It's Fred's night as the awards are handed out

Last updated : 22 April 2002 By Tony Scholes

Dean West - won most of the Player of the Season awards
Just about all the playing staff were present, in fact all but Paul Cook and Paul Gascoigne, and they were joined by Stan and Kath Ternent, Sam and Helen Ellis and all the coaching staff. It was a slightly subdued evening following on from yesterday's games but everyone did their best to enjoy themselves.

The evening was compered by first team coach Mick Docherty and opened with a short video showing some of the highlights for the season. The first presentations were to the kit sponsors who received their shirts from the players before the supporters' groups awards were presented.

The first award went to Gareth Taylor but things were soon to change as one player, Dean West, dominated the evening. He picked up award after award as many of the groups announced him as their top player for 2001/02. The only time he seemed to take a back seat was during the presentations for Goal of the Season something that Fred has no chance of winning.
