ROBBIE NEILSON has been named Premiership manager of the month for November a week after leaving Hearts to join MK Dons. 

The 36-year-old led the Jambos through an unbeaten league run last month that included a crucial 2-0 victory over Rangers at Tynecastle in his final game in charge.

Hearts recorded draws against St Johnstone and Motherwell before impressive wins over Motherwell and the Gers without conceding at the end of November.

Neilson has since departed to take the reins at English League One outfit MK Dons, with Ian Cathro replacing him in the Tynecastle hotseat.

The capital club drew 2-2 with Ross County last weekend with Jon Daly in charge temporarily and travel to face the Gers again at Ibrox on Saturday.
