Whitby Town Goalkeeper Gets Hands On Twin Supporters' Awards

Monday, 12 May 2025 06:00

Keeper Shane Bland was one of the big winners at Whitby Town Football Club's Presentation Night on Friday.

The evening at Whitby's Royal Hotel saw Bland, who has now made over 450 appearances for the club, the third-highest of all time, crowned supporters' and website player of the season.

Players voted Frankie Whelan their man of the season despite only joining last summer, the youngster impressed after his release from Championship side Middlesbrough.

Aaron Haswell won goal of the season for his edge of the box volley, from a corner, at FC United of Manchester, in a 3-2 win, last month.

Defender Callum Wilson, who made his first team debut against Blyth recently, won Under 18s Players' player, while local lad Tommy Dowson took the managers' award. Adam Thomas was the U18s top goalscorer.

We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
