Many now believe that Gary Neville just embarked on a twenty year football career as a stepping stone to getting into football punditry.
Could it turn out that his football punditry will just be a stop-gap before his music career takes off?
He appeared on stage with 'The Charlatans' at the Castlefield Bowl in Manchester last night. Neville part owns the hotel that houses the venue.
It looks on the surface like one of the most Manchester things that has ever happened, but the Charlatans, contrary to much popular belief, come from the English West Midlands.
