Gus & Dunk up for award

Gus has been nominated for FL Manager of the Year & Dunk for FL Young player of the Year. Both are up against their Palarse rival. If they win will other clubs be even more intersted in them?

 

[Knightsworld]

Here we go, another 20 pages of my club is better than yours bollox.

 

[Mr Smggles]

I'm guessing zaha is up for the young player award? I can't see Dunk beating him to that tbh. Dougie has no chance ahead of Gus.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

It would be quite funny if Clark won.

Whats the FULL shortlist?

Surely Jordan Rhodes is the FL young player of the year. He scored about FIFTY goals in 2011, and about 10 in three games for Scotland U-21s

 

[Simster]

Freedman has done a good job, sadly. That Carling Cup semi with a victory over Man Utd, and he's turned perrenial relegation fodder into a mid table side that is only six or seven points behind much bigger clubs like Brighton, Leeds and Blackpool.

 

[Kumquat]

Is Dunk up for the keepy uppy award too?

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Dunk is a hot prospect and being watched by a lot of clubs, this will only add to his high profile.

 

[severnside gull]

Will make no difference at all (although I agree Dunk won't get the award ahead of a striker - always a higher profile when it comes to winning the prizes).
As for Gus - it is results on the pitch that will make him attractive to other clubs.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Freedman has done a good job, sadly. That Carling Cup semi with a victory over Man Utd, and he's turned perrenial relegation fodder into a mid table side that is only six or seven points behind much bigger clubs like Brighton, Leeds and Blackpool.

Yes, Lennie Lawrence has done very well.

This part is not apparently relevant. The award is for a SPECIFIC achivement:

The Football League | News | FL Awards | FL Awards News | FL Awards News | Further shortlists announced for League Awards 2012

Gus Poyet (for winning the league 1 title)
Dougie Freedman (for narrowly beating Manchester United's reserves in a tin-pot cup United couldn't give a shit about)
Lee Clark (for setting a league record for unbeaten games, if you ignore the one game in the middle that really mattered)

Has to be Gus.

Mind you, having noted that Portsmouth are one of the nominees for the '(Shafting your) Community Club of the year', I'm not sure I can be bothered to take these awards very seriously...

 

[Return of the Rev]

Not sure dunk will be getting an award

 

[Red'n'Blue]

Phillips will win i think.

I see there is a FAN of the year category. Next year I shall be nominating [MENTION=2422]Tony Meolas Loan Spell[/MENTION] for his services to supafandom and Vicunte shitstirring.

 

[fly high]

Phillips will win i think.

have England made a big mistake by letting him switch to Scotland?

 

[JBizzle]

Sorry to say I think Zaha will win because attacking players have more flair and there was more transfer interest.

Dunk has had a extraordinary season given that its his 1st but defenders rarely get the final prize (Cannavarro excepted)

 

[Glenn-Murray]

Zaha should win his award by a long way.

Dougie will have no chance of winning the award (not to say that I think Poyet is better, just that he has achieved more in a longer time). Clarke SHOULD get it for the incredible unbeaten run despite the sacking.

Williams is the best player in the apprentice award and should win that too, although his injury may have held him back.

have England made a big mistake by letting him switch to Scotland?

It was his choice in the end and Fifa are set to give the nod making it official
