Leyton Orient head coach Ian Hendon has been nominated for the League Two manager of the month award.

Hendon must be the favourite to take the award after guiding the O's to the top of the table with a 100 per cent record in the opening five games.

He is up against Plymouth's Derek Adams, Wycombe boss Gareth Ainsworth and Portsmouth manager Paul Cook.

Midfielder Dean Cox has also been nominated for the League Two player of the month. His form has caught the eye with two goals and four assists in the first five matches.

Cox is up against Cambridge United striker Barry Corr, former Orient forward Jabo Ibehre and Wycombe defender Aaron Pierre.
