http://www.accringtonstanley.co.uk/g...gue%20logo.gifThe on the pitch achievements of Accrington Stanley in December have further been recognised with John Coleman and Phil Edwards listed in the shortlists for the Coca-Cola Manager and Player of the Month awards respectively.

John Coleman is named along with Keith Hill from Rochdale, Sammy McIlroy from Morecambe and Aldershot's Kevin Dillon. Stanley defender Phil Edwards is listed with Notts County striker Lee Hughes, Morecambe forward Phil Jevons and defender Craig Dawson from Aldershot.

Accrington Stanley won 5 out of 7 matches in December, including an FA Cup second round replay at Barnet that saw us through to the third round for only the second time in our recent history, and one of the defeats was at Leeds United in the area semi-final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, the furthest that we have ever progressed in the competiton.

May not win either, but along with the award for Symes, it is great to be in and around it!!! :) :) :) Good times for Stanley! :)

Personally i think they deserve to win Decembers, given all the november crap,n what they achieved.:) also the leeds match, simon grayson said the best team lost. fantastic achievement IMHO.

Would love Phil to win this award, it's about time he got some recognition. Not sure about Coley (not cos he doesn't deserve it, just that the manager of the months award can be a jinx and we don't want that)

When is the decision?

Well said! It's just like when the Ultras sing "you might as well go home", which guarantees a goal for the opposition - always drives me nuts.

You can usually work out the Manager Of the Month, it's normally awarded on points gained during the month.

:) Second month in arow our coleys been in the running for manager of the month,and if he keeps getting the mentions then intrest will come from bigger clubs for his services IMHO:eek:.And with Phill been mentioned as well as player of the month ,Also he will attract intrest for his services as well:(But both deserve recognition for the hard work they have put in! With all that has gone on at our club to which it must have been difficult to consentrate on the football side of things:)

Re: Player and Manager, of the month December!
 

Which would you rather have progression, good football & success that will bring suitors or scrapping for our lives in a relegation dogfight constantly looking where our next three points are coming from to keep ahead of our rivals and going back to playing hoofball:eek:

I know what you are saying Mab I suppose the point I am trying to make is it a Double Edged Sword:)

Re: Player and Manager, of the month December!
 

quite right in my eyes, plus aint to concerned about coley, reckon he could teach Mr symes a thing or two about loyalty.:rolleyes:

Re: Player and Manager, of the month December!
 

If it's judged on points per league game then Keith Hill will win.
