Gary Neville has teased he will be joining The Reytons on their big tour next year following the recent release of their second album. The former Manchester United player has appeared in a video alongside the four-piece, who hail from Rotherham in South Yorkshire , where he jokingly auditioned to replace bassist Lee Holland on the road. In the sketch, Gary is asked by the band to showcase his dance moves and his dietary preferences on stage before being tested on his risk taking and speed in terms of how quick he can drink a pint.
