King of the SPFL: Dick Campbell Dominates Monthly Awards

PREMIERSHIP MANAGER OF THE MONTH:
NEIL CRITCHLEY wins his first SPFL award after an unbeaten January with Hearts. Since his appointment, he has collected 28 points from 17 games, having taken over when Hearts were bottom of the table with just two points from eight matches. Despite that historically poor start, Critchley has steered Hearts to seventh place, just seven points behind third-placed Dundee United.
