Despite the fact that his relationship with Noel continues to be strained, Liam Gallagher has spoken out in favour of an Oasis reunion, “for the fans.”
The iconic Britpop band split acrimoniously back in 2009 after the already fragile relationship between brothers Noel and Liam broke down completely. “I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer,” said Noel at the time. Their final performance was at V Festival in Staffordshire - they cancelled an appearance at the festival’s Chelmsford edition the following day.
Seven years on, and their relationship is tentatively on the mend. That doesn’t mean a reunion is on the cards though - a few months back Noel said he would only do so for £20 million.
Now, Liam Gallagher has thrown his support behind a reunion. Speaking to Q Magazine, Liam said, "I believe Oasis will sail again and it'll be glorious. If it's really about the fans, Noel, let's do it - because they want it. One year. Tour for a year. We'd smash it. My bags are still packed from my last tour, so I'm ready.”
This isn’t the first time the musician has suggested he’d be willing to bury the hatched with his brother. He sent these tweets last month.

Back in May though, Liam was less keen to return to his former band, tweeting simply, “FUCK OASIS.”
