Betting suspended on opening song in Cardiff
Gigs backed to overcome sibling rivalry
Betting has been suspended by bookie BoyleSports on which song will open Friday’s hugely anticipated Oasis comeback gig in Cardiff.
Excited fans of the iconic band have been having their say on the setlist, but alleged leaks of audio belting out from soundchecks at the Principality Stadium this week have provided a potential clue as to what hits have made the cut.
Acquiesce Fancied
The odds at BoyleSports last week suggested that ‘Hello’ and ‘Rock n Roll Star’ were the most likely openers when the Gallagher brothers appear on stage for the first time since their acrimonious split in 2009.
However, fan favourite B-side Acquiesce was backed down to even money favourite to top the setlist for the Cardiff extravaganza on Friday evening before the betting market was pulled by oddsmakers as the countdown nears it end. Flag wavers like Live Forever and Champagne Supernova were rated more likely candidates to close out the gigs.
The Live ’25 Tour will also visit Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin before heading around the world and while some might say that a new brotherly bust-up could put paid to the schedule, the chances of the former feuding duo completing their money-spinning shows without a hiccup remain red-hot at 1/2.
Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said:
“Excitement among Oasis fans has reached fever pitch and they’re probably not half the world away when backing Acquiesce to kick it all off in Cardiff.”
