A message from a fan account called the Arsenal Therapy Show, which was originally posted earlier in the year, was getting renewed traction on X on Monday. ‘Like this tweet if you would sign a petition to have @GNev2 (Gary Neville) banned from commentating on Arsenal games,’ it said.
By late afternoon on Monday, more than 25,000 people had done exactly that. Others suggested Neville and his Sky Sports colleague Jamie Carragher should both be prevented from entering the Emirates for future games. I don’t know if the petition has materialised yet but it wouldn’t surprise me if it did.
