Manchester United icon David Beckham has hilariously responded to Gary Neville’s ban from Nottingham Forest’s stadium for their final league game against Chelsea. He jokingly said that Neville’s ban from commentary duty at Forest was linked to Manchester United’s win over Forest in 1999.

Nottingham have banned Neville from entering the City Ground as the co-commentator for Sky Sports on Sunday. On Instagram, Beckham responded to a post regarding Neville’s ban, and he wrote (via The Sun):

In February 1999, Manchester United thrashed Nottingham Forest 8-1, and the duo of Beckham and Neville featured in that game. Hence, Beckham’s cheeky dig at Forest’s decision to ban his former teammate from commentary duties.

Neville’s ban was reportedly connected to his criticism of Nottingham Forest’s owner in their 2-2 draw against Leicester City on May 11. The Englishman reportedly labelled the public disagreement between manager Nuno Espírito Santo and club owner Evangelos Marinakis ‘scandalous’.

In response to his ban from Forest by the club’s hierarchy, Neville revealed that he has no other choice but to withdraw. However, he expressed disappointment in the verdict to ban him from offering his commentary services during the season finale.

In a post via his official Instagram handle @gneville2, the Former Manchester United defender wrote (via The Sun):

Neville added:

With the UEFA Champions League positions still up for grabs, the encounter between Chelsea and Nottingham Forest is anticipated to be tough. Despite Neville’s ban, the campaign finale will be played on Sunday, May 25.

He feels France’s triumph in 2018 is his all-time favorite World Cup moment, and reckons Lamine Yamal and Endrick could replicate the rivalry between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Abel always strives to verify information, especially statistics, before penning a word and offers constructive but not defamatory criticisms.
