Jamie Carragher spits at football fan...

Will end up on a bumper contract somewhere else other than Sky. Talksport 1st up no doubt

Will anyone notice if hes sacked?
Be honest.
One of the list of many with their hands out who most people never bother listening to at HT
They go into the kitchen and faff about until the second half comes on

'that team kicking right to left are trying to score more and concede fewer goals than those kicking right to left'
There, thats the analysis covered copyright me.
Nothing else needs saying, just show the game and reduce the fees.

kenny's spot on. It's a filthy habit.

Minute's silence next home game to remembers JC's career?

left to right

Suspended by Sky who seem to have a habit of employing filth like JC.

Totally unacceptable behaviour.  In front of a child too. He should be ashamed of himself.

At the very least he should do something for the family and for charity or the community.

If he'd done it to my family, he'd be answering to a Magistrates Court.

Should have been water off a duck's back for a man of his age and experience.

He should have either ignored it or said something like, "You deserved it today. Well done."

It was a vile and disgusting thing to do spitting at a 14-year-old girl, just watched the video, was a few seconds of madness. But the driver of the car (her father) was driving and using a mobile phone and seemed to be leaning over the girl, so Carragher did not aim a mouthful of gob deliberately at the girl, but lost his temper at her dad who was goading him and looking for trouble. That is how it seems on the video, and now Carragher is being treated like he’s the biggest criminal ever. Totally wrong, yes, but both men were acting like idiots ! And what if the father had crashed and injured his daughter.

She'd have got more than a bit of spit on her if her father had run into the car in front, ridiculous behaviour and he should be prosecuted, the evidence is irrefutable.

If the driver is going to be prosecuted then so should Carragher for the same offence as well as for the spitting offence.

JC fooked up, he of all people should know that a camera is nearly always rolling. At least he's confronted the issue instead of hiding away like some do, so a bit of credit there.

I think he's a very good pundit, especially when he's on with Neville. I'm 50/50 as to whether he'll lose his job. As someone else said, he'll just walk into another one if he is sacked.

I think if someone like me had done that I'd be starting my sentence today

The fact that the girl's father was recording the whole thing is enough proof that he was looking for a reaction !

'Two wrong's don't make a right young man'
Oh happy days

Who, other than a total idiot, would film himself breaking the law?

I've only just watched the video. It was mildest case of barracking I've ever seen (unless there was more earlier that we didn't see). JC went from a wave to a spit in a few seconds.

A manchester utd fan ^^    sorry sorry sorry

that was to saddo sorry

Obviously it is delayed post traumatic stress disorder after Thierry Henri touched his leg.
A week in rehab and back on the gravy train.

I don't like people being defined by one moment of madness, unless serious harm is done. Ron Atkinson an example. Apologise, move on.

Spitting is considered lowest of the low but given the choice between saliva on my face and a broken nose I'd take the latter.

What ever way you want to dress this up, this was a very spiteful assault on a young child under the most mildest of provocation from the father.
He can count himself lucky the father wasn't someone who confronted his actions and knocked the beejaysus out of him which in my book would have been fully deserved. He should be facing a criminal charge of common assault and have his day in court.

Surprisingly it looks like he's kept his job. Sky have suspended him, when if they were going to sack him they would have already done so, imo. A few weeks TV ban to show that they 'don't tolerate this sort of behaviour' - when in fact they are just doing exactly that and slip him gently back into MMF for a nice low key Stoke v Leicester or something like that.

I just don't want that awful voice droning on and on.

Over a third of the UK police forces use spit mask for suspects when required to protect themselves. If he had spat in a policeman's face he would have already been charged, absolutely no question about that whatsoever.

ban FOR BOTH  ,disgusting By Carragher

ban FOR BOTH  ,disgusting By Carragher

Spitting at a girl i hope the police get involved, getting a bit bored with sky if they keep him on i'm cancelling.

He's been told to stay away from Stoke tonight. So presumably his punishment starts tomorrow.

Forgetting the spittingfor a mo, did  Carragher cut across the other vehicle & stop as though he was looking for a confrontation ?
Only seen it once so maybe I misread that, driver was hardly goading him nothing more than banter, just goes to show the hatred between the two teams he must still  hate Man Utd  as much as Neville  probably still hates Liverpool even though they have  both retired

Wonder what the Daily mirror paid for this Video? .. Guessing 30-50k

if we,re having trial by media,what happens to noble for what people on here would call assault

those demanding Carragher be sacked will be devastated next week when Jamie Redknapp is covering his absence

I just don't want that awful voice droning on and on.

My first thought moisok. He should without doubt be sacked though.

Roy Keane finished a fellow players career with a vicious, deliberate and premeditated tackle/ assault
He is employed in the tv studios, and as a manager of an international football team the republic of Ireland
Whats going on?

FM

What happened between Carragher and the guy in the car is between them, no one else
The footage shouldn't be shown unless as evidence in court

Should it go to court? of course not

Of course it should go to court! Anything to keep Telford off our front, middle and back pages...

it's disappeared from the hidden pages of the on line guardian after only 12 hours

but then they have newham   and also stories about khan's utterances to dwell on and promote the diaspora

Only a prick like moisok could have a dig about a certain religion on a thread about a football pundit sitting

That should have said spitting

makes a change from spitroasting.

He Realises he has Done his Brains Trying to Get out of it only a lump of Shyte would even think of Spitting at the Girl ..

Already on the TV grovelling - gotta go !

Yes Get rid of it ...

Must be kicking himself. He knows he's unemployable now.
BTW haven't read the full thread and apologises if already mentioned but what about the fathers response?
Most fathers I think would have taken responded angrily but he seemed to almost purr. Think he heard the tills ringing?

Yes was Deffo a CHE, CHING  !! MOMENT !!!

ffs not making excuses for the plank but lets get this right

he didn't spit at the girl,his spit hit the girl, there is a difference imo,the way its reported

guy that was taking the video should be charged for using his mobile..  carragher should be charged as well,,  no seat belt

'It is understood the victim's father will not be prosecuted and will instead be given “advice” by Greater Manchester officers about the illegal practice'


Film someone whilst driving and sell it, no problem. Very worrying at a time they are rightly ramping up penalties for others.

Carragher nearly in Tears in Interview About what this will do to his Family , Yes you have done your Brains Jamie

If the young girl had anything about her she should come out and say look, I,m ok, I,ll survive and that she doesnt  think the man should lose his job
But I suppose thats too much to expect of todays younger generation

As for the father he should be ashamed to have this all over the news. Parents today really are a disgrace.

But if the young girl was to come out and say that, then she would be worthy of admiration, and would put her father and many on here to shame

thats a disgrace he was breaking the law,,  so anyone [ not making a phone call]  but making a video while driving gets off scott free,,

You lose all credibility with such stupid statements.

Yep, that was a stupid statement..^^

Action needs to be taken against the camera man (points and Fine) He's obv made money from this. Carragher needs a new job.

Real men don't spit like a hissing snake or wild animal, they ignore or ask the driver to pull over to sort it out. What kind of cretinous cockroach gobs through the window of a moving car with a kid in the passenger seat after hearing a score taunted? The people who defend him probably spend their time spitting at people themselves so no big deal. I'd have more sympathy if he punched someone in a pub or wherever but what he did wasn't just vile, it shows him to be the subhuman piece of filth he is. On a personal level I will be glad to see the back of him, his whining scouse voice and lack of vocabulary grates and don't think he brings anything to the bloated money grabbing corporation of sky anyway other than being a fcking irritant   .

The usual insults instead of debate from the bitter progressives.

Only a prick like moisok could have a dig about a certain religion on a thread about a footbal pundit sitting

but then again - it does keep them off the front page while people get worked up about some soccerball incident - much more important than the telford 1000

Of course spitting isn't nice, but its commonplace in Britain today, mainly among the leftists and riff raff who seem to think its acceptable behaviour
If we recall the tory party conference delegates in Manchester, again, were spat at by demonstrators
delegates and activists and journalists faced an onslaught of phlegm as they arrived
four journalists, including Michael crick were spat on and a campaigner for housing charity shelter found herself being called a ***t

The policy of spitting was thought to be ok by those on the left and is a form of abuse uniquely of the left in Britain
Perhaps these labour supporters should  should share wolfs description as vile inhuman pieces of filth,
And each of them should lose their jobs, if they are employed
I don't know

Now its very simple, the spitters vote for Corbyn, that's the sort of person that Corbyn attracts, twiiter was full of leftists defending the spitting, that's ok

I thought that the driver must have said something absolutely vile for jamie to react like that, but I  have just watched the clip with the sound on.  Unless it has been altered the guy driving does not give any abuse really, he notices him and shouts hello and jamie responds by waving and then the driver  just taunts 2 1  2  1 and jamie winds down his window and spits .

And then of course the magic moment when his daughter says there is spit on me.  The driver was not horrified or outraged or angry, in fact he was almost laughing and  saying ' jamie carragher has just spat at my daughter' - you could hear the  money tills ringing in his head.

Of course this is britains younger generation also, and not so young. But almost certainly leftists the sort that crystalhunt seems to think should hear only sweet birdsong and not the harsh truth, well too bad

now here is the simple fact. The 14 year old girl should say that nothing further should happen, that it should not have been in the press in the first place and is an incident between her father and Carragher and no one else
That is the only way that this will not impact negatively on her , but quite the reverse
It would be great credit to her
No other course of events , such as carragher losing his job, and the impact on his wife and children will be good for her in her own good and calm and happy thoughts ahead

It is always better to be spat upon, and to walk away
That is what her father should be teaching her

I don't know jamie carragher very well as a pundit as I fast forward to the action, but it was vile what he did but I don't think he should lose his job over it.

One of my favourite sayings from the bible, and no I don't believe in 'God' -'let him who is without sin cast the first stone at her'

Or are all you lot of chit chatters without sin

we have to be very careful in the modern world, things ,incidents become amplified by social media, its on every tv screen and paper
Now what happens if something goes wrong, for what was certainly not a nice thing, but if carragher loses his job, if there are problems for his wife and children at school because of the incident being everywhere and not a fairly nasty thing that could have been forgotten about and not really harmed anyone
And then something goes wrong,  how does that help any of the people involved

Jamie Caragher is in a very privileged position in life with a super job. A pundit job with a queue a mile long for. You is what you is, No crying sad face apology can change that. I Don't want to see him on my tv again.

Well there are many people I would prefer not to see on my tv again,
Such as Corbyn, so what?
I despise Corbyn much more than carragher , that's ok I can live with it

Corbyn? who does he play for? what channel does he commentate on? who has he gobbed at? WTF?

Will you be happy to see Roy Keane on your tv again, or as manager of an international football team , I would prefer not to
Not after he ended a players career in cold blood
But I can live with it

Roy Keane, now youre making sense. He's another who is what he is... Doubt he'd get Caraghers job (i'd hope not)

he doesn't need another job, he is in a job, he,s in the tv studios most weeks .
All is forgiven and forgotten, of course not by the player whose career he ended

now then again we have Cantona, what are your views on him, do you mind him being on your tv screen,

I believe a rival supporter made him angry also

very privileged person in life, Cantona, do you want him off your tv also?

I don't know what the lfc in lfc1971 stands for but some of the moronic posts by him trying to defend the indefensible and deflection tactics by bringing other players into it suggests one thing.

Carragher did a vile thing for no good reason and deserves to be sacked immediately.

I believe, as do many others on here, that lfc1971 is mentally ill.

If you told him tomorrow was Wednesday he'd spend the next hour posting dozens of messages on why you're wrong.

And who could argue with that.

Seems the main issue here is Carragher but a guy, with his young daughter in the car, is driving, at speed, whilst also directing a camera at him. This guy needs to be prosecuted without question. Carragher is unbelievable naïve... and vile. Both not concentrating on the road, both putting lives in danger; for me it's a no brainer. Prosecute and show that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated on our roads... JC or not!

Leftists do all the spitting now?
Seriously?
An utterly ridiculous thing to type.
But then so much of the massive output is just that, ridiculous.

I agree with Aspro.

Yes, the bloke was seemingly drive without due care and attention.

The thing that occurs to me is that spitting is something which wouldn't occur to me, however angry I got. I might have a road rage chase, swear, shout, get out of the car.... but the spitting thing wouldn't register on my radar.

They should both be punished imo.

Same here Study (hope you're well mate), I don't believe I've ever spat at anyone (or even wanted to) but I have been spat at, which resulted in a fight (hard not to really), but it wasn't putting other lives in danger.

It happened to me at school too I guess I was 13 or 14 (as you know mate - rough area, rough school). I was just walking along a corridor, minding my own business and an older boy 15 or 16 - A noted hard nut, walking towards me, came up to me and just flobbed in my face, then walked off. Its one of those where I wish I could go back in time and revisit and fix something that happened in the past.

I'm bearing up under pressure, Aspro, thanks for asking. How are you?

Took early retirement in September Study; pension kicked in (55) so I thought why not? I'll still do something to keep me active but full time is no longer on the agenda so in truth, all is currently good... mustn't grumble.

Good for you!
I didn't have the foresight to take out a pension, let alone cash one in!

Circumstances haven't enabled any form of retirement and I'm working harder than ever.

Absolute Shyte LFC the Bloke is a Big Lunk Head thick , no one in his position would have done what he Did ,I would imagine
there is a bit of History about him that has been swept away over the Years, Fck him off out of it ....

think both will end up in court............carragher a millionaire so the fine will not be an hardship and the man utd fan can pay out of the money he had for selling the footage

Why are you bringing politics into the argument defending your boyhood hero? The guys is a spitting scumbag, what your rants on leftwing politics have to do with a knobhead like carragher gobbing at someone in a moving car Ive no idea.. stop defending the indefensible.

I suspect if your poster child Carragher had been spat on you wouldn't agree, what a fcking stupid comment. If Carragher cut 10 heads off using them as upturned flowerpots you would defend him... looking at your username I wonder why

I,m too old to worry about football teams or anything like that

I am not talking about Carragher its got nothing to do with him, its more the situation and the three people involved, they could be anyone

that shut you up didn't it ?

but yes its true

Talksport will take him.

They've already got a horse trainer convicted of animal cruelty AND done for speeding on the motorway and banned for a year. Broke the ban and was put in jail.

Worse then spitting.

Jamie Carragher will face no police charges over the spitting incident that saw him suspended from his job as a Sky football pundit for the rest of the season.

Ex-Liverpool and England defender Carragher was filmed spitting from his car at another vehicle after Saturday's Manchester United v Liverpool match.

He has apologised for the incident.

Police say the driver who filmed Carragher spitting at him will attend a driving improvement course.
