Gary Neville is being ridiculous again

[Peter]

Raya punches the ball, and Nevile wants a penalty because the forward got a touch on it first? Which is completely irrelevant.

****ing absurd.

He also wanted a penalty for Dec's elbow and thought their late overhead kick was onside initially.

I think he won 7 PL titles. In that time, we won 3. They had a great manager and an amazing generation of kids coming through, but there had been a "Big 5" all with similar sized stadia. The post-Hillsborough move to all-seater meant that 4 grounds shrunk - I think Anfield was 44k, us 38k, Sperz 36k - but they were able to expand up to 75k.

Suddenly they had a massive advantage and this coinciding the PL and CL money meant that we could have ended up one of those one-club countries. They were able to spend ?30m on Ferdinand one year and Rooney the next - buying the best English players up because they were the only team to play for given their dominance and if it hadn't been for AW - who only had an ?11m Titi and ?12m Skiltord above the ?7m he paid for Overmars - then English football could have been destroyed for good.

But 30 years later, he still takes it personally that this {totally legal} financial dominance meant they only won 7 titles, not all 10.

That is pathetically twisted.
