#19 Kasabian - Leicester City
2015/16 champions Leicester City were a surprise package that won the Premier League against all-odds last season. They were 5000/1 to win it and they did. Just to put that into context, there was a higher probability of alien life being discovered. As Claudio Ranieri joked at the start of this season, it was more probable that, ‘ET comes to Piccadilly Circus!’.
A band that was formed and raised in Leicester itself are the amazing Kasabian.
For a few familiar songs of theirs you have to look no further than the hit ‘Fire’ that was used as the official Premier League song from 2010/11 to 2012/13. Other recognisable hits of theirs include ‘Club Foot’, used in the first movie of the Goal series and ‘Underdog’ (used in the film ‘Takers’) – which typifies Leicester City. Needless to say, Kasabian are huge in the UK and completely rocked their home-town with an epic concert after Leicester City FC won the Premier League last season.
Absolute scenes there.
#18 Ed Sheeran - Chelsea
It’s safe to say Ed Sheeran is pretty popular these days. The English Pop/Folk singer is well known for his hit songs like ‘I See Fire’, ‘The A Team’ and ‘Thinking Out Loud’. While just this year he released two singles from an upcoming album called ‘Divide’ which instantly became hits. The 25-year-old English singer, who is of Irish descent, is a Chelsea fan, according to this tweet a few years ago.
However, he does state that his heart will forever be with Framlingham town FC!
