How can we possibly hold a player of the year award on 18th April !!
Simply bloody outrageous.
3 or 4 players must still be in the running for it, we could even be in the play offs, thats without the 6 games of the normal season left to play.
WTF are they thinking of, surely the players themselves would be better thinking about important games and promotion than attending an awards ceremony in the middle of a title run in !!

We used to go every year, excellent events to be fair, very professional. A few of the lads are going this time, I’m in Manchester that day though and won’t be back in time.

Geo needs one more assist I think to be the highest assister in Championship history, and that doesn't take into account all the other goals he's had a hand in

I hate these awards before the season has actually finished, we need to complete the season first.
So what happens if this award is given to player A, but players B & C almost won it, then Player A on his way out of the event trips and pulls something that keeps him out for the rest of the season, mean while Players B & C go on a run of scoring and assists for every game (please) until the end of the season.
Nonsense having the event now

I'm with you on these awards, they are ridiculous right now, Rat.
I won't be holding the MOT players awards until after the Southampton game, our final game of the season.

Leif Davis is ahead of him now anyway on 16.
Both quite a way from the record anyway.
Adel Taarabt got 21 in possibly the best individual Championship season ever (assume that's 1st)
I’ll have to check back, but I’m pretty sure when I have been to the events previously, we still have a couple of games to go rather than after the last game of the season.

Yep, total nonsense.
We were saying same thing last night as you described above, whoever thought this up has dropped a bollock.

I'm wondering if they do it this way to avoid it being a bit of a depression fest if we don't get promoted for example / could clash with the play offs

More likely the greedy bastards have sold the venue for weddings and other occasions and this is the only time they can fit the ceremony in.

I’ve just looked back to the award ceremonies I have attended, and not one has been after the last game of the season.
All have been done with around 3/4 games of the season to go.

Daft eh?
I see Rosenior is nominated along with Farke & McKenna for coach of the season.
Crazy, if Corberan wins the play-off final with West Brom

I think the last one I attended may have been on the night of the Villa home game when we ‘gifted’ them the goal. They got Bamford up on stage to talk about him falling when nobody touched him.
They were cancelled for a number of years for the fans due to Covid.

This was spotted by my lot, an error on the clubs part.
The silver ticket tables are actually at the back of The Pavilion, not central, despite what it says above.
