Paul Hartley has been named as Glen’s Vodka League One manager of the month following the recent run of form which has seen Cove Rangers hit the top of the table.
The side won all three matches played during October, without conceding a goal, leaving the gaffer as the outstanding choice for the award.
As he approaches five hundred games in management, Paul has now picked up around twenty such trophies, but says the credit for this one has to be shared:
“It has been a team effort with my staff and the players, that’s how you get these awards, we’ve all been working hard together. It’s nice to get it, of course it is, it’s recognition that after a slow start things are coming together now.”
“I’m experienced enough to know that being a manager, it comes in peaks and troughs. Unless you’re at the very top level, you’re going to go on bad runs and you have to accept that, but you also have to enjoy the good times, and that’s what we are all doing now.
“I’ve been on the flipside, when things are going terribly, so you don’t get carried away. It’s all about trying to keep our form going, stay grounded, and make the most of this feeling. I still love the game, still get that buzz coming to training, or on Saturdays, and I want that to continue.
“So, getting an award like this is fantastic for everyone at the club, it means we’re on a bit of a high, we’re doing well, and we just need to keep that going.”
