Jim and Dale scoop March Awards
[Saturday, 06 April 2019 10:00]
There is double delight for ‘Loons’ fans this morning with the news that Jim Weir and Dale Hilson are the Ladbrokes League 1 Manager and Player of the Month award winners for March.
For Jim, it is his second award of the campaign having also been nominated two months back.
It is a reward for guiding his side to home victories in March over the other three teams filling the top four berths in the league, including of course local rivals Arbroath last Saturday.
Dale is the first member of the Athies squad to win the player award this season.
Throughout the month of March, the Station Park fans favourite has been regularly nominated for the SPFL team of the week or the goal of the weekend, this most certainly is the case for his screamer last Saturday.
Let’s all hope that Jim is well in contention for another award come the end of April and that Dale and his teammates continue their rich vein of form as the season reaches what is sure to be a tense and exciting climax.
Congratulations to both.
