Alex Gilbey’s stoppage time thunderbolt against Harrogate Town has been nominated for Goal of the Month for January.
The MK Dons skipper unleashed a 20-yard screamer barely 90 seconds after the side had conceded an equaliser to the Sulphurites in a dismal affair at Stadium MK.

The Dons scorer faces competition from:
George Abbott – Accrington Stanley v NOTTS COUNTY
A second successive nomination for Abbott, who travelled almost as far as the ball did from the corner spot to meet it with perfect synchronicity and volley it back into the far corner of the net.
Shaun Whalley – Crewe Alexandra v ACCRINGTON STANLEY
Whalley’s quick thinking was followed by a slow-motion arc of beauty. Time stood still as his perfectly flighted lob over Crewe keeper Filip Marschall dropped delightfully in at the far post.
Cameron Congreve – Notts County v BROMLEY
Congreve’s teammates were as mesmerised as the Notts defenders he was dribbling through with a beguiling combination of stepovers and body swerves before steering home a low shot.
