Just saw the carragher video now. What an absolute idiot. Disgusting. Theres no comeback from spitting at a person. What was he thinking ?! Crazy scumbag behaviour. I dont think theres any way back from this. He should and probably will be sacked from sky and can have no complaints. It really is the lowest of the low spitting at someone .

Whenever a spitting story comes out everyone seems to go with it being the lowest of the lows.

It was a disgusting, deplorable act. No questions there, why he would even do so is what annoys me the most. But lowest of the low? Surely if he had of filled a glass up with his own urine and tossed it into a crowd of supporters that would be a bit lower.

Again, it was a disgraceful act, but in the UK and Ireland, particularly, there seems to be an obsession with the act of spitting and how it is simply the worst thing you could ever do to someone, an act that you can never come back from. Personally think some people are going over the top with their opinions that there is no way back for him. People have come back from similar and from worse within the sport. Foolish, idiotic and barbaric but I don't agree with all the calls for his head.

Stupid mistake. But I wouldn’t apologise on Sky, of all places. I’d learn from it and move on.

I guess I don't really... care a lot about this.

Considering they are paying him something like a £1m a year that's the first place he would.

I never got this POV either - Not condoning it but you could certainly go a lot lower

Somebody should review it Dunphy Italia ’90 style.

Carragher, is a disgrace. I'm a huge fan of his. But still. He may fall on his sword. If someone had spat on my daughter I'd see crimson red. It's just madness total madness.

But would you put your daughter in danger like the father did by recording someone else while driving?

There could have been a very serious car accident as a result of this.

Can they bought be charged for traffic offences? Using mobile/spitting at moving traffic? Any legal eagles here?

Would you have being doing what the guy with the daughter in this instance was? He was goading him in the hopes of getting a video of carragher doing something that he could sell to the media or make him 'famous' on twitter. He was hoping for carragher to tell him to eff off or give him the finger or something.

Carragher was stupid for 2 reasons. The first is because it is a disgusting way to react, and totally OTT. the second is that spitting out of a moving car window is likely to result in most of it being blown back in your own window anyhow. Sky are trying to manage the situation with a staged apology and a suspension and seeing if it ultimately dies down.

As said above, while spitting at someone is vile and disgusting, I'd rather someone spat at me than punched me in the face or tried to break my leg with a tackle. In football terms, the only thing as overblown as the reactions to this is the reaction to someone waving an imaginary card at the ref, whereas if they went up and remonstrated with the ref, trying to get someone booked, which happens every game, nothing is said. The difference is that it is usually the foreigners that don't speak English well enough to tell the ref to book him that wave the imaginary card, and the English speaking ones say it directly to the ref.

I'd be a lot more offended if he threw his shoe at me and if I was an Arab.

Long term yes I'd say he'll play centrally. He is a CB but he is also a defender that has played out wide, I was just saying TAA hasn't apart from this season and is a Midfield/Wide player, afaik anyway that is.

I think sticking Gomez beside VDD until end of season could save ye a packet and leave ye just needing a RB.

Gomez has been at fault for a number of goals this year as well getting caught at the back post

I knew Richard Keys just couldn't help himself so had to tweet about the Carragher incident lol

I didn't see it as old hairy hands has blocked me, but I'm guessing it went something like this:

"Here's an early call: Carra's saliva to finish above Everton this season."

Or something. He's a bad one Keys.

Too morose in here the past few days so here's Naby doing some fun stuff with a ball.

I've not read the last X pages, anything happening that is not Carra related?

Lovren could be in serious ****. Hes being investigated for giving false testimony in some court case in Croatia. Modric also in trouble. Details are sketchy at the minute

That's been rumbling on for an age. Hopefully he is jailed so we don't have to watch him defend....

Salah's current notional value is now £144m, bit on the low side. If RM or PSG came for him you'd want 200m minimum!

and the whoscored Championship team of the week with two Liverpool players



Marko Grujic seems to be getting the seal of approval from Tony Pulis, he's playing as a No 6 for them so it's taken a few games to start to acclimatise to that deeper role.

marklazarcovic

two grown men acting like kids in a fckin playground is worldwide news ffs, your mans daughter was morto at what he was at, utd and toffee fans will not let it die down quietly for certain, if your man has any skeletons they better be well hid too coz to be sure people will be looking at him now too. idiots.

It's all centered around a corruption trial of Zdravko Mamić and he sounds like a real scumbag.

Wasn't Lovren and his family drugged in Croatia during the summer?

I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that both himself and Modric had been threatened.

Mamic was the target of an assassination attempt during the summer as well. I dunno have they caught them yet, but usually people who are victims of assassination attempts aren't sound lads unless they're elected officials or journalists investigating in organised crime.

Davor Suker, former international and head of the Croatian FA is wrapped up in in too. It sounds like a right mess.

Too many examples of it. Sent a weird tweet to a Bt Sport presenter few weeks ago.
Threw a bottle back at Arsenal fans years back too.

No doubt it'll come out in the papers next week that this was preying on his mind during the first half on Saturday.

Joe Gomez the only other Liverpool player on the list is worth £50m according to that

"I put it to you, Mr Lovren, that you are an international standard centre-back?"

"Oh yeah, absolutely."

Hi very rare poster here. As a massive Liverpool fan since 1986, I just wanted to express my disappointment at Carras behaviour. Spitting is absolutely disgusting, I don't even understand why he rolled the window down in the first place.

He should be sacked from Sky and for me, it completely tarnishes his time at Liverpool. You bloody idiot Carra

Get a grip.

It was just stupidity and road rage. Some people losing the run of themselves and getting awful upset all together.

Agree with your first paragraph sentiment but I don't get your last point.

What he did on Saturday has nothing to with Liverpool or his career with Liverpool.

Yes.

We've to be right some year if we keep saying it.

Bloody hell that's a nice welcome to the thread.

People are free to post as often or as infrequent as they like. Although I'd guess your time here is limited.

This place is so bleak of late. I feel I’m posting out of sympathy at this point. It’s like visiting a terminally ill neighbor or something.

Meh, one bad result really. Anyone getting down over Carra's lunacy needs to have a word with themselves. Now, if we don't get 3 points at home to Watford, that's a cause for the blues.

Nah. It’s not even results it's the soccer forum as a whole. It’s so bloody sterile. It’s colour by numbers - don’t go outside the lines. It’s so weird. Nothing here feels natural anymore...I dunno. Maybe it’s just run it’s course.

I read this a lot since last night. And as someone who once got sucker punched out of the blue on a football pitch, believe me I'd much prefer to be spat at that punched in the face again. As horrible as it is.

Obviously getting sucker punched out of the blue is fairly shocking, because you're not expecting it and theres no reason why you should be a victim. But in the context of the situation, what carragher did is the absolute lowest thing he could have reasonably done. People would be more forgiving if he told him to f*ck off, or gave him the fingers or whatever...but to go straight to full on spitting on someone is crazy. I cant believe that he bypassed all his other options, driving on, rolling the windows up, shouting back abuse or whatever ...and went straight to being a scumbag.
