Darlington manager Martin Gray said that he was "hugely delighted" with the EvoStik League's manager of the Year award on Saturday night.
MG guided Quakers to the league title at the first time of asking after winning the First Division North play offs the year before, and he said; "It was a real team effort both on and off the field. It wasn't just about me, but also the rest of the coaching team who supported me, and the players who made a supreme effort, especially over the remaining weeks of the season.
"And there was also a tremendous amount of backing from our volunteers and supporters."
Here are Quakers' officials with four trophies presented at the EvoStik League presentation night at Blackpool on Saturday night.
The club was formally presented with the League Championship trophy, as well as a permanent memento, while MG won the Manager of the Year award, as well as a permanent memento.
