Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
After the Palace game at the end he kept saying ‘Tottenham have been thrashed’ etc
No need for it
Neville is a good pundit but there is an incredible amount of mental gymastics he partakes in, he's a hypocrite at times. Knows he can't do the moral outrage thing like he did for the ESL even though this is worse so he tried to justify it by chatting complete shit.
Hard to say, but possibly a difference between the NUFC and CFC one is that the latter is a video clip that has been paused, something that is notorious unreliable - any football fan could be caught "hailing" (as opposed to heiling) from a still frame and thus accused.
The former is a still photo - if the bloke was doing some harmless Nooocassssel song in his impenetrable dialect, then why would it have been taken? It might also be suspected that he repeated the Zieg Heil or held the pose long enough for the photographer to get the shot, if not the likelihood is that it would have been over in a couple of seconds before they could snap away.
In supporting evidence I would point to the straightness of the arm and hand and the compactness of the fingers, more characteristic of a Heil as opposed to a hail, as well as the steeliness of the gaze.
GUILTY. GUILTY. GUILTY.

Gotta protect the league. That's all that these Sky fucks care about.
What a load of fucking cobblers by Neville. Out and out bullshit to justify the move. You could argue the ESL might have made the ‘’top 6’’ come under more scrutiny so it’s a good thing.
The House of Saud take over is a level above the ESL. You literally have a government owning a football club and one that is involved in terrorist funding, beheadings, stoning, slavery etc. If that is acceptable than North Korea should also own a club, why not the Taliban as well.
It has shown one thing clearly, all the virtue signally, the BLM, Laces, woman rights is a load of crap because it means nothing soon as someone with money buys them out. Morality for the poor peasants, immorality for the rich. Very much the capitalism for the poor, socialism for the rich mantra. Football and footballers cannot give moral lectures on anything, that have thrown that right away.
He's a part owner of Salford City and they're pumping a shit load of cash into the team, so he doesn't have a problem with financial doping, actually saying that it somehow improves competition whilst conveniently ignoring the fact that City are proving the opposite...
Only just seen the image.
It's the hand isn't it? No one ever has their hand in that position except for this gesture. Try it now without performing a Sieg Heil - it's unnatural, it's difficult, it's actually uncomfortable.
So what happens now? Racial hatred offence and a massive ban?
What a nob. He was obviously doing it long enough or enough times for someone to have time to whip their camera out and take a photo.
No motion-blur either so it's clearly not a case that he's been caught mid-movement by an opportunist.
Extended highlights...notice Tanguy giving the ball away with a lazy pass for the 1st goal there.
If that's what you've noticed and feel the need to highlight it I think you honeslty need to get a life, no offence.
Good pundit?
He's a gobby cunt that spends most of his time promoting Man United as a big club and making sure Sky, his paymasters, are at the forefront of everything.
He regularly contradicts his own opinions when there is an unavoidable conflict.
The fact he can sometimes be outspoken doesn't make him a good pundit. He's gobby.
Don't believe for one minute his immediate attack on the Superleague was about the fans and fair competition. Since when has the PL, with super rich clubs been an open and fair competition?
He was doing his masters bidding. If those 6 clubs left the PL and formed a Superleague and charged fans directly for the right to watch, Sky Sports falls apart. They loose hundreds of millions a year, maybe billions.
naive. If they want in, make sure they sort their shit out first and prove they have reformed. Until then they should be blocked.
It's not something GN should be advocating. Politics and human rights are a minefield.
Yeah I agree but I'm not talking about that, he's disappearedup his own arse over the last few years but he's very good when he's not talking about Man Utd as he doesn't show his bias and he's very good at dissecting and analying the modern game, the fact that he's the best or one of speaks volumes of how bad the rest of our pundits are.
"Same with Qatar and the world cup"
That must be reassuring for all the slave labourers that are being worked to death
Never mind the fact that Emerson gave the ball away about 25 yards from our goal and they still had a lot of work to do in terms of successfully penetrating our defense (and to be fair to NC did well in doing so)....
No, it was the guy failing an attacking pass 85 yards away that shoulders the blame.

It's absolutely mental some of the agenda driven shite on here it really is
There was about 3 errors in that goal, we obviously were trying to settle into the game.
That's true. And the attacking side did a lot of things right. On the breakout they moved quickly and made decisive moves. One bad break during all that was that Emerson, who did a nice job getting back, actually knocked aside a really good pass at the start but his momentum carried him away from the ball and Newcastle recovered and started the buildup to the goal.
