After alleged abuse of two Man Utd players in the derby on Saturday, the former Red Devil said divisive rhetoric on immigration stoked the fires
Gary Neville has laid some blame at the feet of UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson for a rise in racial incidents, not just at football grounds but in British society at large.
Neville was speaking in reference to an incident at the Manchester derby where cameras caught a fan apparently making racist gestures towards Fred and Jesse Lingard.
The Brazilian midfielder was also seemingly the target of objects thrown from the stands at the Etihad Stadium, including cigarette lighters and a plastic bottle.
