Linfield boss David Healy collects his Manager of the Month trophy from NIFWA Chair Michael Clarke

Linfield boss David Healy is the NIFWA Manager of the Month for August.

The Blues made a fine start to the domestic campaign with wins over Ballymena United, Dungannon Swifts, Glenavon and Loughgall before drawing with Portadown.

Healy's win completed a double for Linfield, with Joel Cooper named Player of the Month.

Healy said: "August was a good month for us. I was disappointed we failed to beat Portadown as we had a fantastic opportunity to finish the month with maximum points but no manager will complain about taking 13 points from the first five games.

"It's up to us to build on this solid start to the season."
