Legendary metallers Motörhead are to sponsor an Under-10s children’s football team in Lincolnshire, England. Lincoln’s Greenbank B Team will bear the band’s name and Snaggletooth emblem on their jerseys, while classic Motörhead anthems will play as the team take to the pitch. Team manager Gary Weight told the BBC: "I knew Lemmy years ago and for him, I think the thought of a football team running out with the Motörhead logo made him chuckle a bit, so that’s where it’s come from. The hope is that we can go out on the football pitch and terrorise the opponents and come away worthy winners.”
