    The post in question highlighted the types of tit variety of birds found in Britain. There's the bearded tit, the blue tit, the crested tit… and the colossal tit, with a picture of Neville's face next to that one.

    Neville's former Manchester United team-mate Paul Scholes enjoyed the post – he reacted by commenting with three crying-with-laughter emojis. Jamie Carragher an ex-Newcastle United goalkeeper Shay Given were similarly tickled, both adding the same reaction as Scholes in the comments section.
