Liam Gallagher has admitted that he was not shocked that Oasis recently split up.

Following his brother Noel's decision to quit the rock group after an altercation on their 2009 world tour, the singer confirmed last week that he would not be continuing the band.

Angry Ape quotes Liam as saying: "I'd love to talk about it but I can't because I haven't - after 18 years in Oasis - had the time to think about the situation.

"It's only been just over a month and I have to sit down and work it out because my comments would be on my musical headstone."

He added: "But I'm gutted. I love being in Oasis. When I'm ready, you will hear my side of the story. It wasn't a shock to me that we split.

"It took the members of Oasis to knock it on the head. All the people who said we wouldn't last? We did - and in the end no-one got to us except for us. We were the ones who brought Oasis down and not our critics. I'm very proud of that."
