As some of you will have seen in last weeks programme the voting for the 2 supporters awards for this season is now open.
Votes can be cast on the voting slips available in the club shop next Saturday or by emailing your choices to vote@albionrovers.com
Same procedure as previous years, for Player Of The Year, vote for your top 3 players in order of preference and for Goal Of The Season, vote for your top 3 goals from the season, again in order of preference.
It's one vote in each category per person and your vote must include your name on it. The closing date is Sunday April 17 at midnight. The results will be announced in the programme for the last home game against Forfar on April 23rd and details of the presentations will be announced before then.
A lot of the goals this season are team goals coming from good moves but we've still nominated the person who has put the ball in the net - the hardest part!
Any goal scored this season is eligible but to help jog some memories here are a few that we've listed on the voting slips.
1. Ally Love - his 1st goal v Ayr at home in August 2015 2. Andy Bannerman - his 1st goal v Stenny at home in Sept 2015 3. Paul Willis v Brechin away in October 2015 4. Scott McBride v Cowdenbeath at home in November 2015 5. Gary Fisher v Stenny away in December 2015 6. Paul Willis v Forfar at home in December 2015 7. Scott McBride v Brechin at home February 2016 8. Ally Love v Brechin at home February 2016 9. Ally Love v Brechin away March 2016 10. Ally Love v Airdrie away March 2016

In an attempt to perhaps restore some natural objectivity to the list of goals I would add the following for consideration by two of our now ex players:
11. John Gemmell v Peterhead at home in October 2015. The big man came on as a late sub, intercepted a poor back pass but nevertheless had it all to do as he tip toed around the keeper and finished from a tight angle. It gave us a great 3 points which is part of the reason we are still in the promotion play off mix at the moment. So a well taken goal and one of real value. 12. Josh Mullin v Dunfermline in November 2015. A header out of the Dunfermline defence fell to Josh at the edge of the box and he volleyed it first time into the back of the net. What a strike that was! That is a contender for goal of the season at any level. Earned us a well deserved point against the runaway champions. 13. John Gemmell v Airdrie at home in January 2016. A great team goal ending with McBride I think it was putting in a great cross which Gemmell finished spectacularly from close range with a classy diving header. So a great team goal, finished well and in style, against our local rivals and it put us 1-0 up. What's not to like about that goal?

Sorry, Mick, looks like an OG to me but a welcome goal nonetheless.
I would suggest a sprint between Mick and Sam, know who my money is on.

Sorry, Mick, looks like an OG to me but a welcome goal nonetheless. I would suggest a sprint between Mick and Sam, know who my money is on. Come on Brian you should know the rules being an experienced ( very experienced coach) ... never an own goal - ball was flying into the top corner... "In association football, an own goal occurs when a player causes the ball to go into his or her own team's goal, resulting in a goal being scored for the opposition. The fact that the defending player touches the ball last does not automatically mean that the goal is recorded as an own goal. Only if the ball would not have gone past the goal-line but for the defending player would an own goal be credited. Thus a shot which is already "on target" would not be an own goal even if deflected by the defender. In this case the attacker (OR MICK) is awarded the goal, even if the shot would have otherwise been easily saved by the goalkeeper. " GOTS for me - hands down.
