Paul Hurst and Tom Cursons' flying start to life at the Jakemans Community Stadium has seen both men rightly recognised.

Hurst takes the manager of the month accolade weeks after returning to the club's dugout following a 15-year absence.

Perhaps he felt he had some lost time to make up for, and after a solid first few games Boston's season has burst into life.

They got the job done with narrow victories over Sutton United and Gateshead, before arguably their best performance since returning to the National League. Winning 6-3 at Lincolnshire foes Scunthorpe United kept the feel-good factor going. They ended the month with a sparkling 3-2 win at Forest Green Rovers with a sturdy stalemate at Tamworth tucked in between.

Hurst, the former Grimsby Town and Shrewsbury Town manager, saw off competition from Aldershot Town's John Coleman, January's winner Stuart Maynard (of York City) and Rochdale boss Jimmy McNulty.

He isn't the only new arrival to make an instant impression. Striker Cursons signed for the club two weeks after his new manager, and he has also hit the ground running.

Starting with winning goals against Sutton and Gateshead, he took no time at all to endear himself to his new public with a stunning hat-trick against Scunthorpe. He ended the month with another winner – this time at Forest Green.

Competition was high but he came out on top despite the form of York City's Josh Stones, David Ajiboye of Carlisle United and Rochdale hitman Mani Dieseruvwe.

Congratulations to the winning double act!
