[oakiecokie]

Mods I hope we can keep this one separate due to the nature of the Awards especially Merlins

Silva, so often overlooked in the national awards, was voted the NWFA PLayer of the Year for 2017.

City pair Foden and walsh both bagged Rising Star of the Year prizes after impressing judges and voters over the past 12 months for Club and country.

The NWFA, now in its tenth year, was launched to highlight ‘the great and the good’ of the region and covers all levels of football, coaching and community.

The ceremony was held at Old Trafford, home of Lancashire County Cricket Club earlier this evening.

For Foden, it caps off a breath-taking past few months.

Eamonn Holmes was there, so I doubt anyone else would have got near it.

In my experience, award ceremonies are a fucking joke. Especially the one I didn't win in 2005, but was nominated for. Those awards were presented by that guy who is Judith Chalmers' son (can't remember his name). Posh and boorish (him, not me).

After winning that award for the previous five years, it was a bitter pill to swallow.

Well done to them all but especially David Silva, as has been said, often overlooked. Plus a great well done to Kiddo, underrated by so many especially in the media. Sounds a great night.
