I think they are waiting to see what the fall out is. If it's not too loud he keeps his job.

At least we might be able to understand him now.
Undoubtedly at least the 10th person to make that shitty crack in this thread.

Exceptional poll 
Spitty C and Slippy G
I'm not fussed on the guy, he's apologised he shouldn't have done it, he did, was caught on camera is the issue, if not on camera would it have been believed?
He should have the bullet, but won't I guess going to take him a long time to get over this.. I'd give him another go, because he's a better pundit than most, modern day understands the game, better than Souness who was grasping at straws on Sat.
We will see what happens.

Mind you, the "father" is a disgrace himself and could get in trouble to for driving and filming with his phone. What kinda father engages in childish/dangerous behavior with his daughter next to him in the car anyway ?
Apples and oranges, the two incidents in question are not even remotely comparable.
Hope you're not trying to make this a Liverpool vs United debate because that would be totally unwarranted.
Unusual for a Liverpool fan to believe it's still 1977.
Isn't there an international break coming up? plus its FA cup weekend which Sky don't have the rights for anyway, this will die down very fast in my opinion.
Yea I remember the incident, I responded above.
Carragher is only ashamed because he was caught on film, not because he did it in the first place.
Even if he isn't sacked, his reputation is shot.
Can you imagine Brian Clough, Jimmy Armfield or Paddy Crerand doing anything like this?
I found it quite funny watching him on sky news absolutely disgusted with himself. It's like he was watching himself and saying, "now there is a twat". We've been saying that for years.

I think most people agree with that point.
He should be fired really and the driver should be fined and have license revoked or endorsed
Must be traumatic that.
This exactly. Give it a few weeks, gauge reaction if he stays, f he goes. I think they want to keep him otherwise it's a straight sacking.
For me, I've always felt there's a complete overreaction to spitting but realise I'm in the minority. The bigger issue for me is how his response is so completely disproportionate to what's going on.
They are completely comparable.
I'm not discussing it from a Liverpool perspective - simply pointing out the hypocrisy in your statement.
My own opinion is that I wouldn't morally 'disassociate' with either Carragher or Cantona. They're both humans and I don't think such incidents should eclipse their wider character.
Why did he wind the window is the guy had been goading him?
Carragher is talking shit - should be sacked and happy that he didn't encounter someone that would take the law into thier own hands, spitting at someone daughter is a fecking liberty.

Clough? Probably. He was a homophobic, self absorbed plonky.
Huh, thought they’d have Neville and Brendan Rodgers
In terms of physical harm, not much is happening to be honest but spitting is still disgusting and feels very intrusive.
It's a different this case. Media is not all about serving good image like other service. Evidently by Sky hired a bunch of professional bullshitter as pundits. Carragher performance is not keeping the channel ethnic but. It's different from politician, activists, good boy/girl pop star... version of public figure
Sack him!
He should be more responsible. Most contracts say you represent your employer outside normal working hours and it’s a vile act. If someone spat in my face at the office xmas party I’d want them sacked the next day.

Sky cutting short their show tonight seems a little dramatic, mind. I know it's a big production and Carragher will be a big part of the gig, but I'm sure they could have found a way to continue with the usual coverage. If anything, it makes it even more pronounced.
Agree with this. Thinking of all the ex- Liverpool players we have to suffer on Sky and other channels (and there are dozens) Carragher is one of the few with a bit of credibility. What he did was appalling but I don't think he deserves to lose his job.
Liverpool 5-a-side team ('The Saliva Birds'):
Jamie Carragher
Phlegmlyn Hughes
Bruce Flobber, la
Dominic Spatteo
Gerard Droolier

The more I've considered this the more I feel that kicking City out of the League for 10 years is the only real solution.
Is Neville there tonight? He'll struggle to hold his shit together.
They spend most the day filming I think, kind of hard to get someone in on short notice to fill the gap.
He and Dave Jones (presenter) were sat up in the gantry having a chat. Not even in the usual studio.
Exactly, it probably wasn't the first time in his career on and off the pitch anyway.
Apart from the disgusting action, there's a serious risk of disease transference from spitting at someone, which is the bigger deal of the two. I learnt this from a prison show where the convicts stored their bodily fluids (you name it) as stockpiled arsenal to lob at their enemies. Nice!
Yep. They've mentioned before that they sit and 'plan' all day, essentially.
