Cardiff City head coach Brian Barry-Murphy has been named the League One manager of the month for December.
The table-topping Bluebirds won five of their six league fixtures during the month, collecting 15 points from a possible 18.
"There was a lot of sacrifice during the month of December," said 47-year-old Barry-Murphy.
"We asked a lot because of how important it was with so many games. The lads put in some incredible performances in a condensed period.
"I have a real gratitude for everyone who made it possible for us to have such a positive month."
The former Manchester City academy coach was recruited from Leicester City last summer, following Cardiff's relegation from the Championship.
The other nominees for the December award were Ian Evatt (Blackpool), Michael Skubala (Lincoln City) and former Swansea City boss Luke Williams (Peterborough United).
