PHIL Parkinson has been short-listed for League One manager of the month for April.

The Bantams took 13 points from a possible 18 with four wins, including the 4-0 thrashing of third-placed Walsall.

Parkinson is up against Graham Alexander, who has masterminded Scunthorpe's late charge towards the play-offs, Wigan's promotion-winning Gary Caldwell and John Sheridan of Oldham.

The winner will be announced on Friday.
