LMA DOUBLE FOR STEVE COPPELL
Reading manager Steve Coppell has been honoured with the LMA’s highest accolade, by his fellow managers, for the second year running. At a packed Awards Dinner held at the Crowne Plaza hotel, Nottingham, Coppell was received the coveted LMA Manager of the Year Award, just 12 months after receiving the same award.
The Royals followed a season in which they were promoted to the top flight for the first time, with an amazing 8th place in the Premiership, narrowly missing out on qualification for the UEFA Cup.
In a poll amongst all Football League and Premiership managers, Coppell was the overwhelming winner.
In the other Award Categories, Sir Alex Ferguson was the Barclays Manager of the Year. Roy Keane received the award as the Coca Cola Championship Manager of the Year, whist Yeovil Town’s Russell Slade and Hartlepool United’s Danny Wilson were voted Coca Cola League One and League Two winners respectively.
The LMA Special Achievement Award was presented to long serving Crewe Alexandra manager Dario Gradi.
Sir Steve crowned again

Which is who I was referring to. Should have been more precise and I apologise.

The Premier Manager of the year award is basically 'Manager who's team won the premiership' award. I don't think it's ever been won by anyone who's team didn't win the league.nivek elyodThe Goat was fed Sir Alex Ferguson was the Barclays Manager of the Year.
