It’s about people coming together and the supporters are part of this too,” he said. “Any award should be recognised as a club award. “The nomination is great, but I am very experienced and I know it’s a wider picture. Everyone has played a part in the run and results we’ve had.

I came here nine months ago and it was just a piece of land. Now we are sat in it. “We will hopefully be out on grass soon, we will have a gym coming in the near future - it is brilliant. “The results and consistency we’ve had are down to the infrastructure that’s being built. That allows us to go on the runs we have. “The lads have been stimulated by coming here (to the new training ground). Their togetherness has certainly grown by coming here. “It’s a smaller building than the One Call and keeps us closer as a family.” Stags collected 10 points from four unbeaten games in December. They conceded only two goals and also extended their remarkable unbeaten run away from home as they moved into the play-off positions. Flitcroft is up against three other managers for the award -Danny Cowley, of leaders Lincoln City, Mark Cooper, of Forest Green Rovers, and Michael Jolley, of Grimsby Town. --------- update: twitter @SkyBetLeagueTwo 12 out of a possible 15 points in December has seen @officialgtfc boss Michael Jolley named #SkyBetLeagueTwo Manager of the Month. ----------- |
