Paul Jewell and Danny Murphy have both been rewarded for their good run with their clubs Wigan and Charlton respectively by been named Manager and Player of the month for September. Jewell's newly-promoted side went through the month unbeaten and established themselves in the top half of the table. The Latics collected seven points from a possible nine, recording away wins at West Brom and Everton.
The Londoners are flying high in the Premiership in second place and Murphy's contribution has been crucial. He scored both goals in the 2-1 victory over West Brom and his performances against Birmingham and Chelsea led to many tipping him for England selection. Murphy is the second Addicks player to receive the prize this term following Darren Bent's August award.I would have to say that both awards are pretty well earned by both Jewell and Murphy. At the start of the season I said that Wigan would be relagated but with the start they have got of to I think they might just stay up. Danny Murphy has been playing superb this season for Charlton and I was sure he was going to be called up to the England for their two recent World Cup qualifiers.
