CHIS GETS MANAGER OF THE MONTH AWARD

Gordon took over as Interim Manager after the departure of Ian McCall in March and during his short time in charge he has made a significant impact. At the beginning of April, his side narrowly lost 3-2 to Hibernian at Easter Road, following a similar narrow defeat against champions Celtic. However, victories over Rangers, Hearts and Dundee (not to mention a Scottish Cup semi final victory) together with a 1-1 draw with Livingston have meant that United have secured 10 points from a possible 13 in April and are now 4 points clear of bottom placed Dunfermline in the Bank of Scotland Premierleague.

The award was presented to Gordon at Tannadice this afternoon.
