Them waters are cursed, dammit

If celebrity pool parties feature highly in your social calendar, you should place Gary Neville’s name right under Barrymore’s on the ‘do not attend’ list.

Perhaps taking inspiration from the workmen who buried a Red Sox jersey under the new Yankees stadium recently, cheeky Scouse builders claim to have built a shrine to Liverpool right under the swimming pool in Gary Neville’s new home near Bolton. Bad karma-inducing labourer Brian Greer, who obviously isn’t looking to work with the Nevilles again, said:

“We went to Neville-Neville Land to tile his swimming pool.

“While we were there we created a Scouse time capsule under the pool and tiled over the top of it. When his house is dug up in the future, archaeologists will see what a passion he had for the Red men.”

The crack team of Photoshoppers at The Sun have been working day and night to produce an image of what some things pertaining to Liverpool buried under a pool might look like, the fruit of which is displayed above. Frankly, if his taste is anything like his brother’s (whose grotesquely-appointed mansion may be seen here), then visitors will be lucky to make it as far as the pool without succumbing to garish-furnishings-induced seizures.
