Aston Villa have cancelled their player of the year award.
They’re rock bottom, they’re stinking the place up, you know yourself.
So, instead of celebrating anything about what has been eight pitiful months so far, the club have reportedly just abandoned a player of the year award.

Aston Villa: "We will not be holding annual Player of the Year Awards. In current circumstances, we're sure our supporters understand" #avfc

Only last season, they were forced to cancel their goal of the month competition for October… because they didn’t score any goals.
This campaign has been dire, they’re headed straight for the Championship this weekend, and there’s a poisonous atmosphere consuming Villa Park.
The club can’t even write anything on their Twitter account anymore without getting bombarded by disgruntled supporters. We took a look at the social media accounts of Premier League clubs during a random midweek and, naturally, Villa’s was the most hilarious.
So you can imagine how that lot would’ve reacted to the club’s announcement of a player of the year award in this year of all years. Of these players of all players.
They still deserve recognition though. They’ve played as many games as every other club. They’ve tried their hardest. Well, they’ve tried.
Okay, they showed up. In body.
It was probably too tough to call for the club to pick just one of their potential players of the year but here are their options.
Brad Guzan
Alan Hutton
LOL.
Micah Richards

Joleon Lescott
Aly Cissokho
Depressing that you could actually make a case for him.
Jack Grealish

Actually, we’ve found the player of the year. Kevin Toner. Good Irish man. Plenty of fight. Give it to him just.
