Dundalk manager Stephen Kenny
Dundalk FC manager Stephen Kenny has been shortlisted for the PFAI’s Manager of the Year award.
The 43-year-old enjoyed arguably his most successful season as a manager last term by guiding Dundalk to a league and EA Sports Cup double, as well as reaching the Setanta Cup final and winning three out of four matches in the Europa League, including a hugely impressive victory away to Hajduk Split.
Also nominated for the award are Cork City manager John Caulfield, who came within 90 minutes of guiding the Rebels to the title in his first season in League of Ireland management, and Tony Cousins who helped Longford Town clinch the First Division title.
The PFAI awards take place in Dublin on Friday night with Richie Towell and Pat Hoban nominated for the Player of the Year awards and Sean Gannon and Daryl Horgan up for the Young Player of the Year prize.
