David Jeffrey has been named top manager for April

Linfield boss David Jeffrey has been voted Harp manager of the month for a record 23rd time.

The Blues supremo took the April award after his side won the Premier League title for the third year running.

The Belfast team went on to complete a hat-trick of league and cup doubles and they also have the CIS Cup in the trophy cabinet at Windsor Park.

"I cherish these awards greatly and this one is as big a thrill as the first," said Jeffrey.
