I see the latest uproar on social media has commenced. Is it only me that thinks it's harsh to be so critical and abusive for a few nice awards? I mean I get our form has been woeful but people aren't looking at the season in general, we were in the play offs at one point in December. I personally think there are a few nominees :
1)Lumley. First season in the Championship, 24 years of age, 14 clean sheets (one of the highest in the Champ) plus those three consecutive clean sheets at home.
2)Leistner. Came into another country, never played in England before, to a dysfunctional defence. Played consistently well despite having Lynch next to him. Good leader and in general a good bloke
3)Freeman, carried us throughout so many games it's ridiculous. His performance Vs Leeds warrants a nomination in itself.
Or, you know, we can just hurl abuse at a random guy behind a Twitter account who must be close to quitting with the random sh*t he receives purely for doing his job |  |

bizarre thing to get angry about, they do this every year and if you don't like it don't vote.
Personally went with Freeman as POTY and Eze and young player and Wells for goal of the season against Ipswich. |  | | |

Lumley for me.
Who was the last home grown to win it? Langers? [Post edited 23 Apr 2019 21:20]

Intriguing.
You are either making a protest vote at the unfair treatment of your wee fellow countryman or an an unflinching loyalty to your wee fellow countryman. But two starts and two sub appearances tells me it will be a wasted vote. There are fans out there who wouldn't even recognise him in the street . A real pity as I think he's a real talent and has been treated badly. |  | | |

Eze would have made my top three comfortably had he been played more. | |

I went for Freeman as POTY (clear winner for me & easiest choice since Adel in the promotion season). Eze as young player & Freeman v Villa as GOTS. |  | | |

Joel Lynch has got to be in with a shout on the night. No votes, just him shouting at the doorman 'What do you mean I can't come in? Don't you know who I am?!' |  |
| 'What do we want? We don't know! When do we want it? Now!' |

Not just a QPR thing, though. It feels like anyone who works with social media in anything at all must just take it for granted that a bunch of angry twunts will froth at the mouth all over the place, ignore 'em and just carry on.
It must genuinely be tricky to work out when you really have screwed up | | | |

Hopefully, the doorman would say to the manager “ excuse me sir, this gent doesn't know who he is “ |  | | |

Voted exactly the same way as DaveB.
Do think Eze would be a worthy winner of POTY too though. Yes his performances have generally been ok/poor post Christmas but so has pretty much everyone else's. This isn't intended as a slight as he's obviously been playing through an injury but even Freeman, Leeds performance aside, has not been great in 2019.
The ephemeral nature of modern football supporters' opinions means that people I think have forgotten how good Eze was at times this season. His performances away at Rotherham and Stoke and at home v Millwall and Villa were superb iirc. | | | |

Freeman, Bright and the Wells goal for me. | | | |

Freeman's best two performances this season were his first half against Watford in the FA cup and the Leeds match, so i wouldnt say he was crap in all of 2019
he made 45 appearances last year, playing nearly every minute... hes only missed 1 match this season, also playing nearly every minute
whilst on the pitch, hes been asked to be our creative player, taking on players, keeping the ball, driving forward, creating goals, scoring... but hes also been massive on the defensive side- definitely lacks positional discipline defensively, but has incredible work rate and ball winning skills
he's not particularly athletic and not the type of graceful effortless box to box player... how he's managed the to maintain his level of attakcing and defensive output is beyond me
clearly he was injured against west brom, and instead of getting some rest, he was rushed back. hes been a shell of himself since the norwich match... blackburn was one of his more anonymous matches i can remember
still our POTY [Post edited 24 Apr 2019 18:32]

Freeman got my vote.
Young player was Eze but strongly considered BOS. Hoping for big things from those two and Smyth next year.
I also went for the Eze goal at Villa. Loved that one! |  |

That goal by Polish Pav v Villa reminds me that we were actually pretty good at one point. Hard to believe its the same season as some of the gash we have watched in recent weeks. Anyway..
POTY - Freeman
YPOTY - Eze
Goal - Freeman v Villa
Fan - the bloody lot of us for still being here |  |

| POTY awards on 09:04 - Apr 25 with 4265 views | BrianMcCarthy |
Voted.
Freeman
Eze
Eze at Villa, superb through ball by Freeman swung it over Wells' goal. | |

Didn't say he was crap in 2019, just a 6/10 most weeks other than the Leeds game and, as you rightly point out, the Watford cup match.
I agree that he's our best player. We've been hugely reliant on him for 2 and a half years to provide basically all our creativity week in week out, all while being played in various different positions in different formations that often don't particularly suit him.
Would go for 1) Freeman 2) Leistner 3) Eze in my podium spots for POTY.
All I was really arguing was that Eze has had several superb performances in his first full season at this level at just 20 years old but that seems to largely be forgotten due to the last few months of mediocre performances. I think if Eze had had his September - November performances in February to April and vice versa, he'd be seen as in the running for the POTY. | | | |
