Waterford's Phoenix Patterson nominated for Player of the Year award
Waterford FC player Phoenix Patterson has been nominated for The PFA Ireland First Division Player of the Year award alongside Galway United's Stephen Walsh and Treaty United's Enda Curran.
The impressive attacker has scored 20 goals in the league and playoffs so far this season which included a number of sensational free-kicks.
The former Tottenham Hotspur and Watford youngster has helped guide Danny Searle's side to this Friday's promotion/relegation decider against UCD. A Waterford win would see the Blues return to the League of Ireland Premier Division.
Patterson has also been nominated for The PFA Ireland Young Player of the Year award alongside Andy Lyons of Shamrock Rovers and Joe Redmond of St Patrick's Athletic.
