JOEL PORTER took the honours in Hartlepool United's end of season awards.

Presented on the Victoria Park pitch before the final home game of the season with Leeds United, the Australian was rewarded for his efforts with two gongs.

He was voted the supporters' player of the year, after the club asked for votes from the fans this week, and he also took the players' award, presented by club captain Ritchie Humphreys.

Defender Micky Nelson was crowned away player of the year.
