Grant Shenton has become the third Player Of The Month of the 23-24 season, after edging out Jamie Rother to capture the award.
The experienced keeper has been in excellent form in the early stages of this campaign, keeping eight clean sheets in his fourteen appearances in all competitions.
His assured presence between the sticks enabled us to see off higher league opposition in both the FA Trophy and the Manchester Premier Cup at the start of the month, and overall he has been beaten just twice in six games.
Manager Alex Frost had this to say about Grant’s success:
‘Shents has been absolutely superb since he joined us just over a year ago, and has been a massive part of our excellent start to this season in both league and cup competitions.’
‘He is such a good organiser and on the few occasions when our defence has been breached, he has made some unbelievable saves.’
‘I am delighted that the extent of his contribution to the team’s success has been recognised with this award.’
Congratulations, Grant – here’s to a few more clean sheets in the weeks and months to come!
