Listening to some Liverpool fans on the radio afterwards I just wanted to laugh. They were SOOO offended.
These were the same fans who had been mocking George Best during their songs earlier. Makes you wanna puke (to coin a phrase).
Any punishment handed out to Neville will make Cantona's 9 month community service for the kung-fu kick look like a complete token gesture.
To be fair Ade....if the boot was on the other foot ie. Liverpool had scored a last minute winner and some Liverpool players had celebrated in a similar vein, there's no doubt some Man United fans would have been on the radio offended. It happens.....
I'm just glad it went the way it did!!
However it's a passionate sport.....Gary Neville cares enormously about United and his team had just scored a last minute winner...his celebration reflected that.
I wouldn't want them to take this away from the sport.....it would deprive us of some of the magic!!!
Phuza, Bepha , Souza!!
