Owls manager scoops 2nd award

Last updated : 04 May 2012 By C. Morris

Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones has been rewarded for guiding his team to 4 wins and a draw from their 5 games last month by picking up the League One manager of the month accolade for April.

Victories against Huddersfield, Oldham, Carlisle and Brentford plus an away draw at Colchester have seen the Owls soar into 2nd place in the division and a win over Wycombe at Hillsborough on Saturday will see the club promoted to the Championship.

Jones also claimed the award for March and Wednesday made a mockery of the much fabled manager of the month curse by winning at promotion rivals Huddersfield in their next match.
