Ex-Oasis brother is "quitting London"...

Noel Gallagher has announced that he's leaving London... to move back to Manchester. The former Oasis man - born in Longsight and raised in Burnage - has said he's had enough of the Capital, which has been his home since the days of 'Definitely Maybe'.

"I'm leaving London to go back up north, to Manchester," Noel told The Evening Standard at last night's Music Industry Awards. "I've been advised to do a Rod Stewart, as in a tax exile, but I don't want to do it. But London has lost its spark."

What do you think? Should Noel move back to Manc, or should he stay in London Village? Leave a comment below.

  3. I moved to Longsight about ten years ago and the first day I was living there, I hopped off the wonderful 192 and was immediately mugged. Lovely place. Stay in London, Noel.

  4. Apart from being the the voice of a generation,he's aways been a bit of a smart f#@?er in all areas.
    There has never been a better time for buying propertyand there is no finer time to pick up a bargain in Longsight,close to Eastlands,home of his beloved,Man City,it's on the best bus route in the N/W[the 192],a five minute stroll to the curry mile.
    It just makes too much sense not to happen.
