Young Player of the Season

As with the Player of the Season award, this prize was voted for by registered users of evertonfc.com.

The poll attracted thousands of votes. The five players selected for the voting process were John Ruddy, Iain Turner, Victor Anichebe, James Vaughan and James McFadden.

There was a great deal of interest in this vote. The winner was a player who was also well placed in the main Player of the Season poll.

It is easy to forget that James McFadden has only recently turned 23. He has established himself as a key figure for Scotland since his arrival at Goodison from Motherwell in September 2003.

And this season, he has impressed as a partner alongside James Beattie, netting seven goals - the majority in the second half of the campaign.

He has recently enjoyed his longest run of starts in the first team since his move to the Premiership and he was delighted with his prize, which was presented by skipper David Weir.

He said: "It has taken me a while to settle into the Premiership. Probably longer than most. It is good to receive this award."
