In the fan-voted award for the month just gone, our left-winger was up against Hannah Blundell, Maya Le Tissier and Millie Turner after the quartet helped the Reds to achieve an unbeaten run across the 28 days.
It turned out to be one of the closest polls we’ve ever seen for a Player of the Month award at United, with each nominee receiving over 20 per cent of the vote, but it was Galton who proved to be the pick of the bunch ahead of the defensive trio.
Galton missed out on the first month of the new year for Marc Skinner’s side as she worked her way back from a small injury that kept her sidelined since the winter break.
