This month's nominations are Tuttle (Millwall), Sturrock (Sheffield Wednesday), Westley (Derby) and Kelly (Leicester ). Has to be Kelly's! Although saying that Kamara does award it and we also don't want the curse of the award!

Although saying that Kamara does award it and we also don't want the curse of the award! nice to see him nominated and I think of that lot he is the only possible winner! But if Kamara's judging it then I won't hold my breath! I wonder what he thinks of how England and Real Madrid are going about trying to find their new managers! plank.

Chairman Jim McCahill has hinted that Robert Kelly's managerial future at Leicester City could be extended after he was named Championship manager of he month.
Kelly yesterday became the first City boss since Micky Adams in September 2002 to take the award. It came on the back of three wins and a draw from City's four games in March.
The run of form was the best in the division and lifted City away from the relegation zone. And McCahill revealed it has not gone unnoticed by the City board, who have been impressed by Kelly's "genuine managerial qualities and desire to succeed".
And with Kelly only named officially as City boss until the end of the season, his endorsement is the biggest hint yet that he will be asked to continue into next season.
"Rob and his team have gone a long way to easing our relegation concerns and we are now within touching distance of Championship survival," said McCahill. "On behalf of the board, I'd like to congratulate him for that. We set him a challenge of 16 matches to keep us in this division.
"The club's impressive run has not only lifted spirits among everyone connected with Leicester City, but confirmed to the board Rob's genuine managerial qualities and desire to succeed."
Kelly accepted the award on behalf of the rest of the club.
He dedicated the award to the club's players, staff and supporters.
"It was a good month for the club," he said.
"But I have said it all along, and I have said it because I believe it, that it's not about one individual.
"The biggest credit has to go to the players, since the change was made. It's recognition of them, and the staff and the supporters and the hard work which they have put in.
"I have received it, they have to give it a name, but it's recognition of the hard work we are doing."
There is often a feeling in some quarters though that the accolade is jinxed, and that its award precipitates a downturn in fortunes.
That theory, and City's form, will be put to the test by Norwich City at Carrow Road tomorrow but Kelly is not about to lose sleep over it.
"I am not superstitious," he said. "Whether we had got this award or not, Norwich was always going to a difficult game and I don't think it will be affecting the result of this game."
Chris Kamara, Coca-Cola Manager of the Month Awards panel chairman, said: "Rob Kelly has done a fantastic job at Leicester since being handed the managerial reins. He has shown great belief in his players and they have repaid him with terrific performances."

Well he should be given the job but what McCahill says there hardly seems like he is saying Kelly will get the job, its suggestive at most. Nice to see Kamara praising us though! ;D
