Oasis
It's the match that has got everyone in football talking - and Noel Gallagher is no different.
The former Oasis star and life-long Manchester City fan cannot wait for the Champions League clash with Barcelona at the Etihad Stadium.
He joined the Sports Bar to look ahead to Tuesday night's clash and admits that, while he obviously wants City to win, he would be delighted with a 0-0 draw on home soil.
As he says, 'as long as the tie is still alive when I go to Barcelona in three weeks' time, I'll be happy'.
But he does have a secret weapon up his sleeve, admitting he might try to tempt Oasis fan Lionel Messi out after the game... so he can nobble him!

Roberto Mancini
Rock 'n' roll legend Noel Gallagher joined Andy Goldstein and Michael Gray to talk hangovers, Lionel Messi's fashion sense and his beloved Manchester City.
City take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday and a defeat, coupled with a Manchester United win over Liverpool, would see Roberto Mancini's men fall ten points behind in the Premier League title race.
"It's pivotal weekend. If United win and we lose, it's pretty much done and dusted," said Gallagher.

Liam Gallagher
Lionel Messi
Mario Balotelli
Roberto Mancini
On his return home to Manchester, Liam Gallagher tells Peter Fraser about the Premier League title race, Lionel Messi and that 'geezer' Mario Balotelli.
"Hmmm, don't know, man. The usual," said Liam Gallagher as he considered Manchester City's winter transfer options in the glamorous setting of his new Pretty Green fashion boutique on its opening day in his hometown.
Another try for Kaka, he has been injured? "No, not him, man. The usual, little (Lionel) Messi. He's good," added the former Oasis frontman from beneath the rim of his fedora hat before breaking off to compliment a photographer on her scarf clad in his beloved club's colours.
'He's good' was perhaps somewhat of a play-down assessment of Barcelona and Argentina's mercurial No.10. But it epitomises the throwaway, carefree manner that fans who once worshipped the likes of Uwe Rosler and Shaun Goater can now refer to a World Player of the Year, which has of course been the case ever since Sheikh Mansour's billions rolled into town in 2008.
The bar has been raised. And what of expectations this season? Can 'noisy neighbours' City upset the established order of Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, Carlo Ancelotti's defending champions Chelsea or Arsene Wenger's Arsenal in the Premier League this season?
Now Beady Eye star Liam, who releases the group's debut album, 'Different Gear, Still Speeding', at the end of February before going on tour in March, said: "Do I think we can win the title? Yeah, without a doubt. Whether we do or not is another thing. But I think we can, we're getting there."
He added: "I like that Balotelli geezer, that Mario dude. He's top, he's smart."
But there is of course trouble brewing at City. Pictures of 'that Balotelli geezer' involved in a training ground bust-up with Jerome Boateng could be compared to the in-house Britpop clashes of Liam and older brother and former Oasis band-mate, Noel, while only last weekend captain Carlo Tevez was involved in an unwanted touchline row with manager Roberto Mancini.
Curtain-raiser
Did Liam think such seditious events might undermine the greater cause? "Who knows? But Tevez is a star and all. He's doing well," he said.
"Like Mancini says, you don't want people coming off the pitch, they want to stay on."
Skysports.com had been lucky enough to grab a rare, quick football chat with Liam after receiving the honour of an invite to the glittering, Champagne curtain-raiser of his plush Pretty Green pop-up store on Manchester's trendy King Street.
One of the most iconic members of rock 'n' roll's history has founded and designed the clothing label in his own mould of style, swagger and stellar impact, which has already led to the huge success of a flagship branch that took up residence on London's famed Carnaby Street in the summer.
Another pop-up store in Glasgow, the city where Oasis were first spotted by original label, Creation Records, in 1993, has also opened to give further indication that the venture into fashion is proving a shrewd decision.
It is easy to see why. In an understated location among atmospheric buildings that mirror the Pretty Green Mod inspiration of the art and music of the 1960s, the Manchester store is about as slick as it gets.
It is a homecoming for Liam, who was born in the city's Burnage neighbourhood, and he has described the project as an "absolute privilege". He is determined to make it a success and, if looks are anything to go by, it will not be a disappointment.
Unbelievable poise
Stepping through the glass doors of the Kings Street branch of Pretty Green, you are greeted by premises of unbelievable poise. This is the brainchild of a man who is Cool Britannia epitomised, a hero of a generation and beyond, the voice behind the anthemic 'Live Forever', or the iconic 'Columbia' and 'Slide Away'.
The style is sheik minimalist, with high ceilings and retro leather furniture, while giant mirrors and pictures of Liam modelling his designs adorn the walls. As a treat for the opening day, Mani, of Stone Roses and Primal Scream fame, was DJ-ing and spinning out 1960-era classics from the likes of The Who.
Liam has always been a hit with football followers, both musically and culturally, epitomising the one-of-the-lads atmosphere that emerged in the mid-1990s and explaining a gathering of more than 100 shoppers/fans. It is not difficult to understand that his fashion-sense has also struck the right note with the aesthetically-minded on the terraces.
Attire varies from a 'green label', which is a'focused, casual range dedicated to providing quality, everyday signature pieces', to a 'black label' of 'classic British tailoring, using fine fabrics with an innovative attention to detail'. As a result, Pretty Green has already picked up the 2010 Menswear Brand of the Year at the prestigious Drapers Fashion Awards.
'Green label' caters for denim jeans and jackets to fur-trimmed parkas; crew-neck T-shirts to merino cardigans; silk scarves to desert boots. 'Black label' offers velvet peacoats to dogtooth trousers; paisley print collarless shirts to vintage pinstripe blazers; roll-necked knitwear to trenchcoats.
To make matters all the more appealing, prices are of a designer level, but they are not set at the extortionate value of some brands that only cater for those with a bank balance to match the millionaires in City's squad.
Whether Liam's dream of City signing Messi and winning the Premier League become a reality in 2011 remains to be seen, but it is not tough to imagine Pretty Green going from strength to strength.

Lionel Messi
Oasis
What is this 'Wonder-wall' you speak of?"
For a couple months now, odd stories of Lionel Messi's newfound, yet obsessive love for Oasis have been coming from The Sun. From Messi's doomed vow to beat Germany for the English band to his invitation for Noel Gallagher to visit him in Barcelona, the delightful stories have spread, affirming's Messi's Oasis preoccuation for all to read. Even we were seduced by Messi's tale of first falling in love with the band introduced to him on the plane to South Africa by Manchester resident Carlos Tevez.
But as ridiculous as each installment has been, the latest was just a bit too ridiculous. Again, from The Sun:
SOCCER superstar LIONEL MESSI has formed an OASIS tribute band - and is taking them on a secret European tour.
The Argentinian World Player Of The Year has revealed he performs as guitarist NOEL GALLAGHER.
Hitman Messi, 23, has also recruited a Barcelona team-mate to play singer LIAM - but won't say who it is yet.
He said: "Our disguise is based on how Oasis looked in the mid-90s. We have our wigs, clothes and glasses sorted.
"I also spent a lot of time getting the mannerisms right."
Messi says his band will tour soon - and says he's invited Noel to see them play.
He said: "We'll visit the UK. If you're at a pub or club where we are performing and see past our disguises there'll be a decent prize in it for you."
Like the others, this story of the man who supposedly just discovered Oasis on the plane to South Africa somehow already having a cover band formed, disguises set, and mannerisms down pat is spreading. It's so fantastic and smothered in whimsy that we want it to be true, but it seems no part of the Messi hearts Oasis affair actually is.
On June 27, weeks after Messi was reported to have become a Gallagher lover, award-winning Argentine journalist Clemente Cancela tweeted:
End of a myth: Messi does not know Oasis. I repeat: does not know Oasis. He told me.
So it's the word of a man with legitimate access to Messi against the showbiz section of The Sun. Believe what you want.

Noel Gallagher
Lionel Messi has invited Bizarre lord Noel Gallagher to see him play in El Classico - the Barcelona-Real Madrid derby.
Bizarre revealed Oasis were the inspiration for pre-match preparations in the Argentina dressing-room during the World Cup in South Africa.
Now the Barcelona and Argentina star Messi, probably the world's best player, hopes to return the favour by getting Oasis guitar legend and Man City fan Noel over to Barcelona's Nou Camp stadium.
He said: "Maybe Noel could give the boys a live set after training and they could see how great Oasis are.
"At the moment they refuse to listen to anything other than Kasabian.
"We could also go for an Argentinean steak at this great South American restaurant in Barcelona. And if my plan works, it will mean Oasis being played in the world's greatest football club - after Man City, of course!"
There are some footie clashes all fans would love to go to - Boca Juniors v River Plate in Argentina, The Old Firm derby in Glasgow and Liverpool v Everton on Merseyside.
But the real big one? The Mc Classico Edinburgh derby between Hibs and Hearts, on November 6 at Easter Road.

Messi had the Manchester band's 1994 track Rock And Roll Star blasted out on the team coach stereo on Saturday.
A source said: "He was really keen to hype up the team with this rousing anthem. Unfortunately it didn't produce the desired result."
The South Americans were battered by Germany in South Africa.
Barcelona superstar Messi, 23, was introduced to Oasis's music by team-mate and Man City ace Carlos Tevez. Oasis's Noel Gallagher recorded a TV good luck message for the final. It has now been axed.

Lionel Messi has vowed to beat the German squad for the sake of his favourite band Oasis.
The striker said: "If they love England as much as they do Manchester City, you can tell them from me I will do everything I can to defeat the team who knocked their beloved England out of the Cup."
Messi has been listening to Oasis tunes on his iPod before games in South Africa.
The Barcelona forward would like to meet the Gallagher brothers after his Cup duties.
He added: "Maybe we can all watch a game at Manchester City."
Ah, but he'll have to schedule in two City games as the siblings still aren't talking.

Lionel Messi
Oasis
The combined skills of Ghandi, Kofi Annan, Nelson Mandela and Terry Waite would struggle to broker peace between the warring Oasis brothers.
But Lionel Messi - the planet's most special footballer since Archie Gemmill - reckons he can smooth the volatile diplomatic minefield between Noel and Liam Gallagher.
The little wizard has spent the World Cup receiving a masterclass in Oasis from his Argentina team-mate, Manchester City star Carlos Tevez.
And the Barcelona Lord has fallen in love with the band, vowing to do everything in his power to get them back together if the Argies win the World Cup. Messi said: "Ever since he has been playing in Manchester, Carlitos has told me how great Oasis was. I kept promising I would listen to them, but I never got round to it.
"On the plane on the way to the World Cup Carlitos made me listen to their first two albums. I have to say I wasn't expecting much but it is some of the best material I have ever heard. They are absolutely amazing.
"Their songs are incredible. I would have to say Supersonic and Live Forever are my favourites. I have been listening to their stuff on my iPod dock in the hotel room, on the way to the matches and in the dressing room. I can't believe it's taken me all this time to finally listen to them.
"I've been watching their live performances on YouTube and they look like they'd be amazing to see in concert.
"I asked Carlitos if we could go and see them in Manchester or London in concert, but he told me they have split up.
"I showed the rest of the boys in the Argentina squad their stuff and I promise you, everybody absolutely loves it.
"A few knew a couple of their songs but for most of them it was their first listen.
"We have agreed that if we win the World Cup we want to fly them over to Argentina for our celebration party.
"We just need them to name their price."
I'm sure Noel would enjoy a spot of chin-stroking contemplation about that after an early afternoon bag of Monster Munch.
Argentina boss Maradona is a fan of the Man City supporting boys too. He met them in Buenos Aires back in 1997, months before he was sentenced for shooting journalists.
It would take an act from the Hand of God to repair the biblical scrap between the most famous feuding brothers.
