Fans excited for Oasis Dublin concert as band returns to Ireland after 16 years
Ahead of the start of the first of two gigs at Croke Park yesterday (16 Aug), fans described their excitement at seeing the newly-reunited Gallagher brothers perform.
Sarah and Neil Charlton travelled from Southampton to see the band. 'It's just so nostalgic,' Neil told the Press Association. 'All the songs and all the music from when we were growing up'.
Oasis announced their reunion tour in August last year, 16 years after their dramatic split in 2009, when Noel quit after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.

Fans are all saying the same thing after Sky Sports' US-style half-time interview with Martin Odegaard during Arsenal's showdown with Man United
Sky Sports viewers have had their say on Martin Odegaard 's half-time interview during Arsenal 's showdown at Manchester United - but not many were impressed. Odegaard was put on the spot during the interval at Old Trafford after the Premier League were granted greater behind-the-scenes access, including player interviews during live coverage and cameras filming inside dressing rooms, this season. A new four-deal domestic TV deal worth £6.7billion came into effect this month and both Sky Sports and TNT Sports are believed to have wanted more for their money. Despite the traditional 'Big Six' reportedly pushing back against the sweeping US-style changes, Odegaard found himself in front of the microphone with his side leading 1-0 after Riccardo Calafiori capitalised on Altay Bayindir's gaffe. Arsenal's captain shared his thoughts on the first 45 minutes of the game, but viewers were almost unanimous in their belief that the segment was a step too far. Posting on X, one user said: 'Don't like this American-style half-time interview thing at all. Just let the players be @premierleague.' "It's been a bit too hectic... we need more control!" Martin Odegaard shares his thoughts at half-time at Old Trafford with Arsenal leading... 🗣️ — Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) August 17, 2025 Another wrote: 'Ridiculous. Players shouldn't have to do an interview at half-time when they need full focus on the game.' A third added: 'Interview at half-time? We never asked for this.' A fourth posted: 'This rubbish half-time interview is just codswallop. Shouldn't they be recuperating and taking instructions? 'They are trying hard to ruin football by introducing all this nonsense.' A fifth said: 'Odegaard giving a half-time interview ffs. Nobody needs this. 'The team however do need their captain in the changing room as we need to figure out how to improve 2nd half.' During the interview, which lasted around a minute, Odegaard had told Sky Sports: 'They have quality and really good players up front. I think we let them play through us too easily at times, but also we had a lot of space up front. 'When we regained the ball and we got to run and counter. We just need to be a bit more clinical in those moments and we will have chance to score more. 'It has been a bit too hectic at times. So much space. It's too open. 'We need to control it a bit better and be more compact without the ball. When we get the ball we need to pick the right moments and be more accurate when we counter.' As part of the enhanced broadcasting package, touchline interviews with substituted players are also set to be introduced during coverage this season. Furthermore, camera operators will be allowed to briefly enter the field of play to film close-up celebrations after goals during live matches. Similar elements are a regular feature of sport in the United States, but they have rarely been seen during events in the UK.

Perrie Edwards' secret anxiety disorder that stopped the Little Mix star leaving the house
PERRIE Edwards has shared the secret anxiety disorder that stopped her from leaving the house. The singer, 32, rose to fame in girl band Little Mix from 2011 until 2022. 4 4 They initially formed on The X Factor before achieving worldwide success. Perrie discussed her experience with agoraphobia in a recent interview. The star, who also shares a three-year-old son with ex-England footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, said she feels "fully in her element" while performing on stage. She added to The Telegraph: "But as soon as I'm back home behind closed doors, that's when the anxiety kicks in and I'm just me again." Perrie clarified she has "quite a thick skin" with online comments about her appearance or clothes. She continued: "[I can't help] but catastrophise about the everyday things that should be easy, like getting into my car and driving to London. "At the end of last year, my agoraphobia got so bad I could barely leave the house." The star also revealed having been "painfully shy" before her time on The X Factor. It comes as Perrie's bandmate Jade Thirlwall addressed being diagnosed with disordered eating at the height of Little Mix's fame. Since leaving Little Mix, Jade has admitted to putting on weight after the pressures put on her to be "stick-thin" while in the pop group. Perrie Edwards says she still cries over Jesy Nelson leaving Little Mix five years on - but insists 'we did everything we could' But the scrutiny on her changing body has not eased and Jade admitted feeling the temptation to go on weight-loss injections such as Mounjaro, or Ozempic as is the brand name in the US. "Little Mix fans were all about empowerment and celebrating your body however you look," Jade said in an interview with The Guardian. "Now I'm in my 30s and the healthiest I've ever been, but every time I post a picture, there are comments saying, 'She must be pregnant'... people are used to seeing me in a group environment five or 10 years ago when I was stick-thin because I was in my early 20s with an eating disorder.' Jade added that she did not realise in the moment that she had a disordered eating issue. "But when I look back at photos of periods when I was quite unhappy, I think, 'wow, girlie, you were very, very thin'," she explained.

Historically, if I've ever felt that something is out of my control, then restricting food has been a means of controlling my life in a very toxic way.' The Angel Of My Dreams singer got so bad around 2017 that her mum and a friends of hers drove down from her hometown of South Shields, near Newcastle. They made sure Jade was eating and getting her to gigs, but taking a break from Little Mix never crossed her mind. 'If you stop working in this business, then everybody wants to know why, and I couldn't be arsed for everything that came with that. So I kept it moving,' Jade said. 4

Heartbreaking moment Adam Collard breaks down over fiancee Laura Woods miscarriage on Celebrity SAS
ADAM Collard breaks down in tears over fiancee Laura Woods' miscarriage in heartbreaking Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins scenes tonight. The former Love Islander signed up for the Channel 4 series alongside 13 other famous faces. 5 5 But in tonight's episode, Adam reveals how he almost backed out of participating, after a difficult few months in his personal life. Speaking to the Special Forces staff on the show, an emotional Adam explains how he was diagnosed with depression. He struggles to get his words out before saying: "One of them was with my erm lost it was really close to getting there a second time and telling everyone." As the tears fall, the staff clarify that he's talking about a miscarriage and Adam nods. He adds: "I think I was proud of the fact that I was excited for it, which I didn't think I ever would be. "And when it got taken away, and it was 10 times worse for her, I think it hit us like a tonne of bricks. "We just really, really went to a bit of a bad place. And to be honest, in front of her I pretended I was cool, and pretended I was absolutely fine." Later in the episode, the tears flow again as the celebrities are tasked with reading out their 'death letters', which they were asked to write to their loved ones. As Adam stands up to read his out, he pays tribute to Laura and how much he is thinking of her, before saying: "The last few months have been really tough, but nowhere near as tough as you. Adam continues to read: "We lost a baby recently" but then starts to sob, as his co-stars look just as emotional, not knowing what he had been through until that moment. Laura Woods gives birth to first child with Adam Collard as couple reveal sweet name in adorable post He says: "I wish I had one more night to give you the world's biggest cuddle. Love you always, Adam." Conor Benn then goes over to give Adam a cuddle, who sheds more tears as he is consoled over his loss. In a piece to camera, Adam praised Laura, saying: "I'd say I'm pretty closed off as a person and she definitely helped me to open up." Despite their baby heartbreak, the couple - who got together in 2023 and became engaged in September last year - welcomed son Leo in January this year. What is miscarriage and why do pregnancies fail? MISCARRIAGE is generally the death of an unborn baby in the first 24 weeks – approximately six months – of pregnancy. Miscarriages may not be spoken about a lot but they are very common. Baby loss charity Tommy's estimates there are at least 250,000 per year in the UK and that one in every five pregnancies ends in miscarriage. It may not be clear why a miscarriage happens but they are rarely caused by anything done by the mother or father. Usually the embryo has a random genetic defect that means it cannot develop properly. Most women can go on to successfully have healthy babies in the future. The NHS says most miscarriages cannot be prevented but avoiding smoking, alcohol and drugs while pregnant can reduce the risk. Some of the other most common reasons for a pregnancy to fail in the first 24 weeks are ectopic pregnancy and molar pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is where a fertilised egg implants somewhere outside of the womb, usually in a fallopian tube. It cannot survive and grow there so either dies naturally or must be terminated. Molar pregnancy is rarer but happens when a fertilised egg and/or placenta does not develop properly at the start of a pregnancy. There is no single reason why it happens and cannot be prevented, though it may be more common in very young or old mothers. A baby who dies after 24 weeks is considered a stillbirth.
