Bolton Wanderers' boss Sam Allardyce is heading to Worthy Farm to see the likes of Arctic Monkeys, The Killers and The Who, after the buying a VIP package for the festival in a charity auction. Allardyce purchased the tickets at HMV Football Extraganza held in London in aid of the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy charity. The evening, which honoured the career of striker Teddy Sheringham, was attended by a host of football stars - and is the sister event of the Silver Clef lunch which annually honours musicians. The Bolton boss was initially unsuccessful in buying the VIP package - which includes access to the festival, helicopter flights in and out plus access to an exclusive campsite - losing out to the winning bid of £10,500. However organisers then arranged for a second package if Allardyce was prepared to match the winning bid, which he did, booking his place at this year's festival. For those not fortunate enough to manage a top flight football team, regular tickets for the festival go on sale at 9am on April 1 - though would-be festival goers had to register in advance to be eligible to buy tickets. The festival takes place between June 22-24." http://www.nme.com/news/glastonbury/27199[/i] :drink: ZIDER [/quote]    -  HTML is OFF | Forum Code is ON   Check here to include your profile signature.
