British musicians supported England's bid for 2018 World Cup

May 05, 2010
Fatboy Slim, former Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher, Inspiral Carpets' Clint Boon and a number of other British musicians have joined the campaign to support England's bid for 2018 World Cup. Each of them recorded a 18-second video to tell why FIFA should choose England to host the tournament.

In his video, Noel Gallagher says: «I think it's a travesty that in the whole history of that competition we've only had it once. It would bring the country together and the final will be just round the corner from my house».

These clips are a part of the campaign organized by British sportswear and equipment supplier Umbro. Titled I'm In, it aims to help England in the competition for the World Cup 2018.

Fatboy Slim is currently on tour in support of his album Here Lies Love, which he recorded in collaboration with David Byrne and released earlier this year.
