Boyzone and Westlife stars Shane Lynch , Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden buy lower league football club Chorley FC - and want their celebrity friends to come to games


They are hoping to  drum up support from the likes of fellow 1990s pop star Dane Bowers and EastEnders legend Dean Gaffney .

Even though they are not really fans of having 'celebrity friends', they joked that they are hoping to drum up support from the likes of fellow 1990s pop star Dane Bowers and EastEnders legend Dean Gaffney. The Mirror revealed earlier this year the group have come together to buy shares in Chorley FC, where they also plan to perform a series of concerts, although it is now just two of them and the Westlife star. Westlife soared to fame in 1998 when they were formed in Dublin, with the original line-up also featuring Brian McFadden, who later left in 2004 (pictured as Kian Egan, Mark Feehily, Nicky Byrne and Shane Filan in 2010)
