Speaking on BBC's The One Show on Thursday, Noel was pressed on whether the band would reunite if they received an induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
He admitted: 'I’d do it. I guess you’d have to [reunite] to accept it. That’s if you accept it. I would be thrilled to do it.'
When he was pressed on whether he would honour his word, he said: 'I’m gonna say no. We can say yes. Shall we say yes?'
The Wonderwall singer added: 'Absolutely. I would be thrilled to do it.'

The musician has been warring with his younger sibling and musical rival since their, and although the pair are still at loggerheads, Liam Gallagher recently admitted he would be open to the possibility of them meeting up and putting the past behind them.
He told The Sunday Mirror: 'I hope we make up. Not just for Oasis but for brothers. Enough is enough now. I know I wind him up. I have put it out there enough times, but I think he doesn't want to know. I reckon we would have to meet up and hug it out, as they say.'
However, Noel was quick to shoot down the claims during his appearance on The Graham Norton Show last week when he claimed Liam was 'obsessed’ with him.
Liam later hit back by tweeting: 'I think he's obsessed with me the creepy little tart'.
