Amazing

Speaking to 4BR, Foden’s Mark Wilkinson said: "The recent success of the band in winning the ‘Double’ has meant an amazing uptake in demand for tickets. It’s the first chance for people to see us in concert in Manchester with both trophies on display so you can see why it is proving so popular."
