A spokesman on the club’s website said: “With the social distancing restrictions currently in place, we’ve been unable to go ahead with our annual awards evening dinner this year.
“However, the club and organising committee felt it was still necessary to recognise the achievements of the successful season we’ve enjoyed this year.

Two of the categories – Supporters’ Player of the Year and Goal of the Season – will be decided by a public vote which has now closed.
The timing of the awards event has still to be finalised but the club will announce more details on the event via its website closer to the weekend.
