GARY NEVILLE was forced to admit he had changed outfit midway through Monday Night Football in a hilarious moment with Sky Sports colleague Jamie Carragher.
The Manchester United legend, 49, kicked off the evening’s coverage wearing a what top with a black shirt-jacket – or “shacket” – over the top.
By the time Leicester and Tottenham had played out a draw and the broadcast moved on to the pundits’ Premier League predictions for the season, Neville had changed into a black jumper.
And Carragher was not going to let that slide after they cut back from a clip from earlier in the show.
The Liverpool icon said: “He’s the first man in Monday Night Football history to change his attire halfway through the show.”
Neville gave a wry smile as he squirmed at Carragher’s comment.

Presenter Dave Jones attempted to support Neville by insisting he simply wanted a “more casual approach”.
But Carragher continued: “What is it with the shacket? What’s the thing there?”
A reluctant Neville then explained: “I had a shacket on and my microphone kept pulling… it was doing my head in.”
Jones then said it was a “professional decision”, before Neville added: “It was, it was.”

And a fourth replied: “Can’t lie. The vibes have been top notch all weekend for a change.”
