He polled 45.3% of the man of the match vote to give him top place ahead of Cork whose share of the vote was 35.5%. Tyrone Mears, picking up his first point of the season, edged above fellow full back Danny Fox to take third place with 5% of the vote.
The gap between the top two in the player ratings was narrow. Eagles was again the winner with a rating of 8.68 out of 10 and Cork was right behind, and his rating was 8.60. Again the two full backs were close but both missed out on the points here with Chris Iwelumo, who also scored twice, taking third place with a rating of 7.96 out of 10.
The six points won by Eagles now see him right on the tail of Bikey with Cork closing in too in third place.
Voting is currently in progress for the Millwall game man of the match. This is on the front page of the site and will run until the end of Tuesday. Wednesday to Friday will then see the poll for the September Goal of the Month.
