BetVictor Isthmian League Manager of the Month Awards- sponsored by Anderson Travel: September 2019

By Ian Townsend

The winners of the August Manager of the Month Awards- sponsored by the fabulous folk at Anderson Travel- have just been announced.

September was rather an exciting month in League and Cup, but we’re focusing on the former, and here are our Manager of the Month winners, sponsored by Anderson Travel.

Premier

Horsham Manager Dom Di Paola won so many of these last season, as his side powered to South East Playoff success, that we think he’s probably got one in nearly every room of the house. Well now he’s got one for the downstairs toilet too, as we’re sending him another! Horsham have had a fabulous start to life in the Premier Division and currently sit in second place. During September they won every league match, two of them away from home- beating Brightlingsea Regent, Cheshunt and Wingate & Finchley.

Congratulations to Dom and to all at the Camping World Community Stadium.

North

We’re heading to the other side of Southend- very much prettier than Southend itself- and visiting Burroughs Park, home of Great Wakering Rovers. Rovers picked up seven points from their three league matches in September, defeating Witham Town, walloping Romford and picking up a point at Basildon United, results which saw them break into the Playoff places. Congratulations go to Stephen Butterworth and his side in green and white.

South Central

Westfield had a magnificent September, and given it followed a superb August it’s hardly a flash in the pan! Three league matches saw three wins, and an aggregate score of thirteen-two in their favour- and although we don’t take cup matches into account here, it’s also worth mentioning an eight-nil hammering of FC Romaina in the Velocity Trophy.
If Tony Reid’s men carry on like this they might not need the playoffs this time around. Our plaudits go to Tony and his side at Woking Park.

South East

August has a horrendous month for Phoenix Sports, which makes the way they bounced back in September even more remarkable. Three league matches, three victories, ten goals put past East Grinstead Town, Whitehawk and Hythe Town- it was almost as if the previous month had been nothing but a bad dream! Our congratulations go to all at Mayplace Road, and especially to Sports manager Paul Bryon.
