Gary Neville has been branded a 'champagne socialist and coward' in a blistering on-air takedown by former Crystal Palace chairman, Simon Jordan.

Neville, 50, sparked fury over the weekend with a video posted on his LinkedIn account where he took aim at 'angry middle-aged white men' following last week's Manchester synagogue attack.

He also criticised Britons fastening St George's and Union Jack flags to lampposts across the country, revealing he took one down 'instantly' after seeing it on one of his building sites.

The £1.1million-a-year Sky Sports pundit, who is not expected to be punished by his employers despite calls for a boycott of the broadcaster, faced a tongue-lashing from Jordan on talkSPORT.
