Burnley star Andre Gray clinches top Championship award

Burnley's Andre Gray has been named the SkyBet Championship Player of the Year.

The 24-year-old striker claimed the prize at the Football League awards night in Manchester on Sunday.

Gray has netted 24 goals for Sean Dyche's Clarets this season to lead the second tier scoring charts, guiding the Lancashire club to second place where they currently sit two points behind leaders Middlesbrough.

In League One, midfielder Bradley Dack picked up the third division award for his brilliant individual season for promotion-cashing Gillingham while Kemar Roofe landed the League Two prize for his 17 goals with Oxford United.
