To one of my favourite managers, Tony Mowbray of Middlesborogh, I am sure his award was whilst somewhat unexpected, richly deserved. Matthew Bates also deserves a round of applause for a reportedly outstanding defensive display last month for his club. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/9292145.Saints_pair_overlooked_for_awards/
I was also happy (and relived) to see someone else win it other than us. We don't need that curse hanging around our necks. SB3 you need to post this on the Boro board where they can see it.
Congratulations to you also Minging for hanging on to fans favourite,Steve 'Pikey' Cotterill. His brand of outdated, agricultural hoofball sits nicely in the surroundings of that famous old cowshed, Fratton Park....His win ratio as Pompey Manager is impressive compared the previous two manager, Adams and Grant which is probably why the Ice Hockey loving owners rate him so highly!........

Agree with you this time, if we had won all our games it might have been different, and we didn't have one single, outstanding player they were all playing as a team, It would have been churlish to have selected one over the others.
I'm quite amused by the fact that we've been top at the end of both months and yet Nigel has failed to get manager of the month - not complaining though!
I will defend your right to say what you like, as long as you don't mind fielding the flak without getting vindictive and upset, I don't want you suffering from ulcers.
Maybe I should have looked at what you put on the Boro board before I replied last time! I have put the Boro boys straight though now!.................
