Liam lashes out at the Enemy singer over 'slur'

Liam Gallagher attacked The Enemy's Tom Clarke over comments about Oasis, which Clarke says were intended as a compliment and have been misinterpreted.

Liam Gallagher has completely overreacted to something that The Enemy's Tom Clarke has said about Oasis. The Enemy, FYI, are due to support Oasis on their upcoming tour. Here's what Gallagher said via his Twitter page: "Having read an interview with Tom Clarke from The Enemy apparently Oasis are past it? Do you want to go on 1st or what you little fucker?"

Now, this is the comment by Clarke that this angry statement is a response to: "I don't think Noel needs to do it any more . He is doing it for the love of it. That's the dream. That's when you can say you've made it".

I know. Makes you wonder if Gallagher can actually read, doesn't it? Well, poor Tom Clarke has been moved to release a statement refuting Liam's wilful misinterpretation of his words, saying: "That's complete and utter bollocks! Oasis have been and still are one of my favourite bands ever. The comment was intended to be a compliment for Oasis and Noel Gallagher's continuing success, but has instead been misinterpreted as criticism. It's an absolute honour for them to invite us onto their tour, I can't wait! Oasis passed it? Not a fuckin' chance!"

Honestly, what a kerfuffle about nothing.
