They played the Europa League final as #ManchesterUnited so you'd think at an absolute minimum they'd have thrown in the prize money and/or the player's win bonus.

What do you know about it? Manchester United and Manchester City give loads to local community projects as do most of the football clubs up and down the UK
It isn't a week since the atrocity and in due course none of the clubs be it United City Bury Rochdale Bolton Oldham etc will be found wanting

And I'd say the same about ANY club. In general I wouldn't slap anyone who gives money to charity as regardless how much money they have they are under no obligation to give. HOWEVER, in this instance there are almost bound to give a hefty donation. In these instances the Premier League footballer can't win so the club should have taken the lead and donated their Europa League winnings considering there was so much emotion invested in their win. City should have lashed a few million in no questions asked.

Was it too much to ask Noel and Liam to put their differences aside and have Oasis reunion for one night only tonight?

Nice concert.

Have no idea if any effort to get them together but saw funny tweet. "Noel Gallagher hates his younger brother more than ISIS"

Danny Baker on Twitter - "Should the Gallagher brothers have reunited for Manchester concert? Of course. 100%. But pricks like them think its bigger than that."
"When it's too tough for them, it's just right for us"

That's what I thought as well - it would have turned into the Oasis show and taken away from the poignancy of the whole thing. Not the right audience either . Live Forever, don't look back in anger etc are Manchester anthems, bit other than that, the crowd were there for Bieber and Niall Horan and Miley Cyrus and, of course Ariana Grande.

Have to say she's come across very well through all of this. Didn't know much about her before but she's got a serious set of pipes on her and deserves a lot of credit for her reaction to everything.

Yeah there was a few blank faces in the crowd with Don't Look Back in Anger came on sure they had to put the lyrics on the screen in the background. I thought Live Forever would have brought the house down but it wasn't that kind of audience.
