Gillingham's Simeon Jackson has been getting a lot of love lately. The mercurial striker has been a boggie on the transfer market radar for a few English clubs the last year or so and interest doesn't seem to be diminishing any heading into 2010 as the goal scoring tally continues to rise. With Gills sitting in the bottom third of the League 1 table Mr Jackson has managed to put 13 into the ol' onion bag so far and is on track to bettering his last seasons impressive League 2 totals. Not too shabby for playing on a newly promoted club with a horrendous road record. Not too shabby at all. More and more it looks like come January Mr Jackson will be saying farewell to the sea air and moving on up the road towards bigger and better challenges. The love coming Mr Jackson's way isn't confined to English soccer circles either. Over at the Canadian Soccer Association the year end polling results are getting out and it was announced Friday that the man had been voted the CSA's Male Player of the Year. An impressive acknowledgment from Canada's footie media and accredited coaches alike. Congratulations to Mr Jackson and here's hoping it all augers well for the future. By the way, over at rednationonline.com they managed to get a few words in with the Mississauga footballer about this award. Always a good read over a rednationonline where they've had a busy winter so far. Stop in and check out the good work.
