The January nominations for the Sky Bet League 2 Player of the Month Award are:
Ryan Clarke (Oxford United) – goalkeeper
Posted an unblemished record during January with clean sheets in each of his side`s four games. Organised his defence superbly and pulled off a number of saves, none better than an acrobatic stop which earned a point at Exeter City.
John-Joe O’Toole (Bristol Rovers) – midfielder
Three goals in four games for the attack-minded midfielder who has been given licence to go forward. His all-action displays during January were highlighted by a 90th-minute volleyed winner against West Country rivals Exeter City.
Jon Parkin (Fleetwood Town) – striker
Having worked hard to get over a hamstring injury, the veteran has allied fitness to his natural strength. His clever hold-up play was supplemented with clinically-taken goals in wins over Accrington Stanley, Hartlepool United and Burton Albion.
Gary Roberts (Chesterfield) – midfielder
Re-discovered his early season form to inspire Chesterfield’s charge to the top of the table. Offered a creative spark and scored in four separate games, including a delightfully-hooked lob in the 3-1 win at Northampton Town.
ALL WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON FRIDAY FEBRUARY 7 2014
The judging panel comprises Sky Sports Football League expert Don Goodman; Football League Head of Communications John Nagle; League Managers’ Association Director Olaf Dixon and Sky Bet Head of Football Paul Wiggins.
