Gerard Houllier today dedicated the club's dual Barclaycard Manager of the Month award for March to everyone at the club.

Earlier today both Ged and Phil Thompson were confirmed as the joint recipients which sparked natural worry throughout supporters who are hoping it doesn't bring the customary curse.

"This honour is something we will share. It's for the staff and the players. We have won it together," said the boss.

"It's the same philosophy for this award as it is when one of my squad wins player of the month. They have not won it because they play an individual sport like tennis. They win it because they are part of a team.

"We never take anything away from individual achievement but at this club we win things by working hard for each other."
