Awards
Anderson won the SPL player of the month award in
November 2006.[58] He was nominated for Scottish PFA
Players' Player of the Year for the 2006/07 season, and was
the only nominee playing for a club other than league
champions Celtic. Anderson was also named in the Scottish
PFA team of the year for the 2006–07 season.[59]
Personal life
His son Jevan is also a footballer.[60]
Notes
A. Soccerbase's stats for the match between
Nottingham Forest and Derby County on 17 September
2011 fail to count a substitute appearance made by
Anderson, instead crediting it to Lee Croft.[61]
Therefore, until and unless they correct it, he should
have one more appearance for Derby than given on his
Soccerbase page.
