ONLY four players can now win The Press Player of the Year award.

With five fixtures left to play, Kyle Letheren remains the strong favourite despite losing his place in the team through injury to on-loan goalkeeper Scott Loach.

Letheren is seven points clear of nearest rival Alex Whittle and the only other two players with a remote mathematical chance of catching him are Simon Heslop and Sean Newton.

The Press points for last weekend’s 2-0 victory at Chester were shared between our man-of-the-match Danny Holmes (three), second-highest rated performer Vadaine Oliver (two) and Amari Morgan-Smith (one).

Holmes also collected the two Player of the Month bonus points on offer towards those standings, having topped the man-of-the-match Twitter poll.

The Press Player of the Year standings: Letheren 34, Whittle 27, Heslop 21, Newton 20, Connolly 17, Parkin 17, Parslow 16, Oliver 14, Brodie 12, Klukowski 12, Kamdjo 10, Morgan-Smith 10, Bencherif 8, Flinders 8, Fry 8, Lappin 8, Higgins 7, Holmes 7, Rooney 7, Felix 5, Galbraith 5, Racine 4, Loach 6, Murphy 3, Clappison 2, Dixon 2, Moke 2, Wright 2, Cooper 1, Nti 1, Oyebanjo 1, Rzonca 1, Simpson 1, Walton 1.
