Richard Money has been nominated for the manager of the month award for September.

Despite the fact that the Saddlers suffered their only Legue defeat in the month, courtesy of Grimsby Town, the fact that the team have managed to open a small gap between themselves and the rest means that Money was nailed on for the nomination.

His main competition will come from Notts County’s Steve Thompson, Hartlepool manager Danny Wilson and Paul Lambert at Wycombe. Given the usual “curse”, Saddlers will be forgiven for hoping DD doesn’t get it.

The results will be announced on Thursday.
