    WITH the football season currently postponed, Celtic’s main hope is that everyone is staying safe and continuing to follow the expert advice being given during this ongoing coronavirus crisis.

    In the fullness of time, of course, we hope to be back at Paradise to play the remainder of the season in front of our incredible supporters.

    This is normally the time in the season when we put fans on the spot and get them to vote in the club’s annual Player of the Year Awards, choosing their favourite Goal of the Season, as well as their first choice in the Player and Young Player of the Year categories.

    There have been so many highlights for Neil Lennon’s side in this brilliant 2019/20 campaign and we’re sure that, at home with your family, the debates will start over your particular favourites before you cast your vote…

    With the League Cup already in the Paradise trophy cabinet for the fourth consecutive year – the club’s 10th successive trophy triumph - a dominant 13-point lead at the top of the Premiership table, and a Scottish Cup semi-final place booked, Celtic have been dominant domestically.

    Add to that an impressive UEFA Europa League campaign saw home and away wins over top Italian side, Lazio – Celtic’s first ever win on Italian soil – and Neil Lennon’s side have been impressive and unstoppable… which makes the decision on who to choose for the various categories even more difficult than usual!

    VOTING IS NOW OPEN!
    Visit our Player of the Year 2020 website
    to cast your vote in all three of the following categories:

    - Celtic Player of the Year (sponsored by Dafabet)

    - Goal of the Season (sponsored by Magners)

    - Young Player of the Year (sponsored by Scottish Centre for Excellence in Dentistry & PWR Pack Ltd)

    To vote for your favourite in these categories, simply register on the Player of the Year website and then cast your votes!

    There are 10 players nominated for the Player of the Year Award, while Jeremie Frimpong, Odsonne Edouard and Kristoffer Ajer all in with the chance of winning in both the Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year categories!

    Player of the Year nominees:
    Fraser Forster, Christopher Jullien, Scott Brown, Ryan Christie, Odsonne Edouard, Kristopher Ajer, Callum McGregor, James Forrest, Olivier Ntcham, Jeremie Frimpong.

    Young Player of the Year nominees:
    Jeremie Frimpong, Mikey Johnston, Odsonne Edouard, Kristopher Ajer.

    When it comes to Goal of the Season, you’re spoiled for choice. Neil Lennon’s side have performed in the great attacking tradition that Celtic are renowned for, and have scored an incredible total of 141 goals in all competitions. Here are 10 of the best goals of this campaign shortlisted for you to choose from!

    As always, there are some belters in this shortlist, so which one will be your favourite? Could it be Ryan Christie’s Flag Day strike, Odsonne Edouard’s derby goal at Ibrox, Kris Ajer’s cool finish at Fir Park back in August or Callum McGregor’s stunning volley at the same stadium in February.

    Or what about either of Olivier Ntcham’s nominated goals – a stunning 35-yard strike against Partick Thistle, or his last-gasp winner against Lazio in Rome. Mikey Johnston is also nominated twice, for superb goals against FK Sarajevo and Dunfermline, while James Forrest’s stunner in Sweden is also there.

    And Leigh Griffiths’ goal in the recent game against St Mirren – one of three he scored in the game – also makes the cut.

    However, the choice of winner is, ultimately, up to you.

    VOTE NOW!

    There are a number of awards up for grabs for this 2019/20 season.

    McGregor's at Fir Park is a shout mate. Great team goal. That's what I did with shooders'. Mental passing move can't mind how many passes it was but was loads..

    Mikey v Sarajevo - just thought it was a great goal.
    After 3 months would have said Christie for POTY but injury and suspension affected him after that. Eddy the most consistently good by far.

    POTY: Forster - the difference it has made having this guy back in goal has been unbelievable. Solid as a rock.

    YPOTY: Frimpong - it's hard to overstate the impact this young guy has made on the team, especially when there was two older players ahead of him in the pecking order. For someone so young he has been outstanding.

    GOTS : Ntcham vs Lazio - Incredible goal. There were other goals that were flashier/ more technical, but given the level of competition and the quality of opposition - not to mention it was still quite a silky finish - it became such an important goal and a special moment that all Celtic fans will remember for a long time to come.
