What football team does Chris support?

paradise2012 · 11-06-2012, 07:14 PM

Hi everyone.

I was just wondering if you could answer a question regarding Chris Martin and whether he likes football.

Does Chris like football, if he does which teams or teams does he support? Is the England national one of them by any chance?

Please let me know.

Cheers,

paradise2012

Hasn't he once said he supports the team that looks the coolest? He isn't really a football fan, Jonny and Will are though

^

And Jonny supports Tottenham, I believe.

No one, he would probably hope Exeter City do well, Plymouth Argyle and Torquay United he may also have soft spots for.

Correct.

Chris doesn't really support a team, as far as I know, but I do recall a (funny) scandal from the 2005 World Cup...

EDIT: Oh, and he DID support the National Team in the same world cup. Anyone remember this???

Do The Crouch - Coldplay - YouTube

(In honour of England hero Peter Crouch. Good memories!)

Jonny and Will are the big football guys in the band. Jonny supports the Spurs and Will supports Southhampton.

Guy's not a sports fan, but I've read he supports Raith Rovers for sentimental reasons, as they're his hometown team.

Never heard anything about what team (if any) Chris supports.

Just a correction: It was the '06 World Cup, I just can't type,lol.

Coeurli · 12-06-2012, 07:44 PM

^Oh, that's what I thought haha

I was like "wait...the last one was in 2010....one every 4 years..."

The band congratulated Exeter City on the official website when they got promoted a few years ago, so although Chris might not be a huge football fan I'd guess that's who he would support

Not being 100% up on the Football League, I could be wrong, but that's the closest he has to a local side, yes?

It must be Arsenal or Manchester United

Rapper Jay-Z and Chris Martin of Coldplay look on during the Barclays Premier League match between Arsenal and Manchester United at Emirates Stadium on April 28, 2013 in London, England.

Coeurli · 28-04-2013, 07:21 PM

Is it me or he seems to be more into football than he used to say ?

Tash · 28-04-2013, 07:26 PM

I just remembered he also went to an Arsenal game in February
