We’re delighted to confirm that County boss Dave Challinor has been named as the Sky Bet League Two Manager of the Month for February.
It’s the second time in three months that the gaffer has picked up the award, having also won it in December. It comes after leading County to five wins from six games last month, our best run of the season and one that has catapulted us into the play-off places.
Upon receiving the award, Dave Challinor said:
“Obviously delighted to win this award for the second time this season, after what proved to be a really good month for us. The competitive nature of this league means it’s really difficult to string a consistent number of wins together, as results elsewhere have shown, so to win five games on the spin was a fantastic achievement and credit to the players for that.
“We were disappointed with how the month ended away at Barrow, but overall the run we went on has put us in a position that we’d all have taken at the start of the season, particularly after the bad start we had in our opening ten games. We’re right in the promotion mix now with 11 games left to play, so hopefully we can build on this now and make it an exciting end to the season for our supporters.”
