Neville rejects United testimonial offer

MANCHESTER UNITED defender Gary Neville has taken the unprecedented step of rejecting a testimonial to mark his 10 years at the club.

The 27-year-old is a month short of spending a decade in the Old Trafford first team picture, but after consultation with his family has decided any game to mark the occasion will take place at the end of his career.

Neville has not even decided yet whether that will happen, but if it does, has already pledged to use much of the money to build a facility for the club’s supporters to use on matchdays.
