Farsley Celtic may have hit the headlines due to delayed work laying its new pitch recently, but this evening the National League North side got a mention – of sorts – on national TV.
Singer Tulisa Contostavlos was reading out the football results to Chorley fan and fellow celebrity the Rev Richard Coles in camp on ITV’s I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here show.
She mentioned the Celts’ last game, which finished 1-0 to Chorley on Wednesday – but missed out the ‘s’ in Farsley, and read it as “Farley Celtic 0 Chorley 1”.
The Celts were quick to point out the mistake, putting out a cheeky post on ‘X’ scolding the N-Dubz singer:
Farsley fans are often known to chant “There’s only one ‘F’ in Farsley” at games. Perhaps Tulisa’s gaffe will prompt them to change the song to “There’s only one ‘s’ in Farsley”…
