The annual awards were presented at Silver Jubilee Park this evening - with a number of presentations being made.

The supporters player of the year was won by Kevin Maclaren, with Chris Seeby and Jack Bennett runners up.

The supporter of the year is Rob Wakeley, who travels down from Telford every weekend to our games, and has also done some valuable research for the website archive.

The players player of the year was Lee O'Leary, a vote in which Chris Seeby and Jack Bennett were runners up.

The management team also picked their player of the year, and their award went to Chris Seeby, who played every minute of all 46 league games this season - something t that we believe no outfield player has done since the 1970s.

The chairman's award went to Steve Rogers, who spends many hours away from matchdays working for the club in his roles as match secretary and website editor.

Finally, two special awards were made.

First of all, the supporters association made a presentation to Mike Hogan, who is retiring as chairman of the association this summer. He has been made life president of the assocation as a mark of the efforts he has put in for so many years for the club.

Secondly, Simon Lawrence made a special presentation to Gary McCann to mark his 500th game as manager of the club. As everyone at the club is aware, Gary first joined us just over 17 years ago as a player, and has been around for the vast majority of the time since, and we hope for many years to come.
