I vote Rory Patterson. His passion and desire to help drive the club forward have been an inspiration to us all. He has shown commitment to the club and its fans and also been involved in fund raising for local charities which is a true testament to the player.
Rory Patterson has been an inspiration this season at FC United.
He has put his heart and soul into winning games for FC and plays with flair. He has scored vital goals at vital times to make us champions in our first season.
I vote likewise for Rory Patterson. His dedication to help his club to the top was unwavering.
Rooney's your man. As well as being the well publicised hope of the nation, for much of the season he has dragged United along by it's boot laces away from midtable mediocrity and his awesome displays have been one of the highlights of what has otherwise been a disappointing season.
Definately got to be Colin Little. Scoring 17 goals for Alty this year is a fantastic achievement. Well done Colin!
My Sportsman of the year goes by the name of Wayne Rooney also Known by the adored as the 'White Pele'.
Only wish he goes to the World Cup 100% fit.
Looking forward to next year..
I am going to go for Rory Patterson. The young Irishman has been the Keano equivalent at FC, with a similar ??" I want to win all - attitude. He has seen his fair share of red and yellow cards too. Things can only get better next season.
