Noel Gallagher labels Matty Healy a 'slack-jawed f***wit' over Oasis reunion plea

Noel Gallagher has labelled Matty Healy a 'slack-jawed f***wit' after The 1975 frontman urged Oasis to 'stop messing around' and reform. It's almost 14 years since the band dramatically split with Noel and brother Liam going their separate ways.

Rumours of reunions have followed ever since, despite the Burnage pair both enjoying success with their own projects. Yet in an interview with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in February, Healy urged the Gallaghers to reconcile at last, claiming they were 'acting like they’re in their 20s' and 'need to grow up'.

He said: "Can you imagine being in potentially - right now, still - the coolest band in the world, and not doing it because you’re in a mard with your brother?" Speaking on CBC's Q with Tom Power radio show, Healy also insisted that 'not one person' would rather see Liam or Noel's High Flying Birds than Oasis.
