Lee Beevers have won the Imps' Player of the Season award, beating off 2nd placed Lee Frecklington and 3rd placed Forrester. It is a fine reward for Beevers after a season where he has never stopped running, scoring 6 goals along the way and recieving interest from other clubs.

Beevers is the second defender in a row to win the Player of the Season award, following on from Jamie McCombe's landslide win last season. It shows how much the opinions of some supporters have changed after he was near enough constantly abused by City fans in previous seasons, the proverbial "scapegoat" of recent years since he joined from Boston.

Lee Frecklington finished 2nd with quite a hefty amount of votes (mine included) and Jamie Forrester finished in 3rd place.

Nat Brown won the Away Supporters Player of the Season and Owain Warlow won the Young Player of the Season.

The Top 4 club legends were finally announced. Tannoy announcer Alan Long strongly hinted that we might be seeing 4th placed Ainsworth back in a Lincoln shire soon. Youth team coach and all-time leading appearance maker, Grant Brown, finished in 3rd place behind Percy Freeman. The winner of the poll was Andy Graver, the definitive City legend recieved a standing ovation from City fans, many of whom are too young to have seen him play.
