Neville urges Everton fans not to jeer Man City defender Lescott

Everton skipper Phil Neville has urged fans not to jeer Manchester City defender Joleon Lescott tomorrow.

Lescott signed for Manchester City for £22m in 2009 but has yet to feature in a City shirt at his old ground.

He was criticised by Toffees boss David Moyes for leaving.

But Everton skipper Neville claims it would be wrong to boo Lescott.

Neville said: "I want the Everton fans to go easy on Joleon. He played for the club in a magical era and helped us to an FA Cup Final."
