Noel Gallagher says the Oasis fans asking for their money back after the opening Manchester Heaton Park show are “cheeky cunts”.

The June 4 gig, of course, was blighted with technical problems when a generator failed, resulting in the band temporarily leaving the stage after only three songs.

Upon returning after the forced 45 minute break, Noel told the crowd it was now a “free” gig and “Anybody who has kept their ticket will get a full refund.”

Over the past two weeks 20,000 people have asked for their £45 back - more than a quarter of the crowd - hitting Oasis with a  £900,000 bill.

Writing on the official Oasis site, Noel seemed bemused with the fans requesting a refund, writing: “It seems that around 20,000 of you have asked for a refund from that night at Heaton Park!! 20,000!! So you were genuinely disappointed? I don't recall seeing a 20,000 gap in the crowd. Cheeky cunts! Tsk ..some people.”

  • I'm so sick of Oasis! Noel Gallagher is the meanest, rudest musician. Why do people still even like Oasis?

  • If he were to weigh his miniscule amount of talent against his undeservedly large bank account, Noel would see, just like the rest of us can, that it is indeed himself who is the only real cheeky c*nt in all of this!!

  • So it begs the question – why publicly offer said fans a refund, Noel? Answer: because your mouth writes cheques your manager won't cash.
