Maybe it’s time to say to disabled supporters that your vote counts just as much as an abled-bodied supporters. And just have one supporter’s play of the year. It's seems a bit out of date now (I can't see it surviving much longer). You wouldn't have a separate vote for black supporters - what message does this send out? come on barnsley fc get with the times.
They are a supporters group and perfectly within their right to buy a trophy and vote for their player of the year.
Thats the point! They are. Anyone can give a player of the year award . You could have one from your family if you wanted to.
