Players Player of the Year - Graeme King (Runner Up Anth Lowrie)
Well done to everyone mentioned and a special mention about the Young Player of the Year where we canvassed about 25 votes and at least 5 of the nominees got 2 votes or more. Well done to Kris Allen who's made the no 2 shirt his and as a quiet kid he's just got on with settling into the Northern league. The fact so many were mentioned shows we've a crop of excellent young kids coming through with one or two more exciting young prospects expected at training next month. Its obvious were willing to give the kids a chance and they rewarded the management team by proving in the 2nd half of the season their all good enough to play at this level, and that has to be the highlight of the 2009/10 season and we wish them all well for the 2010/11 season coming up.
Finally well done to without doubt our 2 most consistent players in Anth Lowrie and Graeme King who deservedly shared the two player of the Year honours and its a testament to the two of them that their both held in high esteem not only by the committee, but their fellow players alike. Well done!
Well thats all folks for 2009/10 season and from the committee of Whickham FC we will never forget John Farrey as a person or for what he's done for this club over the years, but we also must look forward as he himself would have wanted, and hope we can take the club forward in the correct manner by continuing to do things properly in his memory.
RIP John, but bring on the future.
Many thanks for your support and we'll start it all again very soon.

JOHN FARREY R.I.P
Tragically John passed away in The Glebe on Friday 19th February 2010. We as a club are devastated at losing not only our treasurer but Mr Whickham FC who has giving over 30 years service to our club.
We as a club send our deepest sympathies to his wonderful wife Kath and his 3 children David, Michael and Joanne aswell as his Granchildren.
R.I.P Mate!
