City Duo Nominated

Pressley And Wilson Up For Award

As expected, Coventry City manager Steven Pressley is amongst the nominations for League One Manager of The Month.

Although City lost their opening game of the season 3-2 at Crawley Town and went out of the Capital One Cup at Leyton Orient by the same score, the free scoring Sky Blues have turned a minus ten points deduction into minus two points by the end of August.

The City boss is nominated along with Darren Ferguson of Peterborough United, Wolves' Kenny Jackett and Leyton Orient's Russell Slade and said to the Coventry Telegraph: "The buy in from everyone is terrific and I'm not just talking about the players. Neil MacFarlane's efforts, the physiotherapists, Paul Travis working on the analysis and Pete Tierney who has put together a really strong programme together to maintain our fitness levels, so they are vital to it" 

City's leading scorer Callum Wilson is nominated for the Player of the Month award.

Wilson has scored in every one of City's League One games apart from the trip to Carlisle where he proved too hot to handle for the United defence,

The Coventry born Academy product is nominated along with Colchester's Magnus Okuonghae,  Romain Vincelot of Leyton Orient and Bradford City's Nakhi Wells.

The winners will be announced on Friday morning
