11 Glastonbury 2022 acts and the football teams they support
These artists won’t be short of support when it comes to the Glastonbury Festival, but who can count on their support when the football season gets back under way? Planet Sport finds out.
Fatboy Slim - Supports Brighton
However, the DJ and record producer does have a skeleton in his closet, and it's not just the acoustic version of Caravan of Love he performed with the Housemartins.

Roisin Murphy - Supports no one
Solo songstress Roisin Murphy was formerly the frontwoman for dance act Moloko, whose 2000 release The Time is Now was all over Sky's Premier League coverage from 2004 onwards.
Speaking in 2008, she said her family back home in Ireland "love that my music comes on when they're in the pub watching their Man United and their Liverpool".
Noel Gallagher - Supports Man City
Noel was at the Etihad for Manchester City's stunning come-from-behind win over Aston Villa on the final day of the season. Unfortunately, he missed out on the actual moment the Premier League title was confirmed, instead nursing a cut and two black eyes.
Paul McCartney - Everton (maybe)
In an interview with Radio Merseyside he said: "Here's the deal: my father was born in Everton, my family are officially Evertonians, so if it comes down to a derby match or an FA Cup final between the two, I would have to support Everton."
Robert Plant - Supports Wolves
Bobby Gillespie (Primal Scream) - Supports Celtic
Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie's greatest love of his life is not wife Katy England but Celtic.
Kendrick Lamar - Supports Tottenham (maybe)
His most important song, Alright, has been described as "a moment of weathered, enduring hope in the face of constant struggle".

Tom Ogden (Blossoms) - Support Manchester City
Gaz Coombes (Supergrass) - Supports Man Utd
Gaz Coombes from Supergrass is at OT. Massive United fan according to PA.

*Shreds Supergrass CDs.*
Don't let it be said that Coombes is a glory hunter, though. When he started supporting United they were really struggling. And I mean really struggling. In fact, it's a wonder they had any support at all. They were, get this, "in the lower reaches of the First Division at that point".
