Nev is going OFF. Go on Gaz
Neville going in, skewering people left right and centre.
Go on Gary, he’s laying into everyone
Well said Gary Neville
I don’t say this very often but Gary Neville is absolutely spot on.
Well said Gaz!
Well said Gaz!
So what? Hasn't it been demonstrated that it costs the city money? So if the city residents know this and they vote against it, then I see no problem.
There's no chance these billionaires wouldn't have amassed all the estimation in the details to make a decision of such a magnitude. I'm not entirely against the idea of a super League but it needs to address risk / reward more prominently.
Brilliant response from Gary Neville. Stuck his neck right out and pulled no punches whatsoever.
Go on Gary lad
the average fans can’t afford footballs as it is. Not saying this is right. But it’s been a long time since football was for the average fan.
To those who says ”but UEFA is bad to”. Well, UEFA isn’t perfect but who are giving money to smaller federations? To even say that they are on same level as this proposed fake league is so far from the truth.
They are testing the waters to see the public reaction. Hopefully the message back is loud and clear.
Premier League had this coming when they let Abramovich, Glazers, Henry, Mansour and all these foreign owners come in. You can have your growth with them pumping money in but eventually they’ll have the power.
So is G Nev for or against it??
You tell ‘em Gary!
I agree with everything you say.

Gary Neville, what a man.
Not sure Gary made his feelings known well enough! Can't stand it when he sits on the fence 
I fear the end of our club and football as we know it will finally come to an end - but can’t say I’m surprised. Football has been gearing towards this for years.
Agree with Neville's every word.
often it's a blessing but I'm raging my river ran dry before the post match today.
Gary Neville is minding his own investments, you sheep. His Salford City project depends on the big clubs staying and not messing up the payment structure.
It works in all US sports though. It is not a matter of opinion, there is a lot of evidence that it might work.
For example, two groups of two with top 4 teams of each group getting qualified for playoffs. That would mean, that the majority of the teams will be playing for playoffs, so they will have something to play.
It will probably be a bit alien, but not necessarily bad, and it can easily work.
Fantastic from Neville
Will the Glazers really sacrifice PL and CL just for money ? Fans will surely backlash right ? I really can't believe this will be the future of United, to play in such shitty competition and no more thinking every season if we'll win the PL or not. FFS, please just roll out of this shit.
That is true. Maybe I should rephrase, how can most people afford this.
Gary coming out like a prime Stone Cold, hitting everyone with those chair shots.
Let them have it.
Let them have it.
Statement at 21:30.
You want to come to mine and take Molly?
I presume it works in American sports because it has been the model from the beginning? I like that there is no relegation/promotion in those sports because it makes sense in the American context, but it has no business in European sports.
Calling us a small club. Wow.
The FA in this country have sat by as these suddenly oh so important clubs have folded (mostly due to relatively peanuts financial troubles) left, right and centre. Their pearl clutching today about how we need to keep the pyramid structure because money flows down from the big boys who have apparently signed up to this is the biggest load of shit I've ever heard.
Oh, you know, he could actually just be against the idea like most fans of football.
Gary! “United have acted like a small club for 8 years!”
This seems like the kind of thing that will favour the super rich clubs (City, Madrid, PSG etc) in the long run, so I'm actually surprised the "rich, but not that rich" clubs like United, Arsenal and Liverpool are actually in favour.
true. All you will get is 96% home attendances as well. Bollocks.
and Sky, BT, BBC, ITV etc will likely lose out too, so obviously there will be a lot of vested interest in discrediting the proposal
I agree with Neville 100%.
However, the irony of the Salford City owner talking about skewing the playing field hasn't been lost on lower league fans!

How the hell are Spurs and Arsenal involved in this?
Leicester and Everton must be fuming.
