Football punditry is big business in the Premier League, and many former players can be found with a mic in hand before, during, and after the match.
Former players that can actually add value, mind you, unlike Naas ‘On the Udder Hand’ Botha and some of the in-studio dross we are subjected to here in South Africa.
Arch-rivals and Sky Sports presenters Jamie Carragher and Phil Neville are amongst the highest profile former players, and they caught some stick for an odd segment that occurred earlier this month.
Fellow Sky Sports presenter Kelly Cates was left high and dry after the two strode off whilst answering her question, which didn’t sit well with many viewers.
Here’s that clip:
Kelly was quick to point out that it wasn’t really a snub, though:
Ralph Hasenhüttl is the current Southampton manager, by the way.
Fast forward to the build-up to last night’s Manchester Derby, and Cates took her chance for revenge.

Well played, everyone.
In case you missed the derby, here are the highlights (which may get yanked off YouTube at some point):
Unless Manchester City slip up, there’s a good chance that Liverpool will finish second in the league with a single defeat all season.
As Pep Guardiola stated, both sides deserve the title, but that’s not how things work.
Non-Manchester United supporters, get set for a full day or two of Grade A whinging from your Red Devils workmates.
