Noel Gallagher stands up for Sven

Gallagher spoke to BBC Radio Five Live about Thaksin getting rid of Eriksson:

To get rid of him after the best season I can remember is ridiculous. It can't be for any footballing reasons. We've got a manager who's got style. If the owner thought they could come in and qualify for the Champions League straight away then he's tripping. Eriksson is a graceful and dignified man. This guy Shinawatra has come in and he seems like a bit of a nutcase.

The Oasis frontman once drew an analogy, likening his City fandom with his support for the Labour party, saying "even if you don't like a striker [and, I suppose, the owner as well in this case] you don't give up supporting the whole team."
