Jones nominated for Manager of the Month Award

Last updated : 03 February 2009 By Michael Morris
After winning it last October City went on to lose three of the first four games played in November.

The Award seems to bring a curse with it where the winning manager has a mare the next month.

Jones is competing with Swansea's Robert Martinez, Jim Magilton of Ipswich and Paulo Sousa of Q.P.R.

Cardiff's record during the month is 3 wins and 2 draws. Both Q.P.R. and Ipswich have lost a game. Swansea with 5 wins and 1 draw including a win at Premier League Portsmouth makes them clear favourites to win.

The winner will be announced on Thursday.
