It is getting to be the time of year for who has been our player of the season.
I notice a website has already started this, so I will seek your opinions on here.
I will start, my 3 nominations are: -
Okay Y - cos he is just class and this side would be so much poorer without him
Dara O’Shea - has been our best centre back with many different partners though the year. He is willing to put his head where others just think about it. Hope he is with us for many years to come.
But my choice is Jayson molumby - thought he would be a bit player, but has improved throughout the season, has tireless energy, and I think a steal at just 700k.
You can pick who you want, it is not a choice of just these 3.

I have read both you opinions, I have not seen us play live this year or in fact for a few years due to Pulisball and my hatred of the premier league and the way English football has become a closed shop like Scotland, so I do not feel I have enough evidence to add a valid point to this thread.
Having said that. Looking from the outside, the player that appears to make the biggest difference to our results this season is Alex Palmer, he plays, we defend better and keep clean sheets, he doesn't play and we gift goals away.
From reading reports only, Swift, Wallace, Molumby and Okay have all weighed in with good performances.
The forwards haven't added as much as they could have and all the squad have had their share of donkey days.
So on that reckoning my choice would be Alex.

Really difficult for me to comment as I've not been able to get to a game this season. However, based upon the reports I have read and the comments in this chat group, I would certainly endorse the vies on Mulumby, who came with low expectation from us as fans but seems to have turned those opinions around.
Not a nomination for player of season but I'd like to give a shout out to Brandon Thomas-Asante for his progress; he came here probably expecting to be on the bench at best but injury to Dike, the general ineffectiveness of Grant and the departure of Robinson, pushed him into minutes on the pitch as a sub and then as a starter. He has much to improve upon but I think for someone who came with so little experience and from League 2, he's done remarkably well.

Not much to choose between
Dara, Okay, Molumby or Wallace.
Personally I'd give to our manager, the turn around from relegation to play off contenders on a shoestring is a miracle.

Agree, Bluebaggie. For all the criticisms that we make regarding selection or substitutions, after his first game we were bottom and seriously concerned about our stays in the Championship. That he taken us from last to the edge of the play offs is, I agree with you, an outstanding performance, particularly given the turmoil within the club and our miserly owner

I`d give it to the laundry staff. But there again, due to players lack of effort, not even sweat stains to remove from the kit.

CC has done an awesome job, well said. I just hope that he can see enough potential and is getting enough support to motivate him for building the new squad this summer.
I'd be happy with a team that purred the way Sunderland did last weekend and was touching the play-off space towards end of season.

Stairs, I agree awesome from CC with some awful talent at his disposal. We took 14 points out of 51 (after 37% of the season) pre King Carlos. To get us this close, still with an outside chance of sneaking in, however unlikely that is, and with the horrendous injury list we have, now and have had over the course of season, is truly remarkable.
Hoping we have the money to build a team that CC can push all the way to the greed league. Then the greedy owner can get the value he wants, sell up and do one, so we can have new owners that care as much about Albion as the fans do, like Wrexham have now got.
Still hoping for a Christmas miracle, 239 shopping days til Christmas.
Come on you baggies.
