The ETH thread.
It's quite funny that people are criticising Carragher when there's a poster on this page who is cheating on his wife.
You don't think I know? Oh I know

The 5-7 days when @horsechoker didn't post and we thought he either got a job, got a gf or died.
Aren’t jokes supposed to be, you know, funny? The soft lad Jamie was the only person here who started laughing at his own “joke”. Nobody, with a brainless, found this remotely funny.
I know Jamie is from Liverpool, he has been a Liverpool fan since he decided to stop supporting Everton and Liverpool fans in general have a different perception on reality, to put it a bit more bluntly - they aren’t very bright.
But this does not excuse making this sort of comment about a work colleague, his bosses need to take action.
Who's lynching? People are criticizing it. Hardly anyone is calling for him to be sacked.
I did die
There's been some social media rumours based on body language during shows but no, nothing has been confirmed.
Surely it's up the person on the receiving end to determine if its appropriate banter or crossing the line, not the person saying it?
Worth saying I don't think CBS were too happy with it... On the "best bits" they cut right before it... so yeah.
I don't imagine he'll get fired, probably just asked to apologise and tone it down. Or actually they'll make a joke at his expense about it tonight.

This. He proved it years ago when he was taunted by a United fan and ended up spitting on a teenager. He's lucky Neville takes it quite easy on him most of the time.
If this was just only time I would understand. But they are doing it all the time. Joking around. This isn't case of bullying. It was ment as joke. Some people think it is poor choice of joke. And some don't care. It is okey to think both.
I don't think it is funny either. But I don't think it should be looked at like worst thing people ever heard.
You are right. But they have been doing it through their show. Joking.
But what if Jamie says that it isn't ok? Can we think about the rich man for a second here?
He's a completely different person around Keane. He's not as brash and turns into a mouse.
She handled it quite well but what way to wreck a relationship. If it's a crap gag, the damage is done and, if it's true, why on earth would you say it live on air!
I think he's just made an outlandish comment he thought would get a cheap laugh. You can tell from the reaction he hasn't read the room very well, he's put his colleague in an uncomfortable position on live TV because he's being an idiot.
Well, do you think he should be sacked for this?
Don't you think taken to the side and talked to..."Jamie, you are an adult man, don't be fecking stupid with your asinine jokes"...should suffice?
No, I don't think he should be sacked. It was inappropriate, but not a sackable offense in my opinion. Maybe if he got a warning and continued to act like that on screen, but so far it's still an isolated occurence.
Insulting another member
I imagine the member Mart to be like jamie carragher, but a bit more of a prick, and as inept. 
They are literally never giving any sort of banter that questions character. The context of their banter is about relative sporting achievements, not about maligning a personal life.
Thats why for example, Henry doesn't banter with Charrager about spitting on kids.
As already evidenced, it's not banter. Literally no one took it that way apart from Charrager.
So Carragher is the Ja Rule of approving jokes.
We're not being paid to post on a forum.
This.
I probably agree, I was just wondering if he could maybe excuse it as shit delivery of a joke about her dynamic with Henry.
This isn't always the case. Very recently, Kate was making a joke aimed at Henry relating to Valentine's. There have been jokes made in the past referencing Kate and her past boyfriends. The banter is very schoolyard and unlike what you would see on any other professional Sports network.
Not excusing Carragher, but it isn't particularly surprising that a line has been crossed due to the nature of their banter. They are constantly acting like kids.
Literally every clip I've ever seen of that coverage is some sort of joke at the expense of one of the panel. The whole set up seems designed for them to pull out TikTok/Instagram clips that can go viral, so it's not surprising that we've reached a point where someone has crossed a line with a joke.
Micah Richards has said that they're given more freedom "to be themselves" on CBS than when they work for Sky/BT/whoever. As it transpires, Carragher being himself is Carragher being a massive tosspot.
It was an incredibly unfunny, cringy joke but the overreaction on here is a little wild

Not just here. Google him and news sites are running with it too.
That classic Scouse wit on display.
Apparently the last bastion of great humour in this country yet are the usually the most thin skinned, unfunny people.

Any reputable news sites or is it click bait trash designed to get views?
We need to make a list of other potential jokes Carragher will make in the future:
"I still think we can win the league. My hope is still alive!"
"Unlike your dog who died last week!"

What he said would be a breach of most HR policies in organisations, not sure what the overreaction is, people are pointing that out.

That is a really really weird one. Hope he gets booted for this, pretty strange private joke put on live TV.
Because this hasn't happened in a vacuum. The show's whole shtick is that they banter with each other, it's not like it's a serious show and he's said this out of nowhere.
He definitely crossed a line but all the calls for him to be sacked for it seems a bit over the top.
