Paul East nominated for Berkshire Football Award

SUPPORTER OF THE SEASON
Sponsor Supporters Trust at Reading

Paul East is up for a Berkshire Football Award in the category of Supporter of the Season sponsored by Supporters Trust at Reading.

It’s been a remarkable season for Woodley United’s men’s first team, from the Great Escape last season to a play-off semi-final this season. Remarkable as that transformation has been for a young side, they have been followed on the road by a remarkable supporter.

The nomination we received for this award said: “Paul has been to every Woodley United first team away game this season. While in itself not unique, Paul is an avid cyclist and has cycled to many of the games. This is no mean feat considering he cycled to Hillingdon Borough (Greater London) and Westside (Wandsworth).

“Paul also makes Woodley United supporters presence known at away games with his two Woodley United flags.”

How to nominate someone for a Berkshire Football Award

Scroll down to the bottom of this article for the nomination form. Before you do that though, here’s what the judging panel are looking for when choosing the shortlist.

What’s the story? Tell us exactly why the person or place should be considered. We hate to get all ‘X Factor journey’ on you but the more detail you can include, the better we can argue for your nominee for the short list.

The sort of details we love to see include things like player awards, goals, clean sheets and any other significant contributions to the footballing community – obviously within the 2025/26 season.

Who has been nominated already?

We’ll publish all the nominees for the Berkshire Football Awards as we receive them.
