Hearts head coach Robbie Neilson has joined three Scottish Premiership bosses on the PFA Scotland manager of the year shortlist.
Celtic's Ronny Deila, Inverness manager John Hughes and Derek McInnes of Aberdeen make up the four-man list.
Neilson led Hearts to the Scottish Championship title - with a record points tally - in his first season in the role. Hearts have 90 points ahead of their final game of the season against Rangers.
Deila is set to lead Celtic to a double in his first season at the club, going into the final four games of the Scottish Premiership campaign with an eight-point lead over Aberdeen having already won the League Cup.
Deila had targeted the treble but his team were beaten by Inverness in the semi-finals of the William Hill Scottish Cup. Hughes also has Caley Thistle well on course for a top-three finish and their first European qualification before their final against Falkirk.
Aberdeen have already secured their first runners-up spot in the league for 21 years.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
