‘How does it feel to be blanked?’ – Gary Neville mocked by Sky Sports pals over Cristiano Ronaldo snub at Man Utd

Published on October 31, 2022 at 07:31 PM

GARY NEVILLE was mocked by Micah Richards and Roy Keane while being quizzed about his hilarious Cristiano Ronaldo snub.

The Portuguese superstar, 37, appeared to ignore Neville when he came over to speak to Louis Saha during Sky Sports’ live coverage of the Red Devils’ 1-0 win over West Ham on Sunday.

The ex-England right-back was the subject of much ridicule on social media following the incident.

And his fellow Sky pundit Richards has now piled in on Neville with a clip posted to Twitter on Monday morning.

Heading into a lift alongside Keane, Richards filmed Neville and asked him: “How does it feel to be blanked?”;

Keane then added: “It must feel good to be blanked though because...”;

Neville then interrupted, responding: “Do you know something, though? It means he’s watched... yeah.”;

Richards then pressed Neville by asking: “Do you think it’s a bit petty, Gary?”;

The United legend – keen to not start a war of words with Ronaldo – replied: “No, erm, I think if I had 570 million followers on Instagram I wouldn’t be a**ed about Gary Neville.”;

To which Richards said: “He’s your ex-teammate though, come on.”;

But Neville shut down that link, responding: “Yeah, but he doesn’t behave like someone who’s played with me. Or him [Keane] for that matter.”;

The camera then cut to a smiling Keane, with Richards finishing the clip by saying: “Honestly, he won’t say a bad word about Ronaldo.”;

Ronaldo’s blanking of Neville came after he was embroiled in a heated argument with Keane last weekend over Ronaldo’s recent contributions.

Neville was critical of the striker̢۪s strop in the previous game against Spurs as Keane put up a fierce defence.

And he found Ronaldo’s snub towards him somewhat entertaining, saying on air: “We’re off the Christmas card list.”;

Neville’s Sky colleague Jamie Carragher, who was ignored by Ronaldo earlier in the season, then took to social media.

He tweeted: “Welcome to the blanked by Ronaldo club @GNev2.”;

Carragher was given the cold shoulder by Ronaldo back in August, when he gatecrashed Sky Sports’ pitchside coverage of United vs Liverpool ahead of kick-off.

He embraced former team-mate Neville before deliberately avoiding Carragher to hug and speak with Roy Keane, whom he also played with at Old Trafford.
