Michael Mulhern has been named the FAWNL Division One Manager of the Month for January. 

Boro Women completed a perfect run in January, beating a strong Hull City side 2-0 before 3-1 wins over Leeds United and Stockport County. 

It is Michael Mulhern's first MOTM award for the club and he said: "It’s always nice to be acknowledged like this but it’s not about me. It’s all about the team, the support staff away from the pitch who work so hard and don't get any recognition, everyone's doing their bit. 

"It means the whole team is doing well. Our last loss was in September and it just shows the progress we've made over the past five months. Our aim is to keep improving in everything we do."
