I've been a massive fan of Neville Southall since i was about 8 when i started supporting Everton, when i was about 10 years old i started to write to players asking for their autographs. In my letters i would write a bit about myself like where i was from, who i supported and what team i played for myself etc. I got a few photo's with autographs sent back from Gary Linekar, Ian Rush, Mark Hughes and a few others. A couple of weeks went by and i got a letter through the post and it was from Neville Southall, inside was a autographed picture and a handwritten A5 letter thanking me for writing and responding to my questions and encouraging me on playing football. It blew mind at 10yrs and still blows my mind at 47 that someone like him would take that much time and effort to respond to a kid. In my eyes this man is an absolute LEGEND and a true footballer. Thanks Neville.
I'm an Evertonian and Southall for a period in the 80's was certainly the best keeper in the world.Doesn't get the recognition he deserved because he was Welsh and didn't play for one of the so called glamour clubs.
HERE IS A HISTORY LESSON FOR YOU GET YOU FACTS RIGHT PAL B4 POSTING UTTER SHITE WE WHERE ONE OF 2 CLUBS THAT WHERE THE TOP TEAMS IN THE 80'S IT WAS EVERTON AND LIVERPOOL THAT WON THE LEAGUE TITLES SEVEN YEARS THE LEAGUE TITLE WAS ON MERSEYSIDE CHELSEA LAST WON THE LEAGUE 54/55 AND RELAGATED TWICE ARSENAL DIDN'T UNTIL 88/89 THERE LAST BEING THE DOUBLE 71/72 WON FA CUP 78/79 RELAGATED NEVER MANURE WON THE FA CUP 85 B4 THAT LAST LEAGUE TITLE 67/68.RELAGATED VILLA WON LEAGUE80/81 THE EUROPEAN CUP 81/82.

He did play for the so called glamour club.... EVERTON... and he wasn't underated... Everton invented football and have been at the top longer than anyone...
My idol growing up. His double save in the 95’ FA cup final will always be one of my favourite moments of Big Nev. Had the pleasure of meeting him on a few occasions. Great Pod lads, can’t believe you have less than 1k subs
Southall is 100% correct in his analysis of modern day keepers …. There NOT keepers anymore there centre half’s that can’t dive or catch a ball …. I’d have southalls name on any team 1st anywhere in the world …. He was one of the best… have a look at Onana after listening to this & there’s an example of someone who can’t dive /catch a ball along with unbelievable bad positioning sense ….
@@RGPICSwell stick the kettle on and put your feet up as we got loads of Nev content, there is episode 2, shorts and mini segments from the episodes. Fill your boots 🤣
The Greatest Everton player bar none for me his Stats and Medal Hall will show that.. it’s Criminal he never made a International Tournament along with a Few good others in the Welsh set up at that Time🤝👍💙
I'm not a Everton fan but Nev for me was and still is the best goalkeeper i have ever seen & i grew up watching that Everton side I agree with Sheedy but i though Inchy (Adrian Heath) was quality

There's just been a Euros, and probably 90% of the games we're awful and boring. Turkey and Austria was the best game because they just went fir it. Top-level football is boring. these days
Nev was a world class goalie back in the day, but he's a dinosaur when it comes to the modern game. The modern game is quicker and more athletic than when he played, they were out on the piss all the time. Sports science plays a massive part in the modern game and squad rotation is a necessity
Not sure about the whole time Nev played but he has been clear about being tee total. A couple well known interviews/moments where he didn't celebrate and just 'went home' 😂
I well remember Pat Rice taking a free kick from near the halfway line for Watford during their first ever First Division game and Neville “saving” it and stepping back with the ball over his own goal line. 😂. He’s let himself go a bit since his playing days but at least the silly moustache has gone.
He said, I'd like to see how much training footballers do compared to darts and Snooker players, is he serious? Like comparing an ultra runner to a dominoes player
Sorry Nev,. Qatar have their values. Its not on us to force our values on others. Thats whats lead to accusations around colonialism. We think we have it right but we dont which is why the western world is nastier and in a massive mess.
