No guesses as to who will win it however!

 

[BensGrandad]

Denis Wise bya mile.

 

[Conkers]

Not surprising really. I did mention a few weeks ago that if we beat Leeds or Hartlepool that Wilkins would be up for MoM.
However I Wise is going to win it again, although in the circumstances Wilkins should be ahead of him, given the quality of the two teams they each have.

 

[Hiney]

Wise should be disqualified from the Manager of the Month, due to his FA Charge - at the presentation, maybe he could swap the champagne for his £5,000 cheque

 

[algie]

I reckon the Swans manager will get it

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Wise should be disqualified EVERY month on the grounds of his CUNTISHNESS.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Wonder if he'll offer the FA a deal to settle the fine - ie pay them 11% of the £5k?

 

[Starry]

dennis doesnt even want the awards.

they cut his arms and legs off then they took his balls. like he said nothing from the fl will be going on his mantelpiece this year. two fingers to the fl.

give it to the swansea one.

.

Is that why he looks so small?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Isn't there usually a curse on this. The winner almost invariably looses every game the next month. A bit like the chairman's vote of confidence curse.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Wise will win. Foregone conclusion.

 

[Easy 10]

Being as Wilkins hasnt cheated his way into tempting in as many players as he wants to the club all on juicy contracts (having stiffed umpteen creditors in the process), but has instead worked within his means, he would be a far more deserving recipient of the award than that little arsewipe at Leeds.

 

[Starry]

Is that why he looks so small?

i suppose so. i do wonder about his balls though. imagine mawhinney going at it with a knife.

cheshire cat the curse is long gone, wise have won it twice this season and we have yet to lose a game.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

They don't usually give it to the same manager two months running unless there are no other credible candidates, therefore I guess Swansea's boss will get it (haven't looked at the contenders, just assuming from the posts above).

 

[Mick Beard BHA]

In which case give the award to Wise now please

 

[Storer68]

Its all based on points.

The team that gets the most points in the month has, by definition, the Manager of the Month.

So that's how the award is decided.

 

[The Large One]

Leaving all cuntishness about Dennis Wise aside, can we just say a big 'well done' to Wendy for getting even nominated.

No matter what the criteria are, and appreciating that there is still a lot to do, and that we are still a long way from being where we want to be, Wilkins work is, on some levels, beginning to pay off. How many on here - especially those with the 'he was only the cheap option' attitude - would have seen a Manager of the Month nomination so early into the season back in August?

Fair play, Wendy.

What would be the point in having nominations then?

 

[Storer68]

There is no credit in the nomination - its is just the top four clubs in each divsion for that particular month. This months nominations are Dennis Wise (Leeds), Roberto Martinez (Swansea), John Ward (Carlisle) and Wendy.

• GD: Goal Difference • GFA: Goals For Average per match
• GAA: Goals Against Average per match • PpG: Points per Game

Which means that Dennis Wise will be "chosen" as manager of the Month for League One

cheshire cat the curse is long gone, wise have won it twice this season and we have yet to lose a game.

No the curse is still out there. You just had it in advance last season.
