G-Nev vs West Brom - the fateful game (Photo by Shaun Botterill/Getty Images)[/caption]
As frank as ever, Neville told the crowd: "I was shit at the end."
The former England right-back has previously written about how he knew the end was nigh at half time during that game against the Baggies:
"The end came for me on New Year's Day, 2011 - and it came on a toilet at The Hawthorns. It wasn't the way I'd have chosen to finish, but I knew for certain that this was my last game," he wrote in his autobiography. "After 18 years at Manchester United, after 602 first-team appearances, I was in the middle of playing for my team for the last time. "And I couldn't wait for it to be over. In the dressing room, the manager was barking instructions about how we were going to improve on a dire first-half performance against West Brom. "But I just wanted to get home, to disappear. In the sanctuary of the toilet, my mind was elsewhere."
