CLAYTON Donaldson was the unanimous man of the match in City's 4-2 home defeat against Accrington Stanley.

The 22-year-old striker was our choice as top man and also received the most nominations as star performer from our readers.

His display means he collected three points towards the Evening Press Player of the Year and Player of the Month standings, as well as a bonus two points for the monthly award having topped our fans' poll.

Midfielders Neal Bishop (two) and Emmanuel Panther (one) also received points for both contests as our second and third-highest rated players.
