Arbroath stars Michael McKenna and Thomas O’Brien have been nominated for the PFA Championship Player of the Year.
The pair have played crucial roles in the Lichties’ dream season and could still have a hand in who is crowned league winners.
McKenna is currently the Championship top scorer with 14 goals.
The 31-year-old is also credited with assisting seven further goals, meaning he has been involved in 21 of his team’s 50 goals this campaign.
Club captain O’Brien meanwhile has formed a solid partnership with Ricky Little at the back and, along with keeper Derek Gaston, has helped the side to 17 clean sheets.
The 30-year-old Fifer has featured in all-but-one of his side’s league games this season.
They have been shortlisted for the prestigious gong alongside Kyle Lafferty of Kilmarnock and Partick’s Scott Tiffoney.
Great to see and definitely 1 of them should win it 👏👏
