Cty Awards

In 1974, York City first presented a Player Of The Season award. It was named in memory of Billy Fenton, a star of of our 1954/5 FA Cup team and was presented by Margo, his widow. The first recipient, Phil Burrows, immediately left the club.

More recently, there has been a raft of similar awards presented.

I would not have scored the goals without the rest of the players, though, and I think a lot of them could have won the award".
