Jamie Forrester has been named as the League 2 Powerade 'Player of the Month' for October following his goalscoring exploits during the month.

Forrester scored eight goals in four League 2 games during October. The 32-year-old ex-Saddler scored his second and third hat-tricks of the season in the month - one in the 5-0 win at Barnet and the other in the 7-1 demolition of Rochdale.
