The last trophy in our countdown is the Frank Bishop Goal of the Season.
Frank was the former Chairman of the Dale Supporters Club, which in many ways led to the formation of the Trust, and this trophy was named in his honour. Members of Frank’s family will be at the Awards Evening to present this award.
This award is a little different to all of the others as it is the only one that will be voted on during the Awards Evening itself. The shortlist of goals will be displayed on the screens around the Ratcliffe Suite and those present will be asked to name their favourite. All votes will have to be in by 8-30 to count.
Previous winners include:
2011-12 Andrew Tutte
2010-11 Gary Jones v Southampton (a)
2009-10 Kallum Higginbotham v Accrington (a)
2008-09 Ciaran Toner v Aldershot (a)
2007-08 Chris Dagnall v Rotherham (h)
2006-07 Glenn Murray v Chesterfield (a)
2005-06 Scott Warner v Torquay United (h)
2004-05 Ernie Cookseyv Boston United (h)
2003-04 Kevin Townson v Bristol Rovers (h)
There will be tickets available for the Awards Evening at the Trust desk from 1pm in the Ratcliffe Suite before this weekend’s game with Plymouth subject to availability. The event is now expected to be a sell out, so supporters are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment.
