Blue Square Manager Of The Month - April
May 1, 2008 1:10 PM
Oxford United‘s Darren Patterson has won the Blue Square Premier “Manager of the Month” award for April. Patterson‘s side won 6 out of their last 7 Blue Square Premier matches to finish 9th in the table, after spending much of the season below halfway. The side scored 15 goals with some outstanding attacking play that must have all U‘s fans licking their lips at the prospect of the 2008/09 campaign. The U‘s only defeat came in a hard fought encounter away at promotion chasers Torquay United. The 5-1 win over Farsley Celtic and the 3-1 win away at Ebbsfleet United were the highlights of a fantastic month.
