Gary Neville left his podcast colleagues, including Jamie Carragher and Wayne Rooney, in stitches after revealing what he received for Valentine's Day.

Neville was joined on the latest Stick to Football podcast by regular co-hosts Carragher, Jill Scott and Roy Keane, with Rooney making a guest appearance and discussing a variety of topics.

The talked ranged from his Manchester United playing days and the collapse of his relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson to his willingness to coach rivals Manchester City, but it was Neville who cracked the group up early on in the episode.

The former players were involved in a conversation about what they got for Valentine's Day, triggered by Carragher, who triggered the hilarious line.

Neville began to answer his colleague's question, muttering: 'I got a card, I got a t-shirt, I got some chocolates...' before he was interrupted by the ex-Liverpool man.

Carragher, speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet, said: 'What was the t-shirt?'

'Stone Island,' Neville replies, causing Carragher and Rooney to break out into hysterics, eventually joined by Neville.

Scott then joined the laughs, but Keane was left straight-faced as he tucked into a cake offered by the European Championship winner.

The 49-year-old, who has worked as a Dragon's Den judge alonside fashion guru Emma Grede, has previously been criticised for his fashion sense by fellow Sky colleague Micah Richards.

Richards had accused Neville of 'thinking he's 18' for wearing Stone Island, but it appears the former full back will be sticking to his guns in showing off the fashion brand for the foreseeable future following his latest gift.

Rooney, meanwhile, appearing on the podcast for the first time as a guest, raised eyebrows in expressing his willingness to work for Manchester City despite his alliance with the red side of the city.

'It depends [on whether I’d ever be an assistant],' he said. 'If Pep Guardiola comes in and asks me to be his assistant, you’d walk there.

'But you see what [Mikel] Arteta is doing now and I strongly believe a lot of that is from learning what Guardiola was doing and so it depends on what the situation is.'

The former England captain has taken up a managerial career since retiring from playing, but has struggled at Birmingham and DC United following a decent spell at Derby

'Birmingham City fans didn’t accept me from day one,' he said of his spell with the Blues on the podcast. 'John Eustace had done a good job, to be fair to him, but they made the change and asked me to go in.

'I went in, but I knew straight away that I wasn’t accepted by the fans.'
