'I saw Oasis at Wembley and three worrying details were accident waiting to happen'
After I heard the tragic news that someone had died after being"found with injuries consistent with a fall" at an Oasis concert at Wembley Stadium, I immediately felt a lump in my throat. I didn't know the circumstances surrounding what happened, but although the gig itself was amazing and I had an incredible time. Although the details of why he fell have yet to be confirmed, I remember how chaotic it felt on the day I was there, earlier in the week, because of the massive crowds and slippery surfaces.
On Saturday, August 2, Oasis fan Lee Claydon, a 45-year-old from Bournemouth, died after falling from a height at the end of the Manchester-band's performance. The dad-of-three reportedly fell from an upper tier of Wembley Stadium, where Liam and Noel Gallagher were playing their fourth gig of their residency.
Although the details surrounding the fall have yet to be confirmed, his devastated dad Clive Claydon, 75, claims his son's fall was an accident and he slipped. Although he wasn't at the event himself, the dad said his son "may have had a couple of beers but had not taken any drugs".
He added: "People have said horrible things but it was just an accident. All I know is there was beer everywhere, it's slippery, he slipped apparently, we do not know the rest of it. There's questions about the barriers."
I attended the Oasis gig on Wednesday, July 30, and had an amazing time. I was sitting in the upper tier, enjoying the music from afar, but three things really concerned me. People throwing beer, the slippery floors and steep staircases all seemed to be an accident waiting to happen.
I arrived at Wembley just after 5pm, with the first support act, Cast, due to arrive on stage at 6pm. The stands were filling up slowly but surely, and people were going back and forth between the bar and the stands to refill their drinks before Oasis were due to take to the stage at 8.15pm. Although I would never expect there not to be alcohol at events like this, the sheer amount of it being spilled did cause some issues.
During the second support act, Richard Ashcroft, I felt the dribble of beer hit my head as an Oasis fan slowly, and accidentally, poured his drink on my head as he was enjoying the gig.
"I'm sorry, although I wouldn't have apologised for that back in the day!" he told me.
As the night continued, many people started knocking over their drinks. My jacket, placed on my chair, was soaked with beer. I saw many people attempt, and fail, to use those cardboard carriers to carry four pints to their seats - and nine times out of 10 would end up spilling them on the floor.
I realised how bad it had become when I went to the toilet just after Richard Ashcroft had left the stage. The chaos of all the people piling onto the stairs to go to the toilet and grab a drink before Oasis took to the stage was very uncomfortable. Because of how high up you are, I think standing in these areas can feel a little daunting.
With Wembley's 90,000 seat capacity, it's the second largest stadium in Europe. While I felt safe, apart from the odd beer shower, in my seat, someone in my row did slip and fall on his way out onto the steps.
The steps, which are very steep, were also covered in beer. The amount of people made it impossible to move at any speed, but I still clung onto the handrail to be safe and not to be knocked over.
However, the worst bit was the steps leading down to the internal concourse, where the bars and toilets are. Throughout the night the area became more and more slippy - at one stage it felt like a sheet of ice.
I saw several people slip, and one person even fell down, although he didn't get hurt. I remember feeling very happy that I wasn't drinking, so I could be extra cautious. Every time I went back down to my seat, I had a tight grip on the handrail.
That being said, at the front of the tier, there were barriers and signs telling people not to stand. But as most people were standing, dancing through the whole concert, I couldn't help but think that if someone slipped and fell, they could still end up being hurt.
At the end of the night, after the epic Champagne Supernova encore and fireworks, we decided to let everyone else leave in front of us. The mass exit was as chaotic as you can imagine, and several people, including me, shouted warnings behind them about how slippy it was.
It seems I wasn't the only person to notice how dangerous the slippery floors could be. One Oasis fan took to Facebook on August 4 to share: "There was a girl at Wembley last night who slipped over and dislocated her knee in the concourse, my wife and I got her some help and she was taken away with her friend. Somehow my wife spotted her afterwards and we found out she was still able to watch the gig after strapping up and use of a wheelchair which was great news, not sure if she'll see this but I hope you're OK and recovery isn't too bad!! Take care on the slippery floors people."
Another replied, saying: "My friend fell as well due to slippery floor. Got straight back up and we sang our hearts out and danced the rest of the night."
A third wrote: "I see a man fall on the steps going down to the floor, he was really injured, blood pouring from elbow and he looked concussed. Can't believe how many people I see slip on those steps."
However, not everyone agreed the stadium is the problem. On an Oasis fan group, one person said: "18 years worth of events, most with 90,000 people attending, and never an incident like it. It's a tragic accident, and blaming it on the venue or security is ridiculous."
On Reddit, another said: "I went Wednesday and literally saw no drunks or trouble anywhere (queuing for the tube for an hour too)." And a third wrote: "I was in the gods-ish. Everybody seemed relatively well behaved tonight to be honest."
Meanwhile, a spokesperson from Wembley Stadium said: "Wembley Stadium operates to a very high health and safety standard, fully meeting legal requirements for the safety of spectators and staff, and is certified to and compliant with the ISO 45001 standard. We are regularly inspected by certifying authorities both on an event day and throughout the year, and we regularly review and test our plans to ensure adherence to the conditions set within the stadium's general safety certificate. We work very closely and collaboratively with all relevant event delivery stakeholders - including event owners, local authorities, the Sports Ground Safety Authority and the police - to deliver events to high standards of safety, security and service for everyone attending or working in the venue."

Oasis weigh up offers for huge gigs in 2026 including four Knebworth anniversary shows after success of reunion tour
A huge festival in the US have made an offer to the Gallagher brothers WONDERHAUL Oasis weigh up offers for huge gigs in 2026 including four Knebworth anniversary shows after success of reunion tour JUST weeks after Oasis' sell-out 41-date reunion tour kicked off, I was inundated with calls about what was being lined up next for Noel and Liam Gallagher. According to two of my contacts, the brothers have been offered four huge shows at Knebworth House next year — to mark the 30th anniversary of their two historic concerts there in 1996. 15 Liam and Noel Gallagher, pictured in Edinburgh, have been inundated with offers following the success of their tour Credit: Big Brother Recording If the rockers take up the offer, the shows would see them beating their former foe Robbie Williams' achievement of playing the iconic Hertfordshire venue three times. Another three of my moles then called up at the start of last month — to tell me they'd heard about a possible residency at the Etihad Stadium, home of their beloved Manchester City. Weeks later, the rumours started to build online, with fake posters circulated and fan forums alight with talk of the potential to keep the reunion alive. A well-placed insider, who works for a major promoter, told me: 'I could see all of this happening. 'There is so much on the table but it's whether Noel and Liam want to do it.' Those close to the band tell me Noel and Liam are not considering anything for 2026, with no solid plans or bookings locked in. 'They'll be having a well-earned holiday as soon as this tour finishes later this year,' a source explained. 'As for 2026, they've seen the speculation, they've heard about the offers and they know what the fans want. 'Keep magic going' 'But it's ultimately up for them to decide. 'The Oasis reunion hasn't just been concerts. You can see that it's been a cultural movement. Nothing comes close in recent history to Oasis's shows. Liam Gallagher in fresh foul-mouthed rant at Edinburgh Council during Oasis night two 'It's a question of whether Noel and Liam want to draw a line in the sand and close the door on this chapter, knowing they captured the zeitgeist. Or do they strike it up again and keep the magic going? It's a difficult decision to make.' Last month I revealed that private bidders and festivals — including Coachella in the US and Benicassim in Spain — have sent in offers for the band to consider. All those, I've been told, have so far been stonewalled. As a fan, I'd love the chance to see them live just one last time.
