Rodgers, Gray & McGlynn shortlisted for PFA Scotland manager award

The shortlist for PFA Scotland’s Manager of the Year award includes Brendan Rodgers, David Gray, and John McGlynn.

Rodgers’ side are on the verge of a clean sweep of the domestic leagues, and Celtic boss Rodgers won the award last year after an unbeaten treble in 2016-17.

A victory in Rodgers’ side’s Scottish Cup final next month would boost their chances of winning the League Cup and Premiership, as well as their improvement in their Champions League results.

Hibs have defeated every team in the Premiership this season, aside from St Mirren, to set a club record of 17 league games without losing in the process since December when they moved up the table from December.

Meanwhile, Falkirk are on the verge of promotion after winning the award last year for guiding the team to an unbeaten League 1 triumph.

Falkirk will reclaim the Premiership for the first time since 2010 if Livingston’s results are equal on Friday night when they play Hamilton.

The shortlist for PFA Scotland’s women’s manager of the year has also been announced.

The coaches are chosen by their peers as Rangers’ Jo Potter, Hibernian’s Grant Scott, Glasgow City’s Leanne Ross, and Motherwell’s Paul Brownlie.

With five games left, Rangers’ teams are vying for the SWPL title, while Potter, Scott, and Ross have their teams competing for the title. They also have the opportunity to face Glasgow City in the Scottish Cup final next month.

Meanwhile, Brownlie assisted Motherwell in reaching the Scottish Cup semi-finals after defeating them 4-0 by City.
