Gary Neville out of Sky Sports' Premier League finale after 'unprecedented action'
Football pundit Gary Neville is to miss coverage of the Premier League finale on Sunday after being banned by Nottingham Forest, whose owner he recently criticised.
Neville had been due to commentate on Forest's game against Chelsea on Sky Sports, which is being billed as a Champions League qualification shoot-out with both teams aiming for a top five finish. But posting on Instagram, the former Manchester United and England defender said the broadcaster told him on Thursday that Forest "would not give me an accreditation or access to the stadium as a co-commentator".
"I've had no choice but to withdraw from the coverage," he added. "I've dished out my fair share of criticism and praise in the last 14 years of doing this job and have never come close to this unprecedented action." Sky backs Neville's decision Neville said while Forest "have every right to choose who they let into their own stadium.
