The Bluebirds have had an international break since their last competitive action. While away, the City boss was nominated for Sky Bet League One Manager of the Month following an August that contained five wins and a draw from six league matches.
As well as Brian's nomination, City goalkeeper Nathan Trott was also recognised for his excellent work, in the player category.
"I wouldn't vote for me," Brian humbly began. "I think you always have to have an appreciation for the work others are doing.
"For the Club though it is a sign we're doing really well. Whoever is chosen, it is great.
"Nathan has done really well. It's never easy to come into a new Club in that position, with as little time to work as he did. He's had a great impact on the team.
"He's helped us enormously to get some very important results in the first month of the season. We're very pleased with him. Hopefully he can continue to get even better."
