On my first day in the job he called my editor to have a go at her. She wasn't in, so he basically shouted at me about somerhing or rather, forget what it was now. Think it was a picture we'd used of him that he didn't like. Then, he accused me of making up a quote in an interview I did with him, despite me offering to play it back to him from my dictaphone. He demanded we pull the interview and do another one, with someone else doing it.

The only reason I interviewed him in the first place was that he'd fallen out with all our other writers. I was the latest in a long line!

I repeat, Gary Neville is a dick and always will be.  Not all that as a player, major chip on his shoulder, acts the hard man without backing it up and is too bias to be a commentator.

Phil seems a good bloke.

Gary Neville was a great player.

If Paolo was to leave tomorrow, no matter how unlikely - I'd want to see Gary Neville here as the gaffer. Knows his shit.

Phil yes, Gary no. Plus Phil's missus is tasty. They live in a ridiculous converted old peoples' home with massive gold letters P & J (for mi Julie) on their gate.

May have been as a player, but comes across very well on sky sports.  Hes one of only a few pundits who talks sense, unlikes those wanker Lawernson and the biggest twat of all Motson

 Gary is OK in the studio as an analyst, but terrible as a summariser. For match summary, less is more, you need someonre you don't really notice...a bit like a decent ref.  When it comes to pre-match and half/full time analysis, you need someone to waffle on the cliches, then the more discerning punter needn't watch. Gary fits well enough in that role.

I'm sure he said on Tuesday, that it was written in the stars that Chelsea would win, so they could face Mourinho...yeah right.

A good pundit/analyst doesn't mean they would make a good manager in the slightest.
