Unconfirmed as of now, however they're not part of the V line up so I'd be amazed if they weren't announced for this. Any other thoughts?
Edit: CONFIRMED

I'll stick my neck on the line here and say i don't think they will be.
Whereas i feel they could fit in most places, and easily the Kasabian day of R+L, i was surprised on other forums on how poorly thought of they are by Southerners really, so wereas i feel they could fit in nicely on Kasabian's day 4th-5th Down, i don't think they'll appear.

Third down on the B stage, behind Foster The People and Maccabees. I personally think they deserve to be headlining that stage, as a live band they're a lot bigger than the Maccabees and I've not a clue why they're below Foster The People.

To me being 3rd on the second stage is equal to the 5th position they occupied on the main stage in 2009.
They should either headline that tent or be 3rd on the main stage. Surely they are as big and if not bigger than The Vaccines, The Maccabees or Bombay Bicycle Club.
I'm confused in general that they are only playing 2 festivals, and quite lowly ranked for both festivals. They just seem to be treading water.
Granted I think they've fucked around and should have tried to have a

Only reason I can think of is that because they've been quiet for so long, at this moment in time, them 3 bands are more well known. All three have had albums out in the past year and have been touring a lot. The Vaccines managed to sell 200,000 albums in the past year. But still, I think they should be and deserve to be a lot higher.

Ticket booked for this. Line up is poor IMO but the band are there and so are The Gaslight Anthem, that's enough for me. Should be a top weekend.

Looking like a bit of a loner and all but just got back, the band were top as per. Great set list and top crowd. How on earth they didn't headline that tent I'll never know. Infact, how Bombay Bicycle Club and The Vaccines were 3rd on the main stage is unbelievable. No atmosphere or crowd reaction from them bands at all, where's when Courteeners are on you feel like you're at their own gig.

They were insane at Leeds, should have been headlineing that stage without a doubt, the atmosphere in that tent challenged even Foo Fighters in my opinion - incredible
