Noel Gallagher has suggested that he could be up for a potential Oasis reunion after brother Liam Gallagher made claims that the band could be getting back together.
The brothers, who hail from Burnage, famously fell out in 2009 after Noel quit the band following a backstage argument. At the time, Noel said he ‘could not go on working with Liam a day longer’, later claiming he had been subjected to ‘verbal and violent intimidation’.
Over the weekend, Liam, 50 was asked by a fan on social media if there was a ‘small percentage that Oasis get back together’ to which he responded: ‘It’s happening’.

His comments led to media speculation that the brothers had made up with one another and could be lining up Oasis shows for the near future. Earlier this week, Noel, 55, implied that the ball was in Liam's court in terms of getting the band back together and that he was waiting for his brother to reach out to him about a potential reunion.
“There’s something in the papers back in England today,” he told France Inter. “He should get his people to call my people; they know who they are, they know where we are. Stop talking on the f*****g internet, and let’s see what you’ve got to say.”
Noel added that he felt it was up to his brother to make the first move. He told the French radio station: “He’s got my number, he’s got my manager’s number, call us. But you know what? He won’t call.”
His comments have led fans to message Liam on social media to encourage him to reach out to his brother. One fan tweeted the frontman: “C’mon then LG, Noel has challenged “your people” to pick up the phone… is your bag still packed?”.
In response, Liam said: “All he got is yes men I don’t deal with yes men,” before adding: “He ain’t got no people.”
Another fan asked: “You called “Noel’s people” yet”, to which Liam replied: “Cowboys more like.”
In another tweet on Wednesday (March 22), Liam said the brothers had a lot of making up to do before any reunion could happen - leading fans to believe the reunion could be further away than initially anticipated.
He posted: “Here’s how I see it the little fella aka potato has done a lot of damage to Oasis as a band / brand he’s got a lot of making up to do not just to me but to you the fans the people that put us where we are tday as you were LG x”
One fan replied: "Yeap, but nevertheless, call him and put your conditions on the table."
Another said: "Now or never for oasis, he's never been that open in an interview until now. No need for other people just need to sort it between yourselves and the band. Arrange the meet and call!"
Formed in 1991, Oasis have sold more than 70 million records worldwide, with eight UK number one albums and singles. The band were recognised at the 2007 Brit Awards for their 'Outstanding Contribution to Music'.
