Pete Doherty Takes On Tabloid Press At Celebrity Soccer Match

May 19, 2008
Pete Doherty Takes On Tabloid Press At Celebrity Soccer MatchTeam Babyshambles and Pete Doherty came up against the tabloid press yesterday (May 18th) during a soccer tournament in East London.

The band, who were defending their crown at the tournament, were matched against Gordon Smart’s Bizarre team in the second round.

Despite Doherty’s vow to “snap Smart in half”, the match went by without incident and resulted in a 1-1 draw.

The Soccer Six tournament was eventually won by dance act Faithless after Babyshambles were knocked out in the semi finals.
