Graham Turner Wins Manager Of The Year

[Up-The-Bulls]

Bulls' Supremo Graham Turner has been named as Football League 2 Manager of the year at the League Managers Association ceremony in Nottingham this evening. England head coach and LMA president Fabio Capello presented all the awards.

The Premiership award went to Sir Alex Ferguson while the Championship went to WBA's Tony Mowbray and the League 1 award to Swansea's Roberto Martinez.

LMA chairman Howard Wilkinson said: "The awards recognise the achievements of the managers across the four top leagues in England.

"Recognition by your peers is an incredible privilege and this year's winners should be proud of their achievements.

"The LMA would like to congratulate all the managers for playing such an integral role in another fantastic season."

Turner was the only winner not to have finished the campaign as manager of a championship winning team, which shows the true recognition of his achievement.

For me, and i may have a biased view, but that is about right with Mr Turner winning the award, when you look at how much Peterborough and MK Dons both spent ...

Then look at how much we spent, £20,000 on Ben Smith which was the first time in TEN YEARS we have had the financial backing to be able to spend such money ...

All of Turner's other signings have been those brought in on free's ...

Well done GT, much deserved ...
