Введение
Футболист года Texaco - это награда по гэльскому футболу, созданная в 1958 году, которая была посвящена достижениям футболиста выдающегося совершенства. Премия была частью премии Texaco Sportstars Awards, в которой были удостоены ирландские спортсмены из всех областей. Награда вручалась ежегодно футболисту, который показал лучшие результаты в предыдущем году в Чемпионате по футболу. Голосование за премию проводилось избранной группой журналистов из телевидения и печатных СМИ. Сама награда, высотой 14 дюймов, была одной из самых востребованных наград в ирландском спорте. Эта награда отличается от "Футболиста года" от "Олл Старс", присуждаемого GAA с 1995 года в рамках премии "Олл Старс" от GAA GPA. Марк и Томас О Се из Керри, а также Алан и Бернард Броган (младший) из Дублина - единственные пары братьев, которые выиграли награду. Джек О'Шей из Керри выигрывал награду чаще всего, с четырьмя победами. Премия была прекращена в 2012 году после того, как Texaco отозвала спонсорство.
The Texaco Footballer of the Year was a Gaelic football award, created in 1958, that honoured the achievements of a footballer of outstanding excellence. The award was part of the Texaco Sportstars Awards, in which Irish sportspeople from all fields were honoured. The award was presented annually to the Gaelic footballer considered to have performed the best over the previous year in the Football Championship. Voting for the award was undertaken by a select group of journalists from television and the print media. The award itself, standing 14 inches high, was one of the most sought after accolades in Irish sport. This award is distinct from the All Stars Footballer of the Year, awarded by the GAA since 1995, as part of the GAA GPA All Stars Awards. Marc and Tomás Ó Sé of Kerry, and Alan and Bernard Brogan (junior) of Dublin are the only pairs of brothers to have won the award. Jack O'Shea of Kerry has won the award the most times, with four wins. The award was discontinued in 2012 after Texaco withdrew their sponsorship.
