Kilmarnock boss Jim Jefferies has been named Bank of Scotland manager of the month for December 2002.

Jefferies guided Killie through December undefeated until the 1-0 loss to Rangers on Sunday.

That run included wins over Aberdeen A (1-0), Dundee H (2-0), Hibs H (2-1) and Dunfermline A (2-0).

They also held Celtic to a 1-1 draw at Rugby Park to take them within touching distance of third place.

Killie now sit four points behind third-placed Hearts. JJ is the first Killie manager to win this award since former manager Bobby Williamson won the award in Sept of 2000.
