On Monday we’ll be starting the daily run-down of our Oxford City Fans, ”Twelve Players of the Year”. In a “Twelve Days of Christmas” spirit, we’ll start at twelfth on Monday, eleventh on Tuesday, etc, until we announce the NUMBER #1 PLAYER OF 2010 on Christmas Eve. Today we’ve brought you a little review of the year and clock back in on Monday for the start of our “Twelve Players of the Year”. www.oxfordcityfans.co.uk/ |

Thanks for the plug Padz. We'll hopefully be giving the winner of the Player of 2010 his award after the Didcot game on the 27th December. We're now up to 9th place, with Thursday addition now published. www.oxfordcityfans.co.uk |

Personally would've had Lyonsy in ahead of Harry Harding, but then it's not my countdown and is players of '2010' not just this season, i guess lyonsy missed a chunk of early 2010. Perhaps we could list our own 12 players on here? |

Having seen the list, which Lomax ran past me and a couple of others before puttin g it 'Live', the question of Lyon did come up. I personally would have liked to have Lyon in. However the feeling was, which I can't argue with that for whatever reason he still seems to be a bit-part player, which may or may not be deserved and may not nessarily be his fault. On the plus side, Lyon, apart from being a great down to earth lad (spoken to him on afew occasions) his performances do seem to be gradurally improving as the season is going on, the game against Truro, though a great team perfromance I felt Lyon was certainly a stand-out performer that day...as I said before, probably the best performance ive seen from him in the Hoops. I don't nessarily agree with some of the list and certainly didn't agree with the orginal 'draft' I got handed...but each to there own opinions.  |

If we're honest, there hasn't been a great deal to shout about this year.
I'm glad that it's caused a bit of debate and people don't necessarily agree with the opinions. The list was written before the Truro/Slough matches; maybe Lyonsy might have sneaked in if it was written after. I hope you can all see the reasons behind certain players omissions and inclusions, and we will have a run down of those that missed out next week.
Andy Gunn was a regular at the back in the first half of the year, thought someone might have given him a shout.... It's very easy to forget about the first half of 2010 (something like 23 league games, I think), where many players made their claims for a place in the top 12. I think Harry Harding would have been in it on the basis of that, even without his re-appearance this season.
As I say, it's good to get people talking. If I hadn't run it passed a few eager eyes before hand there might have been a few more surprises in there. I'm a sucker for controversy! Number 2 will be published later today, with the winner announced tomorrow.
Oh, and Padz, I definitely think you should do a similar list with the opinion of those on the forum. Will be interested to see how it differs.
