A proper hatchet job, even down to the way he was 'lured' to London for an 'informal chat'. He's right to regret sending the text, it was in poor taste, but I can't see how there was no appeals process to follow. Overpaid pen-pushers, frightened of their own shadows and scared to make a proper decision. [Post edited 31 Dec 2019 18:42]

Carragher spat at a child and its ok for him, which was wrong but he paid the price. A complete over reaction from a bunch of scared old fogies. Give the guy a break, we are all human. | ![](/images/avatars/1557.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Exactly,the nobodys who decide these decisions are never seen,but they run all our lives to some point or another. Still,it was a stupid thing to do,especially with the multi media that`s out there these days. Poor bloke,I thought he was a good ref in comparison to some that are out there. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
