Ange Postecoglou has been named on the shortlist for Scottish Football Writers' Association Manager of the Year.
The Celtic boss has been nominated alongside three fellow managers in the shape of Aberdeen's new boss Barry Robson - who is looking to land third spot after a stunning run of form in charge - Stephen Robinson of St Mirren, who guided the Buddies to a top six finish and still in the hunt for Europe, and Dunfermline's League One title winning boss James McPake.
Postecoglou himself has already tasted double success this season following the League Cup Final win over Rangers at Hampden before following that up with a second consecutive Scottish Premiership title. He won the same two trophies in his debut campaign but he can go one better this time around with the chance of lifting the Scottish Cup and completing a domestic Treble.

He missed out on the famous old trophy last season but is now on the cusp of winning it for the first time with Scottish Championship side Inverness Caley Thistle standing in the way of the Hoops gaffer and a domestic clean sweep.
In 35 league outings, only St Mirren and Rangers have beaten the champions, who have chalked up 31 wins on the way.
They returned to the Champions League group stage this season and will be back in the big time next term after title success.
The winner of the William Hill Manager of the Year prize will receive their trophy at the SFWA dinner on Sunday, May 28 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Glasgow.
