Liam Gallagher, Manchester City
The Guardian
Singer and former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher is a huge Manchester City fan. In fact, his Twitter feed proves how big of a Cityzens fan he is.
"Man United were in the Second Division then and we were the top team in Manchester for about 10 years," his brother Noel explained the Guardian in 2000.
"But over the years, when City have been struggling and United have become the best team in Europe, I've sometimes wondered why my dad brought me to Maine Road rather than Old Trafford.
“The reason is basically a family one - my dad hated his brothers. They were all Irish people who came over here and decided to support United. My dad chose City instead, just to piss them off. No other reason than that. Liam and I should by rights have been United fans."
