No offense intended towards him, but he makes Cameron B look like his in the Mensa group of intelligence.

I don't know much about him as a commentator (West Ham fan, obviously I'm really clueless about football or I'd choose a team that didn't break my heart week after week), but I do know he was happy to pull on an England shirt more than a thousand times and take everything that that brings... not so happy to fly the flag.

My absolute favourite thing about Gary Neville is the knowledge that his father was called Neville Neville. A family of vast imagination it seems...

Same here tbh, Blues haven't won a match in god knows how long, it's starting to feel frustrating.

At least we're not Rangers fans though.

And yeah the name Neville Neville does make me laugh too.

And I'm sure that Gary Neville is a nice guy, but he can be too earnest sometimes imo.

Being fans like us at least teaches us to face crushing disappointment in in other areas of our lives. It's character building.

I watched a thing about Neville yesterday. The camera went along the line and all the lads were singing the national anthem, not him though, he stood with his head down, time after time. Happy to pull on the shirt and accept all the riches playing for his national team brings, but not willing to sing the anthem or even raise his head. He's a disgrace.

Too true, I am more prepared to fail at something than I am at succeeding, thanks to Birmingham City.

Didn't he at least mime through the national anthem?

He just stood with his head down, not just once either. Like he was ashamed. Well, now he has something to be ashamed of, I guess.

It explains why he never really played that great for England.
