Newcastle United's Chris Hughton has received his second successive award as the Coca-Cola Championship manager of the month ahead of todays home game. Caretaker manager Chris, who has seen the team to the top of the table also gave credit to his colleagues Colin Calderwood and Paul Barron.
Hughton told Sky Sports News how he is enjoying his job at Newcastle;
"It's very pleasing, but it's very much an award for this group of lads and the staff I've got working with me. It's very much a team award.
I'm certainly enjoying it at the moment. It's very difficult not to when you've got a group of lads performing as they are, and we're at the right end of the table.
But I know there are going to be difficult times ahead of us. There are times when we're going to be stretched and perhaps we're going to get the injuries that other teams have already had this season.
I've enjoyed the challenge, and it has been a real challenge at times, but there are certain aspects which have been made easier by the staff that we have and the group of players that we have."
