NOEL and Liam Gallagher have hired 24/7 security for their beloved mum Peggy after concerns for her safety.

The brothers, who will perform their first of five shows as Oasis tonight in Manchester's Heaton Park, took the measures in a bid to protect Peggy, 82, after overzealous fans started turning up at her house.

Noel, 58, and Liam, 52, have employed two men to sit outside Peggy's house 24 hours a day in a bid to ensure she is not hassled.

A source said: "Noel and Liam are devoted to their mum Peggy and they knew there would be a lot of interest in her after Oasis reunited.

"They wanted her to keep being able to live a quiet life and there have been fans coming to the house.

"They have employed a security firm to keep an eye on her and make sure she isn't hassled.

"There are two men who sit in a car on the property 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

"The last thing they want is for Peggy to be disturbed and this felt like the most efficient way to stop her being hassled by anyone."

Noel previously said Peggy was nonchalant when they told her they had put their 16-year feud behind them to reunite as Oasis.

He said:  "My mum couldn't give a s**t

"My mum never gave a s**t, never. You know what Irish mums are like?

"When we told her we were getting back together, she said, 'Sure, that will be nice'. That was it."

Noel and Liam kicked off their huge, sold-out 41 date reunion tour last week in Cardiff.

They played two consecutive nights at the Principality Stadium and will now perform five homecoming shows in Manchester.

The 23-song set list remains unchanged and Oasis will be on stage tonight at 8:15pm, with support from Cast at 6pm and Richard Ashcroft from 7pm.

Happy Mondays star Bez has now backed the pair to release another album as Oasis.

He said: "They could make another album.

"I can't see why they wouldn't do it because I'm sure it'd be a worldwide hit to bring another album out after the reception they got."

Of their return to Manchester for the five sold out shows, Bez added:

"I think it'll be absolutely phenomenal.

"It'll be really big in time.

"A monumental moment, that's what it's going to be."
