Man City ace Phil Foden sparks fury with fishing-themed birthday party as neighbours blast ‘ridiculous' noise
PHIL Foden has angered some of his new neighbours after hosting a fishing-themed 25th birthday party - complete with a nightclub-style sound system, singer and DJs.
The Manchester City and England midfielder moved out of his previous home following noise complaints from neighbours and recently splashed out on a new mansion in a more rural part of Cheshire.

Foden's partner Rebecca, 24, posted on their son Ronnie's Instagram account videos of the party which showed 2018 The Voice singer Holly Ellison belting out dance tracks as partygoers enjoyed themselves.
The mum of three posted: 'The best night ever for my dads surprise fishing themed birthday party.
"Thankyou to everyone who came and made it such a special night... also thankyou to our dj @dusk7__ & special guest @ultrabeat_official & @hollyellisonmusic.
"Thankyou to @ledigo_events as always the best set up.'
Holly, 42, added in a post on TikTok: "What a night performing for @Phil Foden birthday celebrations! Incredible energy, amazing people & a night to Remember."
But the party was not welcomed by all, with some locals complaining that the sound of 'Jamaican dancehall' music could be heard for miles around.
Jayne Jennings complained: 'Our local famous footballer back up to their old tricks. The noise level is ridiculous.'
Greg Milam added: 'I'm surprised all of Cheshire can't hear it. It is unacceptable' while Oaul Eddie quipped: 'Hopefully his mum is there to keep the peace.'
Some residents complained that they had not been invited, while John Swindley said: 'Made walking the dog much more fun tonight.'
Both Foden and his parents Claire and Phil Snr have previously been the subject of noise complaints stemming from loud parties at the former homes in Prestbury, Cheshire.

In July last year residents in his road penned an open letter branding him 'selfish' and called for City to get involved.
Foden, who turns 25 on Wednesday, has been left out of Thomas Tuchel's latest England squad so he can recover from an ankle injury.
He has admitted his loss of form this season is due to struggling 'off the pitch mentally', saying: 'some things are bigger than football'.
City play their final Premier League game against Fulham today before taking part in the FIFA Club World Cup in June.
In his spare time, Foden is a big fan of fishing, and last month was pictured holding up a catch alongside the team from Manchester-based Carp Fever.
While last summer, he went on a £14-a-day angling holiday in the Cotswolds.
He snubbed exotic destinations popular with other Premier League stars to spend five days with his dad fishing for carp, catfish, tench, pike and perch.
An onlooker at Linear Fisheries in Witney, Oxfordshire, said: 'Phil was happy as Larry camping out in a cheap tent,
'He was so down to earth and was just hell-bent on trying to land himself a carp as the lake has some absolutely enormous ones in it.
'While his England pals were living it up in posh hotels next to beaches, the most luxurious thing Phil had on his holiday was a Portaloo.'
Foden's agent was contacted for comment.

'God Save the King!': Victoria Starmer looks effortlessly chic in white summer dress as she joins PM Keir Starmer for Trooping the Colour
Victoria Starmer looked elegant in an all-white ensemble as she joined her husband Sir Keir at Trooping the Colour today. The prime minister's wife, 52, wore a midi length frock with a v-neck, short sleeves, and small buttons down the front. Lady Starmer paired her dress with a large fascinator, also in white, and coordinating heeled pumps. Her chestnut locks were worn loose, and she opted for a chic make-up look, with a fresh base, pink blush, and natural lip. She was photographed sitting next to her husband, 63, as they enjoyed the annual parade. And they were not the only attendees representing politics at the event: such is the importance of the parade that senior representatives from allied nations also attend. The PM posted today on X: 'Sending my best wishes to His Majesty The King today at Trooping the Colour. God Save The King.' Trooping the Colour is a centuries-old tradition that marks the Sovereign's official birthday. It dates back to the 17th century and is rooted in battlefield custom, when regimental flags, or 'colours,' were trooped in front of soldiers to ensure they could be recognised amid the smoke of combat. Last week a full-dress rehearsal, known as The Colonel's Review, took place serving as the final run-through before the King's official celebration. This year, the honour of trooping the Colour falls to the Coldstream Guards, who will officially present their regimental flag, known as the Colour, to King Charles. Following the Trooping ceremony, all eyes will be on the royal balcony to see who King Charles invites to wave to the crowds. King Charles and Queen Camilla will be front and centre on the balcony to watch the Red Arrows flypast, but it expected a host of senior royals will be alongside them. Prince William, 42, is expected to be joined by the Princess of Wales, 43 and their children, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven. Princess Anne will feature with her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, 70. Prince Edward, 61, - who like Anne will be fresh from his part in the procession - is expected on the balcony with his wife Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, 60 They are likely to be joined by their daughter Lady Louise, 21. Their son James, the Earl of Wessex, 17, did not make an appearance last year and may not attend the ceremony this time around either. The Duke of Kent, 89, will likely also be among the royals on the balcony, with the Duke of Gloucester, 80, and his 78-year-old wife Birgitte, the Duchess. As expected, Prince Harry, 40, and his wife Meghan Markle, 43, are not attending this year's celebrations. Having chosen to walk away from being working royals, they have not been present at Trooping the Colour since 2019. The other notable absentee will be Prince Andrew, 65, who remains exiled from public royal events amid the fallout from his relationship with paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and the claims made by late accuser Virginia Giuffre. Andrew's daughters Princess Beatrice, 36, and Princess Eugenie, 35, are not expected to be there either amid Charles' desire for a slimmed-down monarchy and to keep the focus on working royals. Members of the royal family are expected to watch the flypast - including the RAF Red Arrows and a range of planes and helicopters - from the balcony. In previous years it has been a moment where the royal children shine - with little Prince Louis delighting fans last year as pretended to fly one of the planes, appearing to screw up his face as he mimicked the engine's deafening noise. The route for the flypast has not been officially confirmed, but the Military Air Shows has revealed an air restrictions map which shows the expected official route. Proposed restrictions are in the vicinity of the North Sea, East Anglia, Essex and London. Its expected the flypast will go over Buckingham Palace at 1pm. Held traditionally on the second Saturday in June, regardless of the Sovereign's actual date of birth, the celebrations have marked the monarch's official birthday since the mid-1700s. Queen Elizabeth attended all but two of her Trooping the Colours, missing it in 1955 when a national rail strike resulted in the event being cancelled and in 2020 due to lockdown restrictions. The parade is open to members of the public through an online ballot with ticketing ranging from £10 to £30 and is broadcast live on the BBC. What is Trooping the Colour? The Trooping of the Colour has marked the official birthday of the British Sovereign for more than 260 years. Over 1400 parading soldiers, 200 horses and 400 musicians come together each June in a great display of military precision, horsemanship and fanfare to mark the Sovereign's official birthday. The streets are lined with crowds waving flags as the parade moves from Buckingham Palace and down The Mall to Horse Guard's Parade, alongside Members of the Royal Family on horseback and in carriages. The display closes with an RAF fly-past, watched by Members of the Royal Family from Buckingham Palace balcony. Once the Sovereign has arrived at Horse Guard's Parade in Whitehall, they are greeted by a Royal salute and carry out an inspection of the troops, who are fully trained and operational soldiers wearing the ceremonial uniform of red tunics and bearskin hats. After the military bands have performed, the escorted Regimental Colour, or flag, is processed down the ranks of soldiers. Over one hundred words of command are used by the Officer in Command of the Parade to direct the several hundred soldiers. Once the Foot Guards have marched past the Sovereign, they ride back to Buckingham Palace at the head of the soldiers, before taking the salute again at the Palace from a dais. The Sovereign is then joined by other Members of the Royal Family on the balcony at Buckingham Palace to watch a fly-past by the Royal Air Force. A 41-gun salute is also fired in Green Park to mark the occasion.
