MICHAEL DUFF NAMED DECEMBER MANAGER OF THE MONTH

13 January 2023

Our Head Coach scoops back-to-back accolades with the Reds going unbeaten in Sky Bet League One during December.

The gaffer has been named the Sky Bet League One Manager of the Month for December, picking up the award for the second month running.

Wins over Peterborough United, Burton Albion and Fleetwood Town helped the Reds build on their momentum already established in November with another unbeaten month in which they garnered 10 points from four games to go fourth in the League One table.

On winning the award, Duff said: "It’s nice to be recognised again by winning this award. It’s representative of the hard work and dedication that my players and staff have shown.

“It was a great achievement to go two full months unbeaten in the league and we keep working day in, day out to improve. Thank you to my players and staff. They are the ones who make it possible."

He said: “An unbeaten month, and a great away win at fancied promotion candidates Peterborough, gave Michael’s Barnsley a terrific boost towards the play-off places.”

Sky Sports’ EFL pundit Don Goodman said: “It’s back-to-back awards for Michael Duff and they’ve been richly deserved. Two months unbeaten has put Barnsley in an enviable position and they’ll be keen to continue this run into the New Year.”
