Guest greengrass Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Maurice Malpas . :scared: Motherwell's Maurice Malpas insists that his players deserve the credit after he was named the Scottish Premier League's manager of the month.Malpas's side ended the month losing to First Division St Johnstone in the Scottish Cup but recorded two league wins and a draw."It's an old cliche that the manager doesn't do anything apart from pick the team to go on the park," he said."It's the players that do everything on the pitch so it is really their award."Malpas criticised his players for the quarter-final defeat at Fir Park but lauded them for their league form after receiving his Bank of Scotland award."As opposed to it being manager of the month, I would prefer it was team of the month," he said."The players have have had to work hard after a poor start to the season and, in the last month, they have been excellent."In fact, they have been excellent since December."In the last month, we've picked up more points than a lot of people were expecting us to, so it is pleasing for them."2 wins and a draw , and dumped out the cup --------------------------------------------------------------------------------strachan won it last month.(jan) his 4th consecutive month domestically winning all games ,,still not gonna keep awarding same people all the time. id have gave it to wattie this month tbh even with a draw with hertz, better than malpas. PLayer of The Month Award Goes to : SHUNSUKE NAKAMURA :Animation44: (and even hes had better ones than feb i thought and not given)only his second time given Potm since joining the hoops at the start of last season.

But maybe since the league is pretty much over (I still have hope ) they just gave it to the manager of a smaller team, and their probably still pissed off at Wattie leaving the Scotland job.

Guest greengrass Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 sorry , NAKA has NEVER won it . jeezo. :scared: Award first for NakaGregor KyleIT’S been a long time coming, but Shunsuke Nakamura has claimed his first ever Player of the Month award in Scotland.Celtic’s Japanese midfielder has been in outstanding form this season as Gordon Strachan’s men have romped to a 19-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premierleague table and progressed to the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.His wonder-strikes against Manchester United at European level have also led to two awards from UEFA.However, this official recognition has not been forthcoming at domestic level until a series of typically influential displays in February.The midfielder provided assists in the games against Livingston, Hibs and Inverness Caledonian Thistle and scored another trademark set-piece against Aberdeen in a month which also saw Celtic book their place in the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup.Well Done NAKA (clap) Loooong Overdue.
