The Overlap | Gary Neville’s 50th Birthday Surprise Party With Special Guests! | Stick to Football EP 71

I'm not watching this episode. Too much Neville on the TV. I don't even hate him like some seen to, but this is too much :lol:

I managed about 10 minutes and the only good thing to come out of it is that it sounds like Neville plans to go on a bunch of holidays in the next 12 months. Might get a little respite from his omnipresence.
 
I thought it was going to be a slightly longer segment than usual with a few jokes and cake. Not a fecking hour long testimonial with his family coming to tell us how a nice guy he is.

That still sounds less cringeworthy than the previous episode where he handed out printouts of his match schedules from his time managing Valencia, while repeatedly insisting that he wasn't trying to make a point about how difficult he had it but rather make a point about how difficult current managers have it... I wanted to peel my own skin off watching that.

That fixture list was interesting as it was a very hectic schedule to go into for a new manager and in the broader point of congested fixtures hindering training etc was a good point.

Yeah it absolutely was but the fact he'd printed out handouts for everyone and also kept going on about how he wasn't trying to make excuses for himself was toe-curling.

I'm not a Nev hater (though he can be a bit much sometimes) but it was just dead awkward to watch.
 
I thought it was quite a nice episode.
Same here, though they do spoil it by showing some of the upcoming highlights right at the start, surprise guests weren't a surprise because of that.

Keano was brilliant about visiting his brother, there's no excuse for that, especially given the multiple trips he's done to the US in recent months
