Gary and Phils old man had died of a heart attack http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-suspected-heart-attack-flight-Australia.html
Terrible news, particularly as he was on a long-haul flight and it sounds as if the family didn't make it to Sydney in time. RIP Nev.
Diego, any idea whether Neville was a talented sportsman himself? All three of his kids represented their country which is phenomenal really when you think about it.
Didn't he play professional cricket? I remember reading somewhere that both Gary and Phil followed him into cricket and were actually better at cricket than football as young lads. But when they were signed by Utd they realised football was a far superior sport
Did a tremendous amount of work to keep Bury FC afloat and also at Greenmount Cricket Club. Must have been a very proud father having his 3 kids playing international sport RIP
