[Football] Championship Manager of the Month (October)

[Bozza]

Looks nailed on for Rafa after beating Preston on Saturday. Simon Grayson would surely have won it, had Preston managed to continue their impessive league form.



Winners so far this season:

August: David Wagner (Huddersfield)
September: Alex Neil (Norwich)

 

[Simster]

Let's hope you're right.

 

[BensGrandad]

Anyone bar CH as it tends to rebound on the club concerned as regards results.

If it really were the 'manager' of the month, it would have to be Hughton right? To be in second with the resources he has is much more impressive than Rafa.

Derby being in 6th on the form table with 2 wins, 2 draws and a loss tells you a lot about this division!

CH has to be nominated, I would hope.

And have Newcastle played anybody good yet?

 

[Nathan]

Under the radar.

 

[LamieRobertson]

If RB wins perhaps his team could repeat the last winners performance

Erm...they have played us

So we definitely want it to go to Rafa then

 

[Machiavelli]

I thought October was our bogey month

If it's purely down to points gained then Benitez wins but I'd say our results are actually far more impressive - beating two contenders comprehensively in Weds and Norwich and the only draw being against another form side.

Looks like Alex Neil will just miss out on two successive months.

Us, Norwich, Huddersfield, Reading and Bristol City so the entirety of the top 6.

it was tongue in cheek, reflecting the frequent comments last season that BHAFC were in a false position because "they haven't played anyone good yet".

I'm sure you both realised that.

Oh, I don't know. They did quite well to keep us down to 5!

And yes, that is probably slightly unfair as a comment.

I did, but I thought actually they have played a lot of the top teams. So I checked. They have also played Villa and Derby who some people think are good despite all evidence to the contrary.

Alex Neil told to up his game by the Norwich board today or he's history.

Norwich fan on the radio saying they should stick with him - "If we can sort out our defence we'll dominate the Championship".

I agree with that, although on that basis it really should be Grayson or Monk at Leeds. Both have spent considerably less than us, albeit Leeds may be competing on salary.

If I was awarding it I'd give it to Grayson. I'm not though.
