Who you calling Cokehead?Cardiff City's Dave Jones has been confirmed as the Championship's Coca Cola Manager of the Month for October today.
He was named on a shortlist earlier this week along with Simon Davey (Barnsley), Paul Jewell (Derby County) and Alex McLeish (Birmingham City) but his, and City's record, of 3 wins and 2 draws rising to 3rd place last month was the best of all contenders so it would have been a shock had he not triumphed.
In awarding the honour, Chris Kamara who chairs the panel paid this tribute, "Dave Jones is proving once again just what a top-class manager he is. He guided to Cardiff to the FA Cup final last season and, despite having little money to spend in the summer, has worked wonders to ensure his side have remained competitive at the top end of the Championship so far this season."
Congrats to Dave and Cardiff City.
For the record, Paul Trollope won the League 1 award and Huddersfield's Peter Jackson took the gong for League 2
