Despite Oasis leaving the capital last week, it seems we are still on the Gallagher’s minds, well more specifically, Edinburgh Council officials are.
Liam let loose on officials after they had singled out the band’s fans as “drunk”, “fat” and “old” in secret safety briefings and he has continued on his tirade in Dublin.
Bosses claimed that most of the 200,000 music-lovers attending the reunion shows across the three days were “rowdy” “middle-aged men” who “take up more room” and will drink to “medium to high intoxication,” the Record reports.
During each night of Oasis’ epic three-day spectacular at Murrayfield in the capital, Liam slammed council chiefs over the remarks.
Now, the Oasis frontman has bashed the council once again but this time during their shows at Croke Park in Dublin over the weekend.

Liam called out the council by shouting, “Edinburgh City Council”, before cutting himself off and pointing to the his head and then the crowd.
His brother, Noel Gallagher, chimed in, however, adding: “Four billion f***ing pound they’ve had.”
The comments were in relation to Liam’s comments on Tuesday August 12, Oasis final performance at Murrayfield, where he said: “£3billion we’ve brought into this city over the past five days. And that’s between you and us. Three billion f****** quid.
“You won’t see f*** all, because they’ll rob it and spread it among their posh ugly mates.
“Still waiting for our apology, bring it on down, you c****”.
This comes after his remarks on Friday August 8 where the singer demanded an apology in a sweary rant at Murrayfield – calling council officials “f****** s****”. Then, during the following day’s show, he said that Edinburgh Council had “the cheek” to make comments about his fans.
Last week, Council Leader Jane Meagher responded to the Gallagher brother’s put-downs.
She said: “I think Liam Gallagher had every right to be annoyed by what he read – I would be too.

“It’s clear that the many thousands of people who flocked to Murrayfield to catch Oasis’s spectacular and highly anticipated reunion shows had a great time – and I want to congratulate the band on their triumphant return to the city.”
Fans who successfully snapped up tickets for the Oasis 25 dates back in September 2024 had waited 332 days to see the band’s first Scottish dates in 16 years since the Gallagher brothers began a well-publicised and long running feud that split the band.
