Sport: Local and national sport in and around Watford - Watford Observer

Adrian Mariappa was the comprehensive choice as the Watford Observer Player of the Season last year but who will follow in the footsteps of the now Reading defender and become the 41st holder of the prestigious award?

It is again time for you to help decide as, in association with Watford FC, we begin our quest to find the top player of the current Championship campaign.

You can also have your say on who should follow Troy Deeney, who is in the running again with a nomination this year, as the next recipient of the Goal of the Season trophy.

A system of one person, one vote will be utilised and this will be strictly enforced. Votes received without an accompanying name, address and phone number will not be accepted.

As in previous years, the Hornets’ travelling fans will be canvassed before the winners are announced at the club’s awards dinner at Shendish Manor Hotel on Sunday, May 5.

When you vote, please use the identification letter for Goal of the Season to assist with counting and the deadline for voting in all categories is Sunday, April 14.
