      Next time if I want to bet on the PFA player of the year, I'll wait for that F**KING whiskey nose to say his pick then I'll make my bet.
      Even Geovanni have more scoring rate than him! Players voted my a**! It's more to Fergie says. No more Simon Says, next time Fergie Says...

      disgrace, 12 appearances, it seems like a sympathy vote to me, who voted, was it all the players, maybe some lifetime award would have been more fitting, but even phil neal didnt get one of these.

      Despite winning a host of honours, including 10 Premier League titles, the PFA award had eluded Giggs until now.

      As well as the league crowns, Giggs has also won four FA Cups, three League Cups and two Champions League winner's medals as well as two PFA young player awards.

      Really. Sums up everything. And now Ferguson has made sure he gets this too before he retires.

      F***ing gutted this happened.  :f_steam:

      Not too sure what to say to be honest. Giggs?
      It's the Professional Footballers' Association Award, so blame the players. It would be interesting to see the voting.
      Does seem to be a Honary thing reading through the lines. Giggs? Devalues the award in my opinion. 12 games and 1 goal!

      Players will also vote for players that they simply like as a person, Giggs falls into that.

      Gerrard should have won the award over Giggs anyday though.

      Giggs can take his pity award and shove it up his arse as far as I'm concerned. He's never won anything in his career in terms of PFA, so they gave it to him this time as a pity vote! Great to know that the FA allow this tripe, most likely they fixed it. If Giggs has any sense of F***ing decency he'll say he didn't deserve to win it.

      A joke. He may deserve a lifetime achievement award but he definitely doesn't deserve the Player of the Year.

      There's no use having this PFA award anyway. Yesterday the Ferguscum said something about Giggs should win the PFA award and suddenly today he won! What a f**king coincidence! You must be joking me.

      As I said, they can quote me, Giggs winning this award is a crock of sh*t.

      Ok yes I am a United fan and I agree with you.

      Giggs should NOT be player of the year and I am sure he knows this as much as we all do.

      A lifetime achievment award yes, player of the year no.

      Giggs will give the trophy to Vidic anyway as he is player of the year.  :-*

      Agree with you all on this, the problem here is that this is to elect the best player of THIS year, the ceremony sounded more like a kind of hall of fame where giggs get his reward for actually been giggs...There are no doubt that his career deserved recognition, but that is the wrong award given to the wrong player, fields of anny rd got a nice collection of names who deserved that award more then giggs.

      But can we be surprise?? absolutly not..Can we laugh about it?? absolutly...

      How the F**k is ryan giggs player of the year he's hardly kicked a ball. Stevie Gerrard should have won it. And how the F**k is Jamie carragher and Alonso not in the team of the year. I hate any football awards they always choose the manc cu*ts and never anyone else and it is disgusting they should take their faces out of fergie's ass

      This is FIX. If Vidic got it I would have Understood, even Van Der Sar because of his record this season but GIGGS?????? He is a top player but he has hardly played this season.

      Any credibility this award had, has now flown out the F***ing window.

      This is a disgrace and a travesty of justice.  :f_steam:

      ooooo, I see what you did there!!

      I think Gerrard would be too embarrased to take another trophy that we did not want though to be honest, then again saying that, it'll give him something to polish in the summer.

      Hmmmm, is that the same reserves team that is 2nd bottom with Hull City the only team below them?

      I am sure he would struggle to get in that team especially with the likes of Deggen, Plessis, and Nemeth competing for places.
