Oasis' Liam Gallagher issues stunning 'attitude stinks' rebuke of Edinburgh council over 'fat' fan comments
Leaked Edinburgh City Council briefing documents have angered Oasis fans - as well as band frontman Liam Gallagher.

Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has issued a withering rebuke of Edinburgh City Council officials, after the band's fans were reportedly described as overweight, 'older' and 'rowdy' in leaked documents from safety briefings. Details from the briefings have emerged as the council prepares for three sold-out Oasis shows at Murrayfield Stadium in August, at the height of Edinburgh's festivals season. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Liam and Noel Gallagher of Oasis | Simon Emmett/Fear PR/PA Wire Leaked papers have shown Edinburgh officials saying those attending the concerts would be mainly 'middle-aged men' who 'take up more room', according to the Scottish Sun. The planning briefings state: 'Concerned about the safety of the Fringe and its performers. Many performers are considering not attending for that weekend. 'There is concern about crowds ... as they are already rowdy ... and the tone of the band.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Another note adds: 'Middle-aged men take up more room. Consider this when working out occupancy.' 'Medium to high intoxication' and a 'substantial amount of older fans' was anticipated, the documents suggested. Gallagher has responded on social media to the reports on Sunday morning, with two posts taking direct aim at the council.

Gallagher then adds: 'I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real STUNING individuals.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad An estimated 210,000 concert goers in total are expected to descend on Murrayfield Stadium for the highly-anticipated gigs on August 8, 9 and 12. David Walker, 44, from the Oasis Collectors Group, told the Scottish Sun: 'To call fans drunk, middle-aged and fat is a nasty, sneering stereotype — it's a jaundiced view. 'People want to have a great time. If reports of councillors' drunken parties are anything to go by, they'd be better keeping their opinions to themselves. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad "The fanbase has changed a lot - there's a new generation of young fans for a start, and parents are wanting to introduce their kids to Oasis for the first time. "If reports of Edinburgh councillors' drunken parties are anything to go by, then they'd be better keeping their opinions to themselves. The return of Oasis will be hugely exciting for the city - everyone just needs to roll with it." Edinburgh culture convener Margaret Graham said: 'As with any major event which takes place in the city, we prepare extensively alongside our partners to ensure the safety and best possible experience of everyone involved – and Oasis are no different. "No two events are the same in terms of requirements or planning and our multi-agency approach reflects this appropriately.

We're looking forward to seeing Oasis take to the stage.' Pressure on accommodation due to the timing of the Oasis concerts during the Edinburgh festivals has seen the price of a room rocket over the dates.

‘It's more frustration with you guys' – Rory McIlroy explains skipping media in tense interview after US Open nightmare
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) RORY MCILORY insists he's "earned the right to do whatever I want to do" after snubbing the press after his first two US Open Rounds. The Masters champion declined to speak to the world's media after his first two rounds at Oakmont in an apparent response to the coverage of his use of an illegal driver at last month's PGA Championship.

He said of his brief blackout: "It's just frustration with you guys [some sections of the media]. "I have been totally available for the past number of years. "That [driver issue] was a part of it, but at Augusta, I skipped you guys on Thursday. READ MORE ON RORY MCILROY DRIVEN MAD McIlroy launches club and smashes tee box as Sky Sports commentators disgusted It's not out of the ordinary as I've done it before, but I am doing it a little more often. "I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do." McIlroy's form has fallen off a cliff since sealing his career Grand Slam in April. He looked certain to miss the cut — like defending champion Bryson DeChambeau and plenty of other big names — until he conjured two birdies in the last four holes of his second round. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS Inside Rory McIlroy's whirlwind love life RORY MCILROY enjoyed a high-profile romance with former tennis world number one Caroline Wozniacki before their split in 2014. The following year, the golf ace began dating Erica Stoll, who he had first met on the PGA Tour in 2011. Erica often interacted with players through her role as the PGA's manager of championship volunteer operations. She even prevented McIlroy from missing his tee time at the 2012 Ryder Cup after some confusion over the time zone. The incident began a firm friendship between the pair, four years before their relationship turned romantic. McIlroy and Erica were spotted on a string of dates in Rochester, New York, in the early days of their relationship. Just eight months later, the couple got engaged in Paris and walked down the aisle at Ashford Castle in Ireland in 2017. The pair then welcomed daughter Poppy into the world three years later. Throughout their time together, McIlroy and Erica have kept their relationship to themselves, with the golfer keen to protect his family from the cameras during filming of Netflix's Full Swing documentary series. However, after seven years of marriage, McIlroy filed for divorce from Erica. The reasons for the divorce were not disclosed, but the Northern Irishman submitted documents to a court in Florida. However, a few weeks later, performed a U-turn on their decision to divorce. McIlroy told the outlet: "Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.' And McIlory admitted his lack of motivation is so bad that he would not have worried if he had missed the cut. He said: 'I was thinking, 'Do I really want two more days here?'. So it makes it easier to play better in that mindset. Rory McIlroy reacts to PGA Championship delay 'You don't know how you're going to react to something like my Masters win — something I'd dreamt about for a long time. And, yeah, I have felt a little flat on the golf course afterwards. 'I actually feel I've played OK this week. It's a golf course where the tiniest mistakes get penalised.' Given his mindset, it is no surprise McIlroy's faint US Open hopes vanished with a whimper rather than a roar. A four-over-par 74 kept the Northern Irishman among the back markers, and in this mood, he will do well to improve on his 47th-place finish at the USPGA a few weeks ago. At times, it has looked as if McIlroy has been going through the motions since Augusta, especially when he finished 149th out of 153 finishers in the Canadian Open last week. Sadly, Oakmont has proved another example of McIlroy playing without his usual drive and desire. It was hard to avoid the suspicion that he set out yesterday knowing he was unlikely to make significant inroads on the nine-shot gap that separated him from 36-hole leader Sam Burns — especially on a front nine that has proved a minefield for the world No 2. McIlroy played the opening stretch in NINE OVER PAR over the first two days, while shooting three under on the back nine. The front nine is the tougher half — but not that much harder. I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do." Rory McIlory on his brief media blackout Marc Leishman and Corey Conners, in the groups just behind McIlroy, underlined that fact by both playing the first nine holes in three under yesterday, although both found it much tougher after the turn. McIlroy needed a fast start to round three to have any chance of a miracle fightback, but a bogey on the third meant he was quickly heading in the wrong direction. Another shot went at the ninth and even though he finally made his first birdie at the tenth, he gave it straight back by finding a bunker on the 11th. A rueful shrug of the shoulders was the only reaction when he missed a tiddler for par at the 14th. And another shot went with a three-putt on the 16th. The relatively easy 17th, where he demolished the tee marker 24 hours earlier, yielded a second birdie. Almost inevitably, that shot was handed back at the last, dropping the five-time Major winner to ten over. Asked what he was hoping for in his final round, McIlroy added: "Hopefully a round in under four and a half hours and get out of here."

My husband's only 5ft but don't let Tinder's new height filter keep you from great sex- my short king is dynamite in bed
Scroll down to find out which celebrity women are taller than their boyfriends SHORT & SWEET My husband's only 5ft but don't let Tinder's new height filter keep you from great sex- my short king is dynamite in bed Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A woman who is six inches taller than her husband has slammed Tinder's new height filter feature, claiming that his small stature doesn't stop her man from being a freak in the sheets. At 5ft 7in, Jesika Kamp is considerably taller than her partner, Hunter, and she recalls feeling 'shocked' by his stature when they first met, after connecting online. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Jesika is six inches taller than her husband Credit: Jam Press/@jesikaandhunter 5 Jesika slammed Tinder's new height feature Credit: Jam Press/@jesikaandhunter 5 Jesika says she and Hunter have the "best sex ever" Credit: Jam Press/@jesikaandhunter But the two have gone from strength to strength, and 33-year-old Jesika even says they have the 'best sex ever' – aided, in part, by his shorter size. With Tinder recently announcing a new filter in which users can block potential matches if they aren't a favourable height, the couple have spoken out about their own experience. 'It's ingrained in our brains that men need to be taller, but there's no actual reason for that,' Jesika, who works in marketing, said. 'I understand that people have preferences, but it feels odd [to have a height filter]. Read more real life stories TALL TALES Everyone thinks my husband is my child because he's so tiny 'As someone that has dated a few people shorter than me, height never mattered. 'I would have missed out on some pretty great experiences if I prioritised height! 'I know it can feel tough feeling like you have to explain someone to your friends and family – I've been there. 'I felt like I had to warn people so they weren't caught off guard but after a while, I was like 'Why the heck am I doing this when I love this person?' 'Now I openly speak about our height difference with pride.' Hunter, a dog trainer, was particularly unhappy to hear the news of the dating app's new system. Love Knows No Height He said: 'It makes me happy that I'm married and sad for the guys out there, still trying to date. 'Most women will have their height filter set to 6ft+ – leaving the majority of men cast aside, much less someone like myself who's in the lowest percentile for height.' The Arizona, US-based couple met online themselves, connecting on TikTok rather than a dating app, and Jesika didn't know about Hunter's height until a couple of weeks of talking. When they did meet, she was 'a little shocked', but soon found that it didn't matter – though other people were quick to comment. Jesika said: 'I've had friends and other people ask me why I'm with someone so much shorter than me. Celebrity Woman Taller Than Their Partners Zendaya 5'10" - Tom Holland 5'8" Cameron Diaz 5'9" - Benji Madden 5'6" Eniko parrish 5'7" - Kevin Hart 5'4" Gwendoline Christie 6'3" - Giles Deacon 6' Tina Fey 5'5" - Jeff Richmond 5'2" 'We've gotten comments asking if he's my son or 'if I need a real man'.' But when it comes to the bedroom, they say there is never an issue. She added: 'Aren't we all the same lying down? "In fact, some positions are a lot easier with Hunter being short. "Honestly, it's probably the best sex I've ever had.' The couple, who married in 2022, have had to face comments about their visible height difference since they first got together – but say it shouldn't deter anyone from giving taller or shorter people a chance. Jesika said: 'There's nothing wrong with preference, but I do think it [favouring taller men] stems from past generations. 'Like how women are taught that they should get married to a man with a good job, be a stay-at-home mother, cook, clean, and take care of the children. 'Times have changed, but some things seem to be deep rooted. 'I do have plenty of friends that refuse to date a man shorter than them, and that's fine. 'I'd love to see a dating show or something where height is blind. 'Where people build connections and realise that it truly doesn't matter. Honestly, it's probably the best sex I've ever had Jesika Kamp 'If I was on dating apps now, I wouldn't use the height filter. 'It's already hard to find your person these days – and the ones that are perfect for you might surprise you. '[You should] do what makes you happy. 'Don't let society or social media talk you out of being with your potential person because of social standards. 'Nothing someone else said could change how I feel about my relationship and the person I chose.' 5 The couple got married in 2022 Credit: Jam Press/@jesikaandhunter/@zofiasellsphotograpy
