The Oasis frontman has spoken out during the latest ticket sale for the band’s epic 42-date tour next year
Liam Gallagher has issued a warning to those trying to “destroy” Manchester City after the football club was found guilty of 114 breaches of Premier League financial rules. As reported on Friday, they now wait potential punishment, which could be significant and far-reaching.
On Friday, the Oasis frontman took to X to voice his feelings after news began to break that the club had been found guilty of 114 of the 115 charges they faced. City were charged back in February 2023 for allegations of breaching the league’s financial rules.
Liam initially responded to a post from journalist Ben Jacobs, Liam said on X: “Get your OASIS tickets bought and stop talking out your f****** ar** you S****BUBBLE.”

In another post on X replying to Jacobs, he added: “CTID.”
The comments came during the first day of on-sales for Oasis Live ’27. Since Friday, fans have been attempting to get tickets for the band’s tour next year, which will span 42 dates, including 11 nights at The Etihad, home of Liam and Noel’s beloved Manchester City.
This morning, during the first of three ticket windows today, Liam commented further on the Manchester City guilty verdicts. Liam was responding to a fan who asked what he thought of suggestions that Manchester City fans will “give up” on their club.
He wrote: “Don’t be RIDICULOUS we’re gonna win this appeal clear our good name and then sue all those little SPUNKBUBBLES who have tried to destroy us.”
Liam’s defiant response was echoed yesterday by his brother Noel, who said he is ‘shocked and saddened’ by the news that the club has been found guilty on almost all charges of breaching Premier League financial rules.
Appearing on the City podcast Let Me Talk, Gallagher said he felt “quite sad” for the fans and the players.
“[I’m] surprised, because … the club have assured us all along that they vehemently denied any of these charges,” he said. “So it was a bit of a shock to find out that we’ve been found guilty of all but one. But really overall, just quite sad really. Sad for the fans and for the players.”
Asked if it changes moments like Sergio Aguero’s title-winning goal in 2012, Gallagher said: “Our focus as fans is always on the pitch and we know what we saw – they won it on the pitch.
“Whatever goes on in the boardroom, it’s nothing to do with the supporters or the players. The players won that game and won that title on the pitch.
“Whether some of those players should have been there or not, that’s nothing to do with the fans. We were there, we know what we saw.”
In a statement released to the Manchester Evening News, a City spokesperson said: “The Premier League process remains ongoing, with significant elements to be completed, and subject to strict confidentiality.
“As such Manchester City FC’s position remains consistent with the Club’s statement of February 2023.
“The Club has diligently respected due process for eight years on the basis that the Premier League Board and Executive would behave as an independent, impartial and fair-minded regulator, free from partisan influence.”
