United's Keiren Westwood
Official PFA press release :


Westwood was recognised by football fans across the country, who voted on givemefootball.com and, for the first time, via text, for the month's best players across each League. Westwood has been rewarded for a string of fine performances between the sticks for promotion-chasing Carlisle.

Until their defeat against Nottingham Forest last night, Carlisle had racked up a club record 14 consecutive home wins to cement their place in the top two - and Westwood has more than played his part. He kept an impressive five clean sheets in March as Carlisle maintained their promotion push.

The Award, which has been running for 7 years, receives over 30,000 votes a month. 2UP, the new sponsors of the Award, have now added text voting to the mix so people can vote from the football ground as well as online after a game.

One lucky winner who voted for Westwood will be chosen to come to a Carlisle game and present the trophy to the player. The winner will be chosen at random and will be announced later in the month.

To vote, visit www.givemefootball.com or text the word VOTE and the TEAM and PLAYER to 84287.
