Brown Named Manager of the Month

City ended February in 8th place, 2 points off the play-offs and 12 off the top. After 6 wins and 2 defeats over the past month, Brown's side begin April in 3rd place, just 1 point off 2nd-placed Stoke and 2 behind leaders Bristol City.

Brown has won the Manager of the Month award for his part in that. Neil Warnock (Crystal Palace), Alan Irvine (Preston) and Mick McCarthy (Wolves) were also nominated but beaten by Brown to the accolade.
