Up to second off the back of six wins and six clean sheets – it was quite fitting then that the Ammies’ number six should take home the Player of the Month award.
Salford were seven points behind leaders Leyton Orient at the beginning of the month but now sit just a point off the O’s.
Defender Carl Piergianni started the month in perfect fashion, netting the winner at Ebbsfleet United before grabbing a second against Sutton United.
Graham Alexander’s men also took a point from their clash with Barnet along with important victories against fellow promotion hopefuls Harrogate Town and Solihull Moors.
Add that to wins over Aldershot Town and Bromley and things are getting interesting again as the title race hots up.
