Dick shortlisted for Manager of the Year

ARBROATH manager Dick Campbell has been nominated for the Scottish Football Writers’ Association (SFWA) Manager of the Year award.

The legendary Lichties boss has seen his side exceed all expectations this season to finish second in the Championship, narrowly missing out on the title.

Despite disappointment at losing out to Kilmarnock, Campbell could still guide the Angus side to the Premiership via the play-offs.

The veteran boss is up against other big names in Scottish football for the gong.

Steve Clarke, who guided Scotland to their first major tournament in 23 years and is on the verge of another, is also nominated.

Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou, Robbie Neilson of Hearts and Ross County manager Malky Mackay are the others up for the award.

The winner will collect their trophy at the SFWA dinner in Glasgow on May 8.
