There will be no swanky players awards this season with senior management deciding to can the black tie event.
Often held at the 5-star JW Marriott Grosvenor House on London’s Park Lane and costing £3720 per standard table.
Usually held in May, there has been announcements or promotions of the event which usually helps fund the West Ham Academy.
Awards usually include top goal scorer of the season, signing of the season, team performance of the season, save of the season, goal of the season, young Hammer of the season, Dylan Tombides award, Players’ Player of the Season, Individual performance of the season, Players’ project award, Women’s Hammer of the Year and of course the climax with the Hammer of the year being crowned.
A senior club source speaking to 6foot2 this afternoon confirmed there would be no players awards night adding “ it is entirely inappropriate with the season we have had”
First sensible decision this season.
