Ledley scored the only goal of the game as Cardiff made it to their first FA Cup Final in 81 years, overcoming Barnsley at Wembley and setting up a clash with Portsmouth on Saturday 17 May.

Ledley was voted the Player of the Round by fans on TheFA.com, coming in with more votes than Lassana Diarra, Brian Howard and Neil Clement combined.

The four names were selected by a panel which includes Mark Clemmit of Radio Five Live, Howard Wheatcroft of the Daily Star, Ricky George of the Daily Telegraph, David Emery of the Non-League Paper and E.ON Managing Director Graham Bartlett.

Player of the Round winners will receive VIP hospitality for themselves and their guest at The FA Cup Final on Saturday 17 May 2008.

The winner of each award will be presented with a trophy along with a kit bag of training equipment which he can donate to a local school of his choice.
