Short month, but i believe the whole squad should be made player of the month and get a bottle of fizz. Hard to single out any player and its been a good showing by the squad and would just be a nice touch to recognise the achievement of the squad this month.
If we had to single out one. Then i would pick Sambrook ever so slightly ahead of Pugh.

I would say Jamie himself should be up there, but Im sure he would step aside, and I would vote Pugh ... different class, far too good for this level, and we should all enjoy his "goals of the season" whilst they are here.
My vote would also go to Sambrook with Day, Pugh and Andrews all narrowly behind. The whole squad have been terrific though in very difficult circumstances.
I would vote for Graeme Andrews who is MR. CONSISTENCY. He does not always get the credit he deserves and I would be surprised if he is not being tracked by a League Club. When he plays with Jack Parkinson, it is one of the best partnerships in the League.
I would vote for Pugh, Sambrook, Daisy or Healy. Are we going to have an official poll, and the winner gets a big bottle of champaigne awarded to them at the game against Boreham Wood?
I haven't managed to get to many games due to work etc, but, I'd go for only one Joe Healy. His work rate is really good and when he gets the chance, he can score goals too. Naturally enough, closely followed by the rest of the team.
It's all good picking Mr Sambrook and the others, but where would any of them be without Pam with the teas.
Carrying out adequate risk assessment in the kitchen. Boiling Buxton's distilled water and adding that extra tea bag in the pot and pouring out the delights for the squad. That extra bit of caffine and motherly care has in my opinion boosted their strength and energy levels to a new height.
So, no matter who wins player of the month, praise must go to Pam.
Joe Healy for me, his giggsesque run against Dover just tips it for him in favour of Sambrook! theres a few who wouldnt get my vote...for obvious reasons!! and Daisy must be a shout for Manager of the Month, he's like a small,non league Ian Holloway...but less bald!
Its good when 4 or 5 people are up for Player of the month and the rest of the squad have all played well.
Pugh has scored 3 superb goals, 2 of them snorters from 25 yards. Healy has set up goals and scored aswell. Sambrook has been great at the back and made incredible tackles. Daisy has played well in most games and when he passes short the team do and we zip it about well. Andrews has also played very well alongside Sammy. Stella started the season iffy after a good pre season and had a mare at Dover but hes been good, very good and got better as the season has gone on and been rock solid. Cumbers runs his nuts off for us and i had heard he was lazy from Dover fans? and his link up play and passing is fantastic and he got 2 against Chelmsford.
Charlie made a rick at Dover and has survived 2 or 3 other scares / lapses in concentration, but then hes also saved certain goals at Dover and Bromley among others too and has been playing with an injury. Coyle wins most things in the air and is a strong full back and improves us in that area greatly, he does go a bit long and samey though when hitting it forward (only fault i can see), whereas Stella puts a lot into feet when coming forward. Parky has been playing in midfield with a hammy for 3 or 4 games out of positin and carrying a knock but hes got on with it and been involved in us knocking it around. Loui had a great start to the season until he was injured against Chelmsford.
The rest of the squad have all done their bit and been good enough and some are still learning and will make mistakes.
Plus we have Clarke, Pires and Cracknell nearly ready to come back.

So the question is when all three are fully fit who do we leave out or do they go on the bench as we dont want to change winning ways.
Would be good to see Pires show what he can do again and Clarkey is always worth a shout. Crackers against the other players in there I am not so sure about but its good to have him in the squad
