Arsenal midfielder Jordan Nobbs won the public vote ahead of Karen Carney, Steph Houghton and Jill Scott to pick up the Vauxhall England Player of the Year.
The Arsenal fanbase helped vote for the talented midfielder as the England player of the year award but did not manage to pull it off for the FA WSL goal of the season award, where Kelly Smith was included for her 30-yard-chip against Doncaster Belles.
There were some well deserved awards for Jen O’Neill who has been producing a women’s football magazine for 20 years and has been an integral part of the women’s development in England.
And also for Hope Powell, who really built the whole England national team structure from scratch through her hard work. The last part of her tenure as England manager and Team GB manager was really disappointing in term of results and performances but nothing should be taken away from the input and structure she has put in place at the FA.
