Gary Neville 0:00
Just before we get started, I just wanted to say a big thank you to our partner, Skybet, and please don't forget to subscribe if you like. I hope you enjoy this episode. Here he is. Come in, Crouchy.
Unknown 0:13
Good to see you again. How are you? Where is he sat, by the way? Right at the end.
Gary Neville 0:17
He's in the king's chair.
Unknown 0:18
You're in the chair, man. How are we going?
Peter Crouch 0:22
Yeah, we're good, we're good.
Gary Neville 0:26
It's five o'clock. Oh, yeah, late lunch. A boozy one?
Peter Crouch 0:30
I was getting that one, yeah. I'll lift them to it.
Gary Neville 0:34
Crouchy, the team have been... They reckon you deleted a tweet last night, which was... Oh, I did, yeah.
Peter Crouch 0:41
I did. I did. I've got loads of f***ing grief. I wanted to go, like, the lads did... Do you know what I mean? Let's be proud of them. And you just got battered. What the f*** do you know and all that?
I was like...
Gary Neville 0:53
I'm going to read your tweet out to Roy and Ian. I think that's funny. But do you know something? It's sad that you've put something that's quite supportive.
Peter Crouch 1:01
So I'm trying to go positive, right? And then, yeah, and then obviously everyone's piled on. But I'm not going to go into, you know, what I think about the manager and the tactics and this and that. I've been out there the whole time and I've had the best time. I've had such a good time out here. Yeah, yeah. And every England game I've like, yeah, there's been some good and bad, but I've loved being a part of it. I got to go into the England camp.
Gary Neville 1:22
Yeah. But also you've lived, you've been there and been knocked out of tournaments as well. So you tried to be nice on Twitter.
Peter Crouch 1:27
I tried to be nice and I got loads and I thought, I don't want to see that anyway. Apart from Kieran and Barry.
Ian Wright 1:33
Who's there all night, just waiting.
Unknown 1:40
We'll have him on that tomorrow. He's fucking deleted it. He's deleted it. That's even better.
Gary Neville 1:45
Hey, but Crouchy, it's one of them, isn't it? How long did you leave it up for?
Peter Crouch 1:49
Ages. I went back to it and then went off. I'm getting loads here. No one will see it.
Gary Neville 1:57
Oh, that's brilliant. When I saw that, I said, nah, you wouldn't have deleted that. It's quite a nice tweet.
Peter Crouch 2:01
Yeah, there's nothing bad about it at all. There's nothing bad about it, but there's a lot of animosity out there.
Gary Neville 2:08
It's never good when you get more comments than likes. I just thought, what am I even achieving with it? I know, but it's a sad reality, that, of where X has got to in particular. I mean, look, if we just read that out, gutted we're out, but we're watching Argentinos experience, Messi's just a genius and a hard bastard as well, like the rest of them. I'm proud of our lads and what they've achieved at the World Cup. Some real heroes emerged. It was a pleasure to be here for it. How can you get absolutely blitzed for that? You know what I mean? You've said, look, we're gutted. Proud of the lads that played well. Some of the heroes have emerged. You know, Jude, Jed Spence, maybe a couple of the other lads.
Peter Crouch 2:52
And then the whack comes. It was more so like, you know, you've missed out a fucking load of stuff there. Do you know what I mean? It's a tweet. It's not a comprehensive review of the match. You're not a journalist. That's the right fucking essay. I'm not dissecting the game. I'm just saying that I had some great moments out there and players deserved some credit. I didn't say anything about the manager because I didn't want to criticise him or praise him. Oh, well. Yeah.
Unknown 3:26
Roy.
Peter Crouch 3:26
Roy.
Unknown 3:26
Oh, looking smart. How are you, mate?
Peter Crouch 3:31
Yeah, good to see you, mate. Yeah, yeah, good to see you.
Ian Wright 3:33
Sorry, my hip.
Peter Crouch 3:35
Oh, yeah. I was going to come play. I was. I was trying to look for it. Hi. You playing with the Tork Sport boys and stuff?
Ian Wright 3:43
No, I wasn't. It was just ITV, like, the staff in the background.
Gary Neville 3:45
I heard you lost, Roy. 5-4.
Ian Wright 3:48
Do you know what? We weren't really caught on the score. How are you?
Unknown 3:55
How are you, mate? As things, you all right? Great to see you, mate. Yeah, really good, really good.
Ian Wright 4:00
You're talking about this game, no?
Peter Crouch 4:03
So did you play right as well? No, at the start of the game.
Ian Wright 4:05
Did you play today? Yeah.
Gary Neville 4:06
I got asked yesterday, Roy.
Ian Wright 4:08
Do you know what? I wasn't sure. I didn't want to be chasing you. I just thought, come on.
