Gary Neville delivers epic two-word Super League response

Former Man United and England right-back turned broadcaster, Gary Neville, isn’t backwards in coming forwards with an opinion.

An acquired taste for many, Neville is nonetheless forthright with his stance on various issues and rarely backs down if he believes there is a point to be made.

The Super League judgment handed down by the European Court of Justice on Thursday effectively vindicated Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The Spanish giants had suggested that UEFA and FIFA had held a monopoly over European football which contravened European law.

It could end up being something of a hollow victory in the end, however, as a number of top clubs have already issued statements saying they want nothing to do with the Super League.

Neville had his say, and managed to convey his feelings by using just two words.
