Redknapp scoops manager prize

PORTSMOUTH manager Harry Redknapp has won the latest Barclays Manager of the Month award.

A haul of 14 points during April saw the south coast side secure their Premiership status for another season — and earned Redknapp the award for a fifth time.

Meanwhile, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard was named April’s Player of the Month, with the Reds’ Spanish goalkeeper Jose Reina claiming the Barclays Golden Gloves Award for the 2005-06 season.
