Elliott swept the board, picking up nine gongs at the supporters' clubs' awards night on Tuesday, and followed that up with a similar feat in the official awards the following evening.

The 29-year-old was named Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year, adding the Goal of the Season trophy for his left-foot rocket against Charlton in March.

But the former Bournemouth man, who signed a new three-year contract at the end of March, is not resting on his laurels, and already has an eye on next season, and a possible hat-trick: "Hopefully there's more to come.

"You start turning your attentions to next season now.

"I've enjoyed my football, and it's worked out really well for me.

"I'll have a nice couple of weeks in the summer and enjoy it and then start focusing on next year.

"Thoughts are already turning towards next season, and mentally you never need a break because you're playing football.

"You never get tired of that, so I'll have a couple of weeks away to recharge physically and get ready for next year."

After winning the title this time last year, he said: "You want to be consistent, and hopefully that's brought me some rewards, and that will be the aim again next season.

"Certain standards have been set, and if I dip below them, somebody else will take my place."

And he has certainly lived up to that statement, with a string of dazzling performances, and he added: "I got injured early on in my first season here, so I was in and out of the team, and last season people probably didn't know what to expect of me.

"Hopefully I set a decent standard, and it's nice to win the award on the back of keeping that up.

"Getting the awards is especially pleasing, and I signed a contract because I believe we've got a good squad, and I enjoy being here and coming to work with the lads every day. I believe that the club's progressing.

"I've settled here really well, everyone's been really welcoming, I'm happy where I'm living, and it helps that the people at the club have been good.

"We've got a good set of lads, it's not cliquey, everybody gets on, and whoever comes into this group of lads will find it easy to settle."

And he admits it is a massive honour to be named a double winner, backing up last year's success: "If you sit down and had a look at some of the past winners, there's some great names on there, so it's very humbling.

"It's been a good couple of days.

"I'm pleased because, especially looking back, you realise some of the football that's been played has been really good and it brings home to you what a good squad we've got.

"That makes the awards especially pleasing.

"To be held in good regard from the lads as well, especially because we've got a really good bunch, and also we've got some really good players, so the awards mean a lot to me.

"It's always nice to get recognition, the supporters have been good to me since I arrived, they've always given me good backing, and getting an award from the rest of the lads tops it off.

"They supporters see your effort every week, and the lads see it day in, day out and know what's gone on on the training ground and the different pressures you face.

"The awards probably recognise slightly different aspects, and it's great to win both."

His goal of the season strike was one of only two goals from the wide man this season, however, and Owen Coyle feels he can chip in with a lot more over the course of his new deal, and Elliott admitted: "It would be lovely to get more goals, it was a relief to get the one against Charlton, because it was a long time coming.

"It would have been embarassing to go through the whole season without scoring, even our centre halves are chipping in!

"I was lagging, so I'll go away and work on getting myself fit for pre-season and then start worrying about adding a couple of goals."

Coyle's football philosophy is tailor-made for Elliott, looking to get the ball down and get it wide, and he added: "The gaffer's come in and let everyone express themselves and we've responded to that and hopefully we'll be able to push on next year.

"He enjoys watching wide men, which is obviously great for me.

"He wants us to relax and express ourselves, and there's no problem if you make a mistake as long as you're doing the right thing and putting in a shift for the team.

"As a player, you can't ask for much more than that."

Meanwhile, Alex MacDonald was the recipient of the inaugural Youth Team Player of the Year award, receiving the shield from Julia Hatfield, granddaughter of the first Burnley chairman, Albert Jobling, and current chairman Barry Kilby.
