A FENCE has been put up to stop fans watching Oasis gigs for free.
At the weekend hundreds of people without tickets realised they could see large screens near the stage in Heaton Park from a nearby hillock.
Some brought picnics while others enjoyed a drink as they danced the night away for free – while those inside Heaton Park had paid up to £400 for a ticket.
Yesterday the vantage point — dubbed Gallagher Hill — was screened off with a large green fence.
It sparked anger online from those hoping to see tonight's gig and others on Saturday and Sunday.
One said on X: "B******s.
"It's not as if the concerts are losing money."
"All the shows sold out", fumed someone else.
Manchester council said the site has been fenced off to "dissuade people from gathering there and to protect livestock and newly-planted trees".
At last weekend's gigs ticketless fans tried to get over security fences with a ladder.
