Bobby Stokes scored the only in that game and won a car - who gave him the car - I am guessing it was the sponsors or was it someone else?
Also, have any other footballers been awarded prizes for goals?

Can't answer your question but another footballer who won a prize for scoring a goal was Kenny Burns who played for Birmingham City in the seventies. Someone said they would give a TR7 to the 1st Blues player to score the 6th goal in a game. If my memeory serves me well Kenny scored the 6th out of 7 that blues scroed at (i think) Leicester.

Probably the sponsors, or the chairman.
I'm not sure about prizes for goals, but when Junhino got a man-of-the-match award playing for Middlesbrough some years ago, as he was under 18 he couldn't recieve a magnum of champagne, so instead he was presented with..... A MOUNTAIN BIKE!!!!!
I couldn't stop laughing!!!

it was a hillman avenger and in 1976 this was massive the scotland team ally's army got the same before they went to argentina 1978. ryan giggs got a mitsibishi at the world club championship in 2000 for player of the match.
there was a WBA striker whos name eludes me at the moment ended up in prison, the chairman told him if he scored 20 before christmas he would buy him a ferrari, he got 19.
