WWW.HIBERNIAN-MAD.CO.UK Player of the Year 2007/08 - Chris Hogg

It's that time of year again folks, time to announce who has won our yearly Player of the Year vote.

The winner of the 2007/08 WWW.HIBERNIAN-MAD.CO.UK player of the Year is CHRIS HOGG.



Hogg, 23, has been superb for the Hibees in what turned out to be quite a disappointing season at Easter Road. The Hibees finished 6th and went out of both domestic cup competitions early. Motherwell knocked us out the CIS and Rangers knocked us out, after a replay, of the Scottish cup.

The English centre half joined the Hibees from Ipswich Town in 2005 and has now played over 70 times for the club, turning in to a superb defender over that time.

Hoggy becomes the fourth player to land our now annual award.

The previous winners were:

2004/05 - Garry O'Connor
2005/06 - David Murphy
2006/07 - Abdessalam Benjelloun

We had a total of 191 votes this year, with last years winner Benji coming last!!

Here is how those votes panned out:

Chris Hogg: 86
Steven Fletcher: 50
Merouane Zemmama: 20
Yves Makabu Ma-Kalambay: 8
Dean Shiels: 7
