Upon learning of his Blue Square 'Manager of the Month' award, Quinn was quick to share the credit with the players and supporters.

"First and foremost it's an award that needs to be shared by everyone, especially by the players and the fans," he said.

"I don't know how big the champagne is but perhaps we'll get the paper cups out and give everyone a taste of it, because everyone deserves it."

Quinn is the first manager this season to pick up a second monthly award, after scooping the November prize too.

"It's been a great season up to this point and there's a lot of hard work gone into it," he added.

"All I can do as a manager is prepare the team and organise them and give them the belief that we can win games of football, but they've got to go out there, along with the fans, and make it happen.

"So it's an award that needs to be shared with everyone connected with the club, and with the players and the fans first and foremost. It's great because it tells you that you're doing something right and for me it's success that should be shared by everyone.

"It's great for the team and it's great for the club. I don't even like champagne, I'd rather have a beer any day!" he joked.

Quinn will be presented with his award before a forthcoming home match at the Abbey Stadium.

The U's boss was previously named Manager of the Month for the month of November and was presented with the award before the next match at home to Weymouth, which the U's won 1-0.
