Burnley Football Club has been nominated in two categories at the 2012 Football League Awards. The matchday magazine, Claret & You, is nominated for the third time in four years in the Best Matchday Programme Category. And in a double coup for the club's media & marketing departments, the Clarets Player 'Bringing The Boys To You' video has been shortlisted in the Best Marketing campaign.

Claret and You, entirely designed and produced in-house, has consistently tried to bring supporters the very best matchday magazine, packed with exclusive features, comment and photography. The magazine won the award in 2009 and, following our Premier League campaign was shortlisted again in 2011, only losing out to Middlesbrough.

Bringing The Boys To You has earned Burnley Football Club its first ever marketing nomination. The Clarets Player video, which can be seen in the window above, is a hugely popular social media campaign to promote Player, the club's premium content site, using the first team squad in everyday household situations.

The full shortlists are as follows:

Brighton & Hove Albion – Seagull

Huddersfield Town – Give us an H
Notts County – The Mag
Swindon Town – Swindon
