Last week saw Davis and Johnson resign from their posts as Brexit Secretary and Foreign Secretary respectively and Neville somehow managed to shoehorn their names into his discussion of France's World Cup triumph.
While praising Russia for how they'd organised the tournament, Neville suggested that British football fans ought to take a long, hard look at their own politicians.
"There was so much scaremongering before this tournament about how it was going to go and how it was going to be bad," Neville said as the presentation ceremony took place.

"Everybody's got their dream tournament when they're growing up, mine was 1982.
"I think this tournament has been the greatest tournament I've ever seen. It's been unbelievable.
"You see Putin there and obviously he's got this horrible reputation. He might not be a saint.
"But we've got a couple of muppets back home! You've got Boris Johnson and David Davis and those guy who've just resigned. They're absolute muppets, these guys.
"We've come here this month to Moscow and it's been absolutely brilliant. The whole tournament has been amazing. I'm actually sad that the tournament's finished because it's been wonderful."
It goes without saying that Neville's comments went down well online.
