THE main awards given out at Everton's end of season gala dinner did not come as a surprise.[LNB]In a year which has been full of inconsistencies, not just at the club but throughout the Premier League, it has been certain for some time that Leighton Baines and Steven Pienaar take the plaudits. [LNB]Their form and inter-play down the left has been a consistent feature in Everton's season, particularly since the turn of the year, producing some of the club's best moments.[LNB]The Premier League season threatened to be the most open for many a long year. [LNB]The prospect of a genuine three-horse race, four or five teams equipped to be fighting for the remaining European places and seven or eight sides looking over their shoulders at relegation.[LNB]But going into the final weekend of the season it is only the biggest prize of all that is to be decided.[LNB]In many ways this season as a whole has mirrored the topsy-turvy nature of Everton's campaign.
