Legend groups Oasis and Take That have had to scrap plans to play at the City of Manchester City Stadium.
Oasis
The groups are kicking off stadium tours in June 2009 and each wanted to perform at the City of Manchester Stadium, however Blues new owners ADUG were simply not interested.
Take That
Take That frontman Gary Barlow said…
‘They [MCFC] said they don’t need the money.’
Oasis had to resort to gigs at Manchester’s Heaton Park, while Take That will now play at the city’s Old Trafford Cricket Ground.
For years now, football stadiums the length and breath of Britain have come accustomed to summer events. Thousands flock to see the likes of Elton John perform at stadiums normally used to entertain football fans – plus the hosting clubs profit from otherwise closed arenas. Now City fans can rest assured no such events are likely to take place, well not in the foreseeable anyway.
