Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher has said the days of the band's bitter Britpop rivalry with Blur are over.

Various music publications have attempted to re-ignite the feud this year following Blur's decision to reform.

But in a message on Oasis' website, Gallagher said he hoped both band's members had “grown up a little” since the mid-90s.

TV presenter Jonathan Ross attempted to question the guitarist about the era on his radio show last Saturday.

However, Gallagher, who pre-recorded the show on the Friday, refused to respond negatively to Ross' questions.

Writing about the interview, Gallagher said: “He's a naughty boy, Jonathan. He was determined to try and get me to have a pop at the Blur re-union. Not this time.

“Those days are long gone. Although it was fun at the time I'd like to think we've all grown up a little bit since then. He has, and it was funny though.”

Oasis played a sold-out show at the Eden Project in Cornwall last night.

The gig followed their three-night concert residency at London's Wembley Stadium last weekend.
