The estranged father of Liam and Noel Gallagher has hit out at his sons by saying they ‘don’t know f***ing music’.

Irish-born Thomas Augustin Gallagher hasn’t seen the Oasis duo for years, who’ve never forgiven him for how they treated their mother Peggy when they were boys.

Since the duo reunited for their tour last week, a video has come to light of Thomas – who goes by Tommy – dismissing his sons’ illustrious career. 

In the 2018 video, TikToker Jack Burke was filming in Manchester when Tommy walked past and intervened, saying: ‘Have you heard of the band Oasis? I’m their father. Noel and Liam Gallagher.’

When Jack asked for his name, he said: ‘Thomas Augustus Gallagher’ – pulling his passport out of his pocket to show to Jack. 

As Jack walks off, Tommy retorts: ‘[Them] guys talking about music, they wouldn’t f***ing know music if it f***ing bit them.’

Tommy and Peggy divorced in 1986 after being separated for a number of years, with Peggy moving out of their family home in Burnage with their sons after Tommy’s drinking and gambling problem spiralled into violent outbursts.

Noel was 19 and Liam 14 at the time.

Speaking about the split, Peggy previously said: ‘I left him a knife and a fork and a spoon. And I think I left him too much.’

Noel and Liam cut ties with their father when they moved out, with Liam opening about his childhood in a 2018 interview with The Telegraph.

He said: ‘I was about seven when my mam left my dad. He was out all the time, fighting, beating my mam up, beating Noel and Paul up. Never touched me, though.

‘Then, one night, while he was out, my mam got her brothers round, got all our gear in a truck, left him a mattress, and we went off to our new house.’

In the video, Tommy reveals he is the father of the Mancunian brothers before declaring: '[Them] guys talking about music, they wouldn¿t f***ing know music if it f***ing bit them¿

Liam and Noel Gallagher's estranged father, 77, faces being homeless after losing his Manchester property where the Oasis brothers grew up after it was 'stolen' by family friend – as he asks his sons to buy the house back

Meanwhile, Noel confessed the abuse he suffered at the hands of his ‘violent, alcoholic’ father made him worry about what sort of parent he would be.

Speaking on Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs in 2015, he revealed he developed a stammer as a result of the beatings he got from his father, and said he didn’t want to repeat the mistakes which scarred his ‘horrific’ childhood.

Tommy last made headlines in 2021 when he urged his sons to buy their three-bed childhood home to save him from homelessness. He’d lived there since 1972.

He faced having his house repossessed when his mortgage deal expired, leaving him needing to cough up £27,000.

He claimed a childhood pal of Noel’s called Thomas Keenan suggested his brother Ricky could buy the house for him, and it was agreed he could live in the home rent-free.

However it is alleged he actually signed papers agreeing to pay £650 a month in rent.

The house is now owned by a property firm and neighbours say they haven’t seen Tommy in a while.

Last week saw Liam and Noel reunite for the first time in 16 years as they kicked off their tour in Cardiff on Friday.

Fans of the band were blown away as the duo delivered an electrifying set, packed with energy and nostalgia.

Throughout their various sets, poignant pictures of the family’s home in Manchester flashed up on the screen along with baby pictures of both brothers.

Old black and white pictures of their mum Peggy and dad Tommy were also flashed in the screen from time to time as Stand By Me played.

On Saturday night, Noel and Liam continued their display of unity as they held hands during their entrance.

While the pair had chemistry on stage, it’s been said Liam and Noel are taking extreme measures throughout their reunion tour by staying apart to avoid another rift.

It’s claimed they are staying in separate hotels half an hour away from each other.
