Allan Johnston wins September manager's award

Johnston is in his second season at Killie

Kilmarnock's two wins and a draw in September have earned their manager Allan Johnston the Scottish Professional Football League Premiership manager of the month award.

The Rugby Park side sit in fourth place in the table, three points off the pace set by Hamilton Academical.

They enjoyed over St Mirren in Ayrshire and drew with the Accies a week later.

And they ended the month with a 3-0 home win over Partick Thistle.

However, Killie exited the Scottish League Cup when they were defeated 1-0 by St Johnstone in the third round.
