King Charles supports football team who have clinched promotion before Coronation

Football will mark the Coronation of King Charles III this weekend, with the new monarch's coronation on Saturday affecting football fixtures up and down the country.

It is a huge weekend of action, with plenty of promotions and relegations to be confirmed up and down the pyramid, but the King himself will be safe in the knowledge that his club Burnley have already secured their ascension to the top flight. The King revealed his support for the Clarets during a visit to the Lancashire town in 2010.

Manager Vincent Kompany has earned a huge achievement this season, with his side winning the Championship during his first season in charge. They will mark the Coronation by lifting the trophy on Monday afternoon, with their final home match of the season against Cardiff City set to be a joyous affair.
