Clarets are award winners again

Last updated : 14 May 2009 By Tony Scholes
The award is from the League Managers Association whose five man panel consists of Howard Wilkinson, Sir Alex Ferguson, Joe Royle, Dave Bassett and Barry Fry and they agreed that for the second time in 2008/09 that we were worthy of the award. The last time was for our sensational Carling Cup knockout of Chelsea.

Manager Owen Coyle will receive a specially engraved crystal football and the presentation will be shown this coming Saturday on Sky Soccer Saturday.

Coyle though admitted that delighted as he was to win the award there can be no place for celebration with us not yet having reached our goal which is a place in the Premier League.
