Oh, yes, because Burnley has been through some very challenging times and I'm trying to find ways of helping to regenerate and raise aspirations and self-esteem in that part of the world."Burnley were not in the Premier League at the time that Charles admitted his love for the club, but unfortunately they could be in danger of dropping back down the Championship unless they pick up some points this season.Following his admission of admiration for Burnley, the club offered him a VIP season ticket and a place in their directors' box, as a spokesperson said: "It's no surprise to see Charles reaffirming his support for Burnley Football Club as we know he keeps a close eye on our results."In fact, as part of our new season ticket package, we are sending a complimentary VIP season ticket to Charles and we hope to see him cheering on the Clarets from the directors' box next season."
