official...looked so happy at the ceremony...could barely talk! he really bleeds for chelsea...other awards tonight:

goal of the season: Belletti v spurs

Club award: Lamps for getting to 100 gls

Young player: given to whole FA Youth Cup Final team

Players Player: Riccy carvalho

Well pleased for Joey, if somewhat surprised.

Lets hope this inspires him to put in a memorable performance in Moscow.

Very very suprised, but well done Joe

What a fix.

2007/8 Chelsea POTY voting = ITV Ant and Dec !!

Scandalous that Ricky did not win it !!

only a major surprise cos he's been off form the last few weeks, but he was our best creative attacking player all season, has played more games than anyone else and played as big a part as any in our success...plus fact he is a crowd favourite it's understandable he's got the vote...riccy deserved it too, but I think the players knew joe got the vote from the fans cos they made sure he got their vote for players' player

Anybody know what percentage of the vote each player got?

Really happy for Joe, but it is a crying shame in my opinion that Riccy didn't get it. I don't think anybody came close to him this season for Player of the Year. Popularity contest, but at least he got recognized in some capacity. Shockingly underrated.

like I said, a few weeks ago no-one would have complained...I love riccy too, but he had his dodgy form too but it was a few months ago against barnsley and the two games v spurs etc...joe has had his now, but no losers really...we're all chelsea and the ceremony really showed the team spirit is alive and well and the excitement over moscow came across

more than the league

one more word on riccy...about his injury...didn't say anything, but he didn't seem to be in any pain or walking funny

Sorry but that result is a joke. Its not even Joe's best season for the club. Carvalho has been far better.

I thought you may comment on that Ethical

I'd hate to disappoint!

But to be fair even Just and Nibs would concede that he was behind Ricky this year.

Very happy for Joey, and for me it is a very close call between Joey and Percy. Both have performed very well all season long, so it is tough to call for me

Yeah well joey i thought riccy would of getting it of the fans but im happy for joey lets hope he adds another 2 awards before the end of the season. fair play to frankie lampard to unreal amount of goals from midfield

well done joe cole, didnt get my vote but a very worthy winner

maybe this award will up his performances for the last 2 games of the season

its not even Joe's best season for the club

but its not over the season is it? i thought it was for the whole of last year? and if thats the case then joey deserved it. it was a toss up between joey and ricci for me. happy whoever won it. well done joey.

Should be Ricci!

but well done JC

Congrats Joe, but like others think Carvalho should of edged this one, oh well!

Can't go wrong with Joe anyway

I hope Joey Cole's not reading this site with some of the negative comments. Cole and Carv both picked up awards and I think that's fair. Congratulations to both of them, and thanks.

Congratulations to everyone that won an award, let's hope there's a few more to collect before the month's out!!!

I hope Joey Cole's not reading this site with some of the negative comments.

No no no! I don't think anything negative is being said, I love Joe and think he's been great this season, it's just Carvalho has been amaazzzinnggg

Joe was my POTY up until about 4 or 5 weeks ago when he took a dip in form. But go back before Ballack started his great reun and Joey was the clear stand out.

Ricky 'Blind backpass' Cavalho? no way

A tad harsh.

That's 1 mistake in one game. What about Joe 'hit the woodwork' Cole.

Chelsea have not lost in the league with Ricci / JT partnership since Spurs away last season.

They were both rewarded so fair do's.

Has a player ever picked up both awards? Zola perhaps?

can someone answer me this. is last nights awards for the last season or for the year 2007.
