Attacking midfielder Gall was a permanent thorn in Charlton’s side, giving international Hermann Hreidarrsson a particularly torrid time, as the League Two front-runners gave the Premiership team The FA Cup fright of their lives.

Gall gained 59 per cent of just over half a million votes cast in the on-line poll at here on TheFA.com.

Gall said: "At the beginning of the week I thought Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney was going to run away with it! It’s amazing to win against such high-class players.

"Thanks to everyone who has put the time and effort in to vote for me. I’m really looking forward to The FA Cup Final in May."

Gall was one of five FA Cup Fourth Round heroes short-listed for the Player of the Round award, run in partnership with UMBRO, after The Daily Telegraph football writer Ricky George nominated him.

Southampton’s Peter Crouch, with 39 per cent of the votes, claimed second place. Wayne Rooney got 4% and Cristiano Ronaldo and Ian Moore of Burnley only claimed 1% each, as a clear winner emerged.

Gall has now won £1,000 worth of UMBRO football kit and equipment for a local school, club or organisation of his choice. He will also be presented with an engraved silver salver.

The Team of The FA Cup will comprise Player of the Round winners from the First Qualifying Round to the Semi-Final.

The other players already selected for The FA’s Team of The FA Cup are Bishop’s Cleeve's Kevin Slack, AFC Wimbledon’s Rob Ursell, Bath City’s Scott Partridge, Halifax Town’s Craig Midgley, Slough Town’s Alex Haddow and Exeter City's duo of Dean Moxey and Paul Jones.
