Can anyone explain why Wilkins wasn't nominated for League One Manager of the Month again in November?
OK, so he wasn't going to win it with the way Forest played, but he should have been placed second given that we played 7 games (including 2 against sides in the top few) and didn't lose any of them.

That's better than both Huddersfield and Orient, and their mangers were nominated!!

We only won one league game though.

And I believe it's given out on League form only.

Fair enough, but we drew away at Orient (having been robbed by a crap ref) and drew at home with top of the table Carlisle, with ten men for a while - surely good enough form for a nomination.

Whereas a good ref may have given a pen to them early in the game and might have disallowed Dean Cox's goal for climbing by Forster

And would have allowed Hammond's perfectly good header and given Bas a penalty a minute later.

its done on points dropped - regardless of who we played, we only took maximum points in one match this month

i think keith downing should have got it - as cheltenham only lost ONCE in the league this month and won ONE match - and thta was against LEEDS, which must count for double?

was never gonna get voted in on our league form in november although i was suprised that andy ritchie (lost at home to orient on sat) was

orient have had a similar month to us as well with draws against us and swindon

thought that

john ward - beating leeds and a draw at the withdean would have put him in there
calderwood - think like carlisle they only played 3 games but beat in form crewe and hammered southend
o'driscoll - doncaster have shot up the league
who ever is in charge at crewe these days - after 3 wins out of 4

would have been the 4
