WHO'S THE GUVNOR? HE WEARS THE HAT.

Watching Premier Legends this morning while striding out some of my daily 10,000 steps on a gym treadmill, my earphones were locked into SkyBox3 as I was watching a documentary on Paul Ince. It was a long time ago that Paul was "the Guv'nor", a name he carried with him to Old Trafford where he played alongside Roy Keane and Eric Cantona and Gary Neville.

Paul Emerson Carlyle Ince, an East Londoner, played for West Ham from 1986, joined United in 1989 until 1995, playing 206 times for the Red Devils. He then bravely included Internazionale (54), survived a trip to play for Liverpool (65), thenMiddlesbrough (93), Wolves (115 times), Swindon and Macclesfield were his last teams.

He turned out for England 53 times from 1993-2000. He was a legend and finished his career managing Swindon, Macclesfield, MK Dons, Blackburn Rovers, Notts County and Blackpool. Nowadays he is a pundit of course.


Gary Neville was at United from 1992 until 2011 playing over 400 matches and 85 for England (from 1995-2007).Gary's career has been very successful, we all know that and he is rarely out of the news. In 2010 his wedding would have been the most Eco friendly, zero-carbon event held in North-west England! His house is designed with the environment in mind. That may have been a reason why he got his Honorary Doctorate from the University of Salford. Bolton Uni annointed him too.
Here is a Podcast about Gary from TalkSport today (it is lengthy but will entertain you):
