Walsall Head Coach Mat Sadler has been listed amongst the nominees for Sky Bet League Two Manager of the Month for August.Sadler, who has guided the Saddlers to third in the table, earning twelve points from their opening six games, has been nominated alongside Gareth Ainsworth (Gillingham), Paul Cook (Chesterfield), and Andy Woodman (Bromley).
Gareth Ainsworth (Gillingham)
Having assessed his squad over the final six weeks of last season, Ainsworth has instilled unity, a collective focus and a determination to go to the final whistle as Gillingham moved top of League Two with 14 points from six unbeaten games.
Paul Cook (Chesterfield)
Cook has brought in a group of younger players to implement his attacking style and to give extra energy to a side which made the play-offs in May. With 11 goals and 13 points from six August games, the approach seems to be working.
Andy Woodman (Bromley)
Bromley are League Two’s surprise packages no more, but neither familiarity with Woodman’s tactics, nor his admirable loyalty to his players failed to prevent his team amassing 12 points from six unbeaten games to start this campaign.
The winner of the award will be announced on Thursday, 11th September.
