Hundreds of ticketless Oasis fans were sneaked into one of the band’s Wembley gigs in a major security breach.
As many as 200 revellers paid £350 each to be snuck into the iconic stadium via a disabled entrance.
Two tipsters claimed a large group of fans were able to all use a copy of the same ticket to get into the venue.
They were then handed wristbands giving them access to the VIP area at the front of the stage as Liam and Noel Gallagher performed.
The two women masterminding the scam are said to have told the tipsters they had ‘ten groups of 20’ waiting – meaning around 200 are likely to have been sneaked in.
Explaining how the scam worked, one of the fans said they were given their tickets before a woman drew a shape on their hands.
They claimed the group was then instructed to go to the disabled door at entrance M – despite the tickets saying entrance F.
One of the fans told The Sun: ‘We showed our stamped hands to the person on the door, they scanned the tickets, even though we all had the same one, and let us in. Another member of staff then handed us a golden circle wristband and that was it.
‘There were zero security searches. We just walked straight in.’
The Daily Mail understands that over five nights at Wembley, six fans were arrested for trying to get in without a ticket, while 24 ticketless revellers were kicked out.
Last night Wembley said police could be called in to investigate the security breach – which they viewed as a ‘serious offence’.
A spokesman for Wembley Stadium said: ‘Entering Wembley Stadium without a ticket is a serious offence and we are investigating these allegations. If they are substantiated, we will refer our evidence to the police.’
Oasis-fever hit London as the band returned to the capital to play their first gig there in more than 16 years last month.
After a run of homecoming gigs in Manchester’s Heaton Park, the rock and roll stars, fronted by Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel, took to the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium on July 25.
Fans pitched up at the venue 12 hours before the start having paid at least £151 per ticket – but some have paid £564 or more for the best seats.
The band announced their highly anticipated reunion tour in August last year, after Noel quit in 2009 after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
It comes as Oasis fever has gripped Edinburgh tonight as 70,000 fans crammed into the city for the Gallagher brothers’ first Scots show together in 16 years.
The atmosphere in the Scottish capital was electric, with pubs and bars in the area crammed full of gig-goers ahead of the concert.
Bucket hats, parkas and Oasis-branded T-shirts were the order of the day as fans celebrated the much-anticipated reunion show.
Lucky ticket holders for the sold-out gig could be heard singing Oasis hits as they made their way to the first Scottish appearance in the band’s 41-date worldwide tour.
Such was the demand that tickets on resale site Viagogo were going for up to £2,500.
As the swarms of fans made their way to the home of Scottish Rugby, they met with Liam and Noel Gallagher lookalikes. Meanwhile, Joel Rushton, 20, and 22-year-old Euan Fraser, from Stirling, played Oasis tunes on the bagpipes and guitar outside the stadium.
Some came along to soak up the atmosphere despite not having tickets.
The group’s generation-spanning appeal was clear from the hordes of parents taking their children to the gig to share in the excitement together.
TV and radio presenter Gordon Smart was among them, accompanied by his 15-year-old son Jimmy.
Also going to the sell-out concert was Sam Bidder, 36, with his wife Nicky, 37, and their girls Luna, 11, and Libby, nine.
Mr Bidder, who lives in East Lothian, said: ‘We were probably just a bit too young to go the first time round when we were teenagers.
‘So it’s great to have the chance when they’re still hopefully young enough to put on an amazing show and we’re still young enough to really appreciate it.
‘They’re the songs that we grew up listening to. And the girls are really into their music – I want them to experience a band like Oasis.’
