Cokes Is Your Young Player Of The Year

With thanks to those of you who have voted over the past few days we can now report that Ben Coker has won our Colchester United Young Player of the Year award for the 2010/11 season.

In a change to the format of the past ten years we were unable to get voting underway before the end of the season, but the votes have flowed in since the weekend and the 21-year-old stormed the fans vote ahead of John-Joe O'Toole in second place and last years winner, Anthony Wordsworth, in third.

Thanks again to those who voted.
