2016/17 Championship Manager of the Season

[Toony]

League campaign now finished and the positions are finalised, still the play-offs to conclude.

Not sure when the awards night is but it will be coming up soon.

Who gets it?

[Bluebird Hewitt]

Easy one for me. Nigel Clough not only kept Burton up but made them a difficult team to play against as well regardless of who they were up against.

Huddersfield are second.

[Pig on the Wing]

Nigel Clough for me.

Keeping Burton in the Championship (relatively comfortably) is a fantastic achievement. Odds-on favourite to go down, he's worked miracles with a budget of next to nothing.

I went with Wagner, I thought he was great on XFactor a few years ago

I dont think benitez can win this they should have walked the league.

[Christopher Wright]

It was a toss up between Chris or Nigel I just feel that after last years disappointment Chris has kept his team together and added well to the playing squad. It would have been so easy for Brighton to have fallen apart. As for Nigel I do believe he is under estimated as a manager and has done extremely well to finish this season were they did, but you also have to factor in that there were at least three clubs who were very poor this season and deserved to be relegated.  Nigel comes a close second. I cannot see any need to vote for any other managers apart from these two and especially not Wagner who has let down the integrity of the league by his team selection for the last two league games and what a suprise he doesn't pick these players for the play offs, I know who I won't be cheering for on bank holiday Monday.
