THE APRIL/MAY MONTHLY AWARDS RESULTS
Monday 12th May 2008
by Ron Norris

After over a week of voting the results are in and here are the winners of our final goal, match and player of the month awards for this season.
 

GOAL OF THE MONTH

Ainsworth v Preston (H) 86.36%
Blackstock v Preston (H) 9.09%
Blackstock v Hull (A) 4.55%

Last month we had plenty of goals to choose from, unfortunately Rangers weren't so generous to us this time around giving us only four to choose from. Of those four only three goals received any votes.


One totally ran away with it though, Gareth Ainsworth's effort against Preston wins the goal of the month prize with nearly 87% of all your votes cast. Dexter Blackstock's equaliser in the same game came second whilst his strike at Hull limped into third.

Ainsworth's winning goal as described in our match report "Rangers had started to use the ball far better by now and Rowlands was moving the ball into wide areas. Mancienne moved up on the attack and sent a low pass into Ainsworth on the edge of the area. The ball bounced up and as Ainsworth fell away he sent a sweet looping volley over Lonergan into the net."

 
MATCH of the MONTH

With only five games to choose from and two of those ending in defeat it was no surprise that the three games we scored points in were the only ones to secure any of your votes.

QPR 1 - 0 Charlton 68.18%
QPR 2 - 2 Preston 27.27%
Hull 1 - 1 QPR 4.55%
   
The two draws of the month, against Preston and Hull, took the runners up spots but it was the home win against Charlton that romped away with the poll, winning your match of the month choice after taking over 68% of the votes.
   
PLAYER OF THE MONTH
Dexter Blackstock 30.77%
Gareth Ainsworth 26.92%
Martin Rowlands 19.23%
Damien Delaney 11.54%
Matthew Connolly 7.69%
Lee Camp 3.85%

Finally onto the player of the month vote and it's a return to the top for one of Rangers' most popular young players.

It hasn't been the best of seasons for Dexter Blackstock but he ended it in style, hitting his best form of the campaign, scoring three quarters of our goals during April and now caps it off by being named your player of the month.


Dexter wins with nearly 31% of your votes pushing our goal of the month winner, Gareth Ainsworth, into second place. Wild Thing took nearly 27% of the votes whilst Martin Rowlands came in third.

So that's it for March and indeed for this season. Shortly we will be reminding you of all your monthly choices and asking you to pick the best goal, match and player of the season.

Thanks for taking part.
