MK Dons great run through February has earned Russell Martin a nomination for League One's Manager of the Month prize.

Dons won three, drew two and lost one in the league last month, climbing as high as 11th spot as Dons moved themselves away from the drop zone and into midtable, scoring 14 goals along the way.

Martin will have to contend against Neil Critchley of Blackpool, Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson and Burton's Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.

In the running for Player of the Month, Peterborough striker Jonson Clarke-Harris, Lincoln midfielder Jorge Grant, Hull striker Mallik Wilks and Sunderland hit-man Charlie Wyke will go head-to-head for the gong.

The winners will be named on Friday morning.
