Ex-Celtic star shares 'hack' to free Oasis ticket after chance Liam Gallagher meeting
Ex-Celtic player Cillian Sheridan has shared his very own Oasis ticket hack after he claimed he managed to blag tickets for one of the bands shows at Murrayfield.
The former Hoops striker who now plies his trade at Highland League club Brechin City has revealed how he chanced his arm when he randomly met Liam Gallagher after a round of golf.
The Irishman came face-to-face with the iconic Oasis frontman in the car park of Gleneagles Hotel where the Rock 'n' Roll star was staying throughout his time in Scotland.
Rather than asking for a photo with the rock legend, Sheridan had other ideas and there was only thing on his mind.
Sharing his Masterplan on X, he said: "Here's my hack to Oasis tickets. Go for a round of golf in the morning, on your way back to your car bump into Liam Gallagher at his hotel. Here's the important bit. DON'T ask for a photo, instead chance your arm & ask for a ticket! Not how I thought my day would pan out! Legend!"
Sheridan was able to squeeze in at the last minute and claims he was able to catch one of the Edinburgh shows of the Oasis Live 25 tour.
Around 200,000 fans packed into Murrayfield over three Supersonic nights in the capital. Huge hits including Don't Look Back in Anger, Roll With It and Champagne Supernova had their first outing since 2009, as fans of all ages partied in the capital.
And Sheridan can count himself as one the lucky ones who managed to get their hands on goldust tickets.
He shared a picture from inside the home of Scottish rugby which showed his incredible view of the stage as Noel Gallagher belted out a song.

Earlier this week we told how one fan took a punt on a ticket seller who claimed they were flying all the way from Malaysia with a spare.
Dave Glynn feared that his golden ticket to see the iconic Manchester rockers was 'too good to be true', after he was promised tickets online by a complete stranger 'Half the World Away.'
But the 33-year-old was given a huge welcome surprise when he met Ifran Sidek outside Murrayfield who kept true to his word and provided him with a ticket for Saturday's sold out show.
Last night we told how more fans from All Around the World travelled to Edinburgh to see Oasis return to the stage.
Civil servant Meeho Lee, 33, and data analyst Ra Young, 31, came from Seoul to witness their favourite band play in Edinburgh.
Meeho said: 'I was a huge fan of Oasis since I was a high school student. After I heard they were reuniting, my friend and I got tickets to come here.
'It was a lot of preparation with plane tickets and hotels. It was expensive but it's been worth it. Edinburgh is a very attractive city and the beer is delicious.'
Closer to home, Pharmaceuticals worker Grant Taylor, 43, from Irvine, arrived with his son Evan, 10.
Evan said: 'I'm buzzing. I started listening to Oasis when I was seven and we got tickets last year. It will be mental. I am looking forward to Cigarettes & Alcohol and Live Forever.'
The gigs saw several iconic moments, including the pair blasting Edinburgh council for generalising about their fans, and Noel's influencer daughter sporting a Celtic FC tracksuit in the crowd.

Oasis fan dies in hotel room hours before show in Edinburgh
An Italian fan of Oasis died in his hotel room just hours before he was due to see the band in Edinburgh last week. Alessandro Croce, 30, from Teramo in central Italy, died after collapsing at his hotel on 9 August. He was reportedly getting ready to attend the event at Murrayfield Stadium when he suddenly took ill. His friends tried to resuscitate him as they waited for the emergency services to arrive. Paramedics also tried to save him, but all efforts were unsuccessful. Initial reports indicated Mr Croce suffered a cardiac arrest, Sky News Italia said. Tributes poured in for the dentist and amateur basketball player. Mayor of Teramo Gianguido D'Alberto said in a statement on social media that "our city is profoundly shaken by the passing of Alessandro Croce". He sent his condolences to the 30-year-old's family, including his parents and his sister, Giulia. Basketball Teramo said they were "literally devastated" and their community felt "deep pain" at the "sudden and premature" passing of their player. "Alessandro was not only a pillar of our team, but an integral part of our history and of the heart of our association," a statement on social media reads.

‘Rangers fans will hate me' – David Martindale reveals how he once helped European opponents ahead of clash with Gers
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DAVIE MARTINDALE helped Ruben Amorim prepare for big European clashes with Rangers and Aberdeen. But he joked the Portuguese boss has forgotten who he is now he's in the big time with Man Utd. Sign up for the Rangers newsletter Sign up 3 David Martindale gave Ruben Amorim a helping hand Credit: Kenny Ramsay 3 The gaffer faced two Scottish oppositions previously Credit: Getty The Livi gaffer did his coaching badges in Northern Ireland with Amorim and West Ham number two Bruno Saltor. Martindale helped the Old Trafford boss get ready for facing the Gers while standing in at Braga and then sent him Livi's prep notes when Sporting Lisbon faced Aberdeen six months later. He revealed: 'I did my coaching badges with Ruben Amorim and Bruno Saltor, who is at West Ham now, so I know them both fairly well. 'We did it with the IFA and it just so happened that when I was getting up they were kicking about for breakfast too, so we used to sit together. 'It was a two-week intensive course doing the B and A licences, the year before Covid. 'Ruben was the manager of the Braga B team then the manager of the first-team got sacked, so he stepped in. 'He phoned me right after it because they got Rangers in Europe and asked what I could tell him about them. 'He wasn't able to sit in the dugout because we hadn't finished the whole course by then so they had to put an old guy who had his pro-licence there instead. 'Ruben wasn't allowed to take the team so he stayed away from it, I think he sat in the stand or stood behind the dugouts. 'Rangers fans will hate me, but I sent him our stuff because we'd just played Rangers. That's what happens in football, everyone helps each other out. I'm not going into my work relegated, says defiant Livingston boss David Martindale as they're left TEN points adrift 'Rangers beat them anyway - I think those were the only defeats he had as Braga manager in 12 or 14 games. 'On the back of that he got the Sporting Lisbon job - and in his first season he drew Aberdeen! 'I had him on the phone again asking me for my stuff on Aberdeen because we'd just played them before as well. 'I got my 'fit and proper' stuff through and Ruben messaged me 'great Davie, I'm delighted for you'. 'Fast forward to last season and he gets the Man United job so I messaged him to say well done, congratulations. 'I'm still waiting for him to text me back!! 'I keep checking my phone but it's never come through! 'It's brilliant he's got that job and I think with Ineos getting the structures there sorted, it'll be a great fit long-term.' Martindale keeps in touch with Saltor and revealed he even tried to get the ex-Brighton star to come out of retirement and sign for Livi. Celtic fans utterly baffled as David Martindale gets Hoops star confused with Man City hero in TV interview He said: 'Bruno was a great guy as well, he had just retired at Brighton when Graham Potter and Billy Reid went in there. 'So, me being Scottish, he reckoned I must have known Billy, which I didn't! 'I actually wanted to sign Bruno for Livingston. We did a few wee drills when we were on the courses and you're in them. 'I remember looking at him thinking he'd stroll it playing for us. He was 36 or something at that time. 'I asked him if he wanted to come here but he just laughed at me! 'I'm pretty sure I offered him a coaching job here as well, but he was in at Brighton and since then he's worked at Chelsea and now West Ham. 'We had a good group, we had Luis Garcia, Chris Samba, Gabby Agbonlahor, Craig Gardner and a few others. 'Covid happened during it so it ended up taking us longer to do it than it usually would have. 3 Amorim in the dugout when facing Rangers in 2020 Credit: Reuters 'On the Pro-Licence I had Antoine Sibierski and I got him up here to work with the lads but it makes you remember your age. 'I was telling the boys 'it's Sibierski, he played for Man City and Newcastle' but they had no idea. 'So I had to tell them he'd have had loads of French caps if it wasn't for Zidane! 'Meeting these people is what it's all about. He's at Troyes now, director of football there and we keep in touch. 'I really enjoyed doing them, it was difficult when you're in a job because of the time involved, but it's a great way to meet people and network. 'You keep in touch with the people in your group, everyone who does it is the same. 'This year is the first year I've not had the distraction of not having one to do because I've got all the badges now and I have to admit, I'm missing it. 'I hope they bring out another one, maybe an Advanced Pro-Licence or something. If they do, I'll sign up for it.'

Isak is desperate to join Liverpool, who had a £110m bid rejected by Toon, and has told Newcastle chiefs he will not play for them again, even if they refuse to sell him. The £150m-rated ace does not want to train with the rest of the squad either - effectively making him unavailable for match action. The Magpies have continued to pay the £130,000-a-week forward throughout his stand-off and have yet taken any disciplinary action. However, SunSport has learned that a fine is set to be issued if his actions lead to him missing a competitive game - which he will do against Aston Villa on Saturday.

But he admits the future of the hotshot, who has been handed the No14 shirt for season, is out of his hands. Howe, who is expected to provide an update on the situation on Friday at his pre-match press conference ahead of the Villa clash, said this week: 'I think everything is in play. I've said many times he is contracted to us. He is our player. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK 'The club make the decision on his future. I don't know what that will be.
