The ex-Oasis musician announced a series of concerns of his band, Noel Gallagher and The Flying Birds to promote the band's new album, Council Skies, much to the delight of his fans. Excitement over the news has been somewhat blighted, however, over the confirmation that the Kasabian musician would be joining the December dates of the tour. Meighan was arrested in July 2020 after assaulting his then-fiancée and now wife, Vikki Ager, within 24 hours of his shocking departure from the English rock band. He was sentenced to 200 hours of community service after pleading guilty and has since completed rehab treatment for his alcohol addiction and 'behavioural issues'. In July 2021, he and Vikki married in an intimate ceremony that aligned with COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. Noel has received a wave of backlash in response to the news, with many folks taking to social media to criticize the Champagne Supernova singer for giving Meighan such a huge platform. "What on earth is he doing having Tom Meighan as his support? The guy tw*tted his miss ffs and got kicked out of Kasabian for it," one unimpressed fan wrote, while another said, "Is domestic abuse the forgivable crime? Violence against women fine if you're famous? I struggle to get it." Others were so outraged that they have decided to skip the concert altogether in protest. "Selling one standing ticket for Noel Gallagher in Glasgow!! I'm so f**king angry that he's allowing Tom Meighan be his support!" one unimpressed fan wrote, shortly after another disgusted person posted, "Put my ticket up for sale! Tom Meighan is absolutely despicable & disappointed Noel would have someone like him as his support." Noel ha){kind=link}
