I nearly linked to the same story. Gary Neville is an exceptionally good bloke, as well as bring the finest pundit on TV - I learn so much about foitball from watching him, and reading his journalism.
I believe a group of ex Man U players (including Neville, Giggs and I think Scholes) have also bought a small club - think it is Salford - with a view to developing a community club and nurturing grass roots talent.
