Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has called his brother, Noel, and comedian Russell Brand a “pair of old housewives”.

It is thought Liam was referring to Brand and Noel’s recent radio show for Talk Sport.

The pre-recorded football show, which aired over the weekend, featured a guest appearance from Jonathan Ross.

Liam wrote on his Twitter account: “Noel Gallagher, Russell Brand, fucking hell...what a pair of old housewife's (sic),”

As previously reported on Gigwise, the show marked Brand's first return to radio since he quit BBC Radio 2 last year over a prank calls row involving Ross.

The broadcaster, who was himself suspended over the incident, said on the football special: "You're not back on the radio, are you?"

The programme also saw Brand leave an message on Barack Obama's answer phone enquiring as to whether the President was a West Ham fan.

Talk Sport are said to be considering making the show a more regular feature.
