Gera short-listed for award Posted on: Thu 01 May 2008
ZOLTAN Gera has been nominated for April's Coca-Cola Championship Powerade Player-of-the-Month award.
The 29-year-old midfielder is in the running for the honour after scoring the winner in Albion's 1-0 Black Country derby success at Wolves and breaking the ten-goal barrier for the season with the second strike in the Baggies' 2-1 victory at Norwich.
His scintillating form helped the table-topping Baggies clinch automatic promotion thanks to a haul of 12 points from 18.
Gera is up against Sheffield United's James Beattie, Hull City's Ian Ashbee and Stoke City's Glenn Whelan for the gong.

I wonder who's on the panel?
Whelan is a left-field choice, whereas Delap has been consistently top-drawer for months.

An interesting decision. He played well at Colchester and was better against Bristol, but Delap has been far more consistent over the month.
That said, well done Glenn. I reckon Ashbee might win it

some people can only see his long throws and think that's all he contributes

Delap has been outstanding this second half of the season. His work rate is second to none, he passes it simple and covers in front of the back 4 for any loose balls. Well done Rory lad!

Whelan won't get it and TBH I can't for the life of me see why he's even been nominated.
