Seven Donegal players have received nominations for this year’s PWC GAA/GPA All Stars.
St Eunan’s Ciaran Moore (main pic) has also been nominated for a Young Footballer of the Year award.
The seven other Donegal nominations are Shaun Patton, Peadar Mogan, Ryan McHugh, Caolan McGonigle, Michael Langan, Brendan McCole and Oisín Gallen. The only surprise is that Mogan, who received a number of Footballer of the Month awards, has not been shortlisted for Player of the Year.
Described as the ‘find of the season’, Moore is one of three nominations in the Young Footballer of the Year category alongside Oisín Conaty (Armagh) and Johnny McGrath (Galway).
Armagh’s Barry McCambridge has been nominated for Footballer of the Year alongside Galway duo Paul Conroy and John Maher.
All Ireland champions Armagh have 11 nominations from the list of 45, while beaten finalists Galway received eight.
