Will it be third time lucky for Shrewsbury Town boss Micky Mellon?

The Town chief, whose side are third in the division, is among four nominees in the frame to claim the Football League award for November.

Mellon has made a flying start to his tenure at the Greenhous Meadow helm, which began in the summer. He was also shortlisted for the award for August and October.

He will face competition from Wycombe Wanderers boss Gareth Ainsworth, Southend chief Phil Brown and Newport County manager Justin Edinburgh.

Town have kicked on after a fine October, which saw them clock up four league wins from five before pushing Premier League leaders Chelsea close in the Capital One Cup.

And Mellon's ability to maintain a charge both in the league and FA Cup last month has impressed the selectors again. Town defeated League One Walsall, via a first-round replay, to advance in the cup while also beating Dagenham, Mansfield and most recently promotion rivals Burton Albion in League Two.

A 3-2 defeat to Exeter City 10 days ago was the team's first in seven league games, snapping a six-match winning streak. But they bounced back from that setback on Saturday with a 1-0 home win against Burton.

A statement released by the Football League read: "(Micky) has impressed with his ability to juggle Cup success with consistency in the League, all with a style that is pleasing to watch. Three wins from four, particularly the 1-0 triumph over promotion rivals Burton Albion, kept Mellon's Shrews flying high."

n Town have unveiled a new festive ticket offer for fans hoping to attend the forthcoming home league games against Morecambe and Wycombe.

Supporters who buy their tickets together for both games can access junior prices costing from £10 and adult tickets from £35 overall.

Fans can vote for their goal of the month for November on the club's website. Town netted 10 times in league and cup in the last month.
