Our new signing, Tom Nichols, didn't take long to settle into life at Priestfield, claiming three goals and two assists, while Josh Umerah goals continued to help keep fellow relegation contenders Hartlepool United in the division, with three more arriving in the month.

 

Carlisle United’s Kristian Dennis has been nominated for the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month Award after scoring five goals and two assists in the month to lead the division with 21 goal contributions in 27 matches. Similarly, Conor McAleny played his part in Salford City’s improved form in January, helping himself to six goals in six games as the Ammies ended the month in play-off places.
