Gary Neville involved in angry Twitter war of words with Stan Collymore

The pair strongly disagreed over whether Diego Costa should be punished for his recent alleged stamps against Liverpool.

SKY SPORTS ANALYST Gary Neville and fellow pundit Stan Collymore aren’t on friendly terms, it seems.

The pair were involved in an angry Twitter war of words over the controversial subject of Diego Costa and his alleged stamping.

Neville expressed the opinion that it was “impossible to prove” that Costa’s stamps were intentional, prompting Collymore — who believes the Chelsea striker deserves to be heavily punished for his actions — to criticise Neville.

The duo subsequently became involved in a prolonged debate encompasssing Luis Suarez and other controversial topics.

My personal view is that Costa in a process should get off his charge. Impossible to prove he meant it and he doesn't look at the player.

I’m sure someone in Sky will say the three stamps weren’t intentional @GNev2 , and that Costa never dives either…😉

So you fail to dig out diving @GNev2 from what ever seen yet you don’t mind a player leaving two potential leg breakers on a fellow pro?

@StanCollymore it's called "Tolerance" I didn't want Suarez kicked out when many did. Human beings that are in an instinctive environment

I’ll ask any football fan without blue tinted glasses one question. Is it REALLY coincidence that Costa stamped twice on players? REALLY?

I suppose eye gouging isn't intentional either @GNev2 . If it brays like a donkey, it's usually a donkey. pic.twitter.com/Q3t4HhiGbB

So around 90% of football fans think Costa should get a ban, but apparently I’ve been “owned”

Don’t confuse “liked” with “right” children 😉
