December 2, 201510 yr He's off to Valencia to be Phil's boss, haha. RIP MNF. Sky Sports just got considerably sh*tter.
December 2, 201510 yr Author Makes a bit more sense now... 'Peter Lim, Valencia's Singaporean owner, has a stake in Salford City, the non-league club co-owned by Neville.'
December 2, 201510 yr I can honestly say I didn't see that one coming... how hilarious. Good luck to him!
December 2, 201510 yr MNF will still have this... https://vine.co/v/O9YKz5qMxuu Edited December 2, 201510 yr by RichardCFC
December 2, 201510 yr Well that's odd. Phil Neville already works there as the assistant manager, I would have thought he would have been given the nod.
December 2, 201510 yr Well that's odd. Phil Neville already works there as the assistant manager, I would have thought he would have been given the nod. He's always been second best to Gary.
December 2, 201510 yr Good luck to him. I am sure he'll now find out it's a lot harder out in the field, rather than in a studio analysing tactical ineptness and mistakes from managers. I do hope he does well though, because it would be nice to have a brit do well managing a top Spanish side.
December 2, 201510 yr Makes a bit more sense now... 'Peter Lim, Valencia's Singaporean owner, has a stake in Salford City, the non-league club co-owned by Neville.' Buying part of a FC to acquire the manager you want? The game continues to evolve.....
December 2, 201510 yr That's a shame. He's one of the only pundit's actually worth listening too. I suppose it will be back to listening to the scouse lovers from now on once again then.
December 2, 201510 yr I think he will do good as a manager, I always thought It was a great move by Hodgson to make him one of his assistants. Also as others have said, he was the most refreshing pundit in years.
December 3, 201510 yr http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11837/10087775/gary-neville-says-he-couldnt-turn-down-valencia-job Apparently he felt like had to give it a go and try to prove he can walk the walk as well. "Sitting on TV talking about coaches these last few years, the time has come for me to stand up. This is a wonderful football club. If I turned down this opportunity, I would have lost some credibility."

It's a huge risk but unavoidable at some stage. In today's paper, a former (un named) Valencia manager said the role was a thankless task and recalled receiving hostile whistling from fans on the day he was presented to them!

December 3, 201510 yr Andy Gray never had the guts to do it To be fair Andy Gray is a clueless gobsh*te; Neville actually seems to know what he's on about.
December 6, 201510 yr Secured a 1-1 with Barca tonight... interestingly still no sign of Negredo near the squad.
