BrennanFan Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 http://www.canadiansoccer-secure.com/poll/Register.jsp I didn't know they actually had an official player of the year award. Is this new? And the nominees are: Male Youth Player of the Year Nikolas Ledgerwood, Ryan Gyaki, Josh Wagenaar, Will Johnson, Jaime Peters, Andre Hainault, Tyler Rosenlund Male Player of the Year Atiba Hutchinson, Dwayne De Rosario, Julian de Guzman, Tomasz Radzinski, Paul Staltieri, Greg Sutton, Patrice Bernier Its a 50% fan vote, 50% media vote. Will be interesting to see who wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachesl Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 We'll keep the related thread, generally talking about a wide range of players of the year, open http://www.canadian-soccer.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8484&whichpage=1 , because this discussion should be focussed on the actual contest. I see that the CSA has apparently sent the Voyageurs all invitations and ballot passwords to vote, using our member list. That is kind of a nice nod to us I think. My vote is now tending towards Gyaki for the Youth and Staleri (mainly for club performance, which to me also has to be a consideration as per the World Award, not for his national team performance particularly). Voting is until January 6. Thanks for the link above, Brennanfan, as the links provided on the CSA email don't go anywhere yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ref Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Typical of the CSA. No password and no ability to add your own choice if you do not agree with the ones they provide. Maybe they should also add one called: rate this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Hombre Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Received it. Rather than using a "Voyageur List" is it not likelier that they used the information gathered when they had the voting for the locations of the WYC? I'm pretty sure you had to give information like email for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I'm on their volunteer list or the provincial list for volunteers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
