Cabinteely, the League of Ireland team from County Dublin, have announced plans for a friendly match against rock band Muse on April 4th.

Currently third in the league having won, lost and drawn their opening three games of the season, Cabinteely have decide a run out against Glastonbury headliners Muse is exactly what they need to get into full swing of a new season.

Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme, Dominic Howard and their crew will take on a Cabinteely XI at their 1,620 capacity stadium, Stradbrook Road.

‘Lining out for Cabo will be current manager Eddie Gormley, Muse bassist Chris Wolstenholme’s son Alfie, who is a former player of the club, and many more to be announced,’ the club said.




‘Managing the Cabo XI will be Tony Livingstone, who was Alfie’s manager when he played with the club. It will be free admission to this game. We would like to thank Muse for taking time out of their schedule for this event, we hope to see you all there!’

Cabinteely are no stranger to the odd PR stunt, it was only a few months ago the Cabo offered one fan a free season ticket if you win the top flight with the Dublin-based club.

It’s a great move, but one we shouldn’t be surprised about given the Cabo are by far our most loved Irish football club. I mean, if Muse or Football Manager recognition wasn’t enough then their tapping up of Yaya Toure should do it..

Happy birthday Yaya Toure! Transfer window is June 1st?you can have free in on May 22nd for our game vs Cobh also! pic.twitter.com/9N5Fi87eAK — Cabinteely F.C. (@Cabinteely_FC) May 13, 2015

They’re still not winning you over? Alright, how about rejecting the approach of Liverpool’s Mario Balotelli? That has to be a winner..

Stop calling us, stop texting us @FinallyMario, we don't need you for our game on Friday versus @AthloneTownFC pic.twitter.com/2z4CDKyN86 — Cabinteely F.C. (@Cabinteely_FC) June 8, 2015
