Gary Neville had a pint thrown at him by Manchester City fans before their Premier League clash with Brighton at the Amex Stadium on the final day of the season.
The Manchester United favourite was at the ground to cover the match for Sky Sports and had to make his way through a group of supporters to get to the stadium.
Neville then received a torrent of verbal abuse from fans and had to duck as a pint was launched at his head.
The incident was caught on video by one City fan and posted to Snapchat with the caption ‘Red c***’.
Some City fans were more diplomatic and appeared to apologise on behalf of the others.
Showing restraint, the 44-year-old quickly left the area and managed to get up some stairs before giving the fans a thumbs up when he neared the top.
