Billy's In The Running

[Mist Rolling In...]

One of four contenders for October's Manager of the Month award, having got 10 points from 4 matches.Forest site

Also nominated are Paulo Sousa at Swansea (11 points from 5 games), Dave Jones at Cardiff (10 points from 4 games), and Nigel Pearson at Leicester (11 points from 5 games). Hard one to call I think. Winner will be announced on Soccer Saturday.

Not sure what criteria they use beyond points, but given we've played the likes of Newcastle and Cardiff in our run of games ought to count for something.

That said, all four managers deserve great credit.

The Cardiff game was in November so not considered

Ah bumsticks.

Having checked the League Tables we climbed more places than any of the other teams mentioned above. We moved from 14th to 9th in October. Also, as with Swansea we started the month in the bottom half of the table unlike Leicester and Cardiff who were already up there looking strong. Not that i give a s**t about who gets this award anyway!

 

[Alexandro Garibaldi]

Doesn't this award normally guarantee a loss in the next match? Give it to Gary Johnson!

I was only thinking about this the other day. Billy has got to be in with a shout, more so than the other managers

 

[Bridgfordred79]

Ah bumsticks.

:leacock:

 

[The Maniacal Megatron]

I think Pearson may get it.

 

[thehockleyhustler]

I would like to nominate agent Clough for his excellent work down the A52 in Oct

I thought it was a pretty good curse. Sometimes just a "swear" word won't do, and you have to get creative. Say for example ... fanny-gauntlet.

Nigel Pearson please

 

[Leftfull]

Nigel Pearson please

king billy for me..legend

 

[BrickTop]

I think Billy will win this, because we are still unbeaten away from home.

 

[biskit]

Kiss of death time chaps,hope Pearson gets it

 

[Jonathan]

I think Billy deserves to win it because our run came out of nothing because we were slightly shit beforehand!

 

[nigelnffc]

since the Championship was renamed from Division 1 Billy joint with Colin W**ker are the 2 managers to have won it the most (4 times think) so a win this month would make him the person to receive this award the most

 

[Lizardinho]

Would like to see Billy get it.

Sure everyone talked about it being the kiss of death when CC was up for it a couple of times and we didn't lose after he won it.

 

[weasel]

Does anyone else find the idea of manager of the month nonsense?

It's based purely on results, so it's basically team of the month isn't it.

Well there's no chance of Colin winning any this season.

 

[It's Baggio]

Dave Jones wins.

 

[Jonathan]

Cop-out.

Cardiff were already doing well from the start of the season, whereas Billy has turned our team around completely.
