting pro come to the same conclusion that Giggs has either a) done enough to merit it or b) deserved the sympathy vote? It's not like Giggs has torn up any trees this year, seems a bit odd to me how everyone suddenly decided to vote for a player that's hardly played. Dodgy.

[RobbieOR]

Sky haven't said anything thus far.
