The former footballer helped a disabled woman after she was left stranded with no wheelchair.
"I said the actual footballer? "My dad was with my mum and he was in shock." Where did he come from?
Samantha Ward couldn't believe it when she got a phone call from her daughter, who told her: "It's OK, Gary Neville has picked her up"
She has since had to learn how to eat, walk and talk. The next thing my daughter rang and said: “It’s OK, Gary Neville has picked her up”. We had a great day because of him. She can’t stop thinking about it.” However, with limited parking spaces outside the front of the steak restaurant, Ann, her husband Phil, 69, and Samantha’s daughter, Jessica, 19, had to park further away. In a difficult journey over, Ann was visibly struggling to walk. She said that Ann had previously worked for her and it was during the day when she took a turn that it became apparent she had suffered from a brain haemorrhage. “Out of everything to happen, it was just amazing,” she said. “She put his arm around his neck and he picked her up and put her into the passenger seat,” Samantha said. I was nearly ready to say that we should leave. Of Neville, she said: “He was lovely, he was talking to them about Mother’s Day. She said she thought he had driven out of the car park when he saw her mum struggling and pulled over to help.
Manchester United legend Gary Neville appeared as a messiah for a 67-year-old lady and her family on Mother's Day, dropping them off at a restaurant.
The Glazers family have put Manchester United up for sale, with Sheikh Jassim’s Qatari delegation and Sir Jim Ratcliffe emerging as potential buyers (via the Express). As confirmed by Samantha herself, the boys in her family are all Manchester United supporters, making Neville's gesture look even more surreal. He came at the exact time she needed him.” Unfortunately, they were out of luck, and Ann had to embark on an eight-minute-long walk to the restaurant. “My dad said 'oh, hiya Gary' and got in the car and he drove her to the restaurant. He physically picked my mum up, her whole body weight in the passenger seat.
