Noel Gallagher 'To Record Manchester City FA Cup Final Song'

April 24, 2011
Noel Gallagher 'To Record Manchester City FA Cup Final Song'Noel Gallagher has revealed that he has been approached to write an FA Cup final song for Manchester City.

The former Oasis guitarist, a long time fan, is one of a number of contenders, including Johnny Marr and comedian Jason Manford.

Gallagher said: "Someone called me from the club and asked if they could bounce a few ideas off me. If they asked seriously I don't know. Let's wait till they ask."

A source told the Daily Star: "The club wants to get some big names for a worthwhile song - and get the players involved too.

"It's still uncertain what will happen but having Noel Gallagher take part makes a lot of sense."

Sir Tom Jones is in talks with Stoke, who will play City in the final, to revamp his classic hit 'Delilah'.
