Linfield goalkeeper David Walsh named Player of the Month for December after not conceding a goal

Walsh did not concede goal in the month of December, keeping clean sheets against Coleraine, Dungannon Swifts, Glenavon and Glentoran.

Walsh said: "It's nice to be recognised. Sometimes goalkeepers are forgotten about and people don't appreciate how much we do in games, so it's nice to get an individual award.

"It was a good month for me but I wouldn't be able to do it without the outfield players in front of me."

Peter Campbell of Glenavon was runner-up for the December award, with Ryan Mayse of Portadown in third.
