More than happy for the club he professes to love having some clearly failing manager stay in charge, but gets rid of managers quick smart when his own coin is involved.

Have to laugh.

It's funny how things go though isn't it.

We all hated Carragher when he played. An absolute living personification of a rabid scouser supreme.
Now he always seems to be the one chatting sense while our G Nev does all sorts of infuriating stuff.

Remember him fawning over Lukaku after a couple of tap ins early season? Then late season, "oooh yeah he's not had the strongest of seasons". :lol:

To be fair, Neville has taken responsibility for previous sackings. Amongst all of the co-owners, he's the most involved day-to-day. With the rest of the Class of 92 and Peter Lim following his lead.

Probably not the minority shareholder. Gary Neville owns 10% of the club.
You only have to watch the documentary to see it's Gary being the main decision maker.

Like all pundits their opinions and statements are purely hypothetical. Never tested. Rarely questioned.

Gary to be fair has now put himself in a real life situation. Owner of a club. Now we see how different it is in real life where decisions have consequences.

I actually don‘t mind ol’ G Nev, I think he’s hilarious in a kinda ‘ befuddled and flustered but strangely innocuous way’
and the way he ran faster than he’d ever done in his career to taunt the scousers at OT is quite the memory

Those player and ex player interviews he does on youtube are actually really good but his punditry however is on par with his managerial skills.

He's usually a good pundit. It's just that when he says anything about United, everything is so tainted by who he's friends with and who he's not that it ends up not bearing much resemblance to reality.

I wish he'd either be honest or just shut the feck up about us if he can't.

I mean he's admitted to sacking managers too fast and said he wouldn't in the future on Sky but he's at it again, the hypocritical little cnut.
Can’t say I’ve seen it so can’t really comment. It would surprise me if he was running the entire club while working for Sky and all his other business activities.

I'll take your word if you say he's overall a good pundit because the only times I listen to him in that regard is when te talks about us and I can't stand most of his rubbish.

He’s obviously not running the club solely, he makes all the big decisions though and is definitely head of it all.

Have Salford appointed a new manager yet? I wonder if at some point he'll put his money where his mouth is and appoint Ole.

Sick joke on Twitter about how he took in refugees and bored them so much with tactics talk they went back to Ukraine.
Don't think he should get tangled with Utd fans like he's starting to, though...
