Is spitting worse than endangering your own child's life by driving whilst using a mobile?
Stupid; but hardly endangering life. They are clearly in very slow moving traffic. Let’s no over egg this.
Slow moving? Not so sure mate... They seem to at points be hitting 30-40 mph not endangering their own lives, but maybe any pedestrians or the people who they could have rear ended whilst not watching the road. Carragher is just as bad as he isn't watching the road either.
Basically they're all c*nts.
Especially the 14 year old child... Just because .

Are you suggesting that using a mobile whilst driving doesn't endanger life? That probably won't wash with the families of the 35 people killed in mobile phone / driving incidents last year.
Incidentally, there have been no recorded deaths due to spitting.

For all the wrongs that Joey Barton committed I just don't see him as someone who would spit at a car with a 14 year old kid in view. But he would have been sacked before he'd even wound down his window just for being Joey Barton.
You're so far off the mark there AA. There is nothing Barton wouldn't do, as people have pointed out regarding cigargate.

Does Jamie Carragher spit at his own kids when he's annoyed or if they've provoked him?
Astonished that anyone is trying to excuse him. Are we saying it's okay to spit at people if they goad you slightly? Irrelevant of how big a twat the guy filming him was he could simply have ignored him.

Add:- December 2017. Becomes a co-host on the Alan Brazil breakfast show on Talksport. Now well paid to talk about his "bad boy" days, when not trying to pretend he is now some intellectual, deep thinker.
I'm not up to date with all these technological gizmos but could Carragher have been filmed by a dashboard camera rather than a phone meaning that the driver wouldn't have been at fault
I'm not up to date with all these technological gizmos but could Carragher have been filmed by a dashboard camera rather than a phone meaning that the driver wouldn't have been at fault
No mate, was definitely on a phone.
Not to mention a Dash Cam will record footage and then write over itself provided there are no incidents.
The only way to save footage (So far as I'm aware) is when the Dash cam feels the impact of an accident happening?
Normally a button on them, so you can save a part without recording over it.

A lady on a radio phone in today was suggesting that footballers are role models for society, I couldn’t disagree more.
Thats the most annoying statement anyone could ever make!!... Footballers arent role models!!
It's quite a shitty depressing story as a whole really There are plenty of those about and a lot worse things happening but this is two parents letting their kids down and they are both not actually bad people.
You make an error in the public eye and it can cause a lot of long term damage
He was in Killarney last week for an evening with fans at the Gleneagle Hotel. Lots of pictures in The Kerryman of him with young children looking as if butter wouldn't melt. None of them seemed to have spittle on their faces, which was nice.
Tweets a prank comment with a "fake" number about Gary Neville, doesnt check if the number actually exists first and ensures some bloke gets flooded with messages!!
I detest that man with every fibre of my being. I have to mute the football he commentates.
Sky once told their employees that they are representing the company on the journey to and from work. That they should behave as such or face the consequences. He shouldn’t be in a job there.
Anyone see his comments moaning about the timing of the CL final? What an absolute clown.
“No-one’s been able to give me a reason why the Champions League is three weeks after the league campaign.
“It’s normally two weeks, where you have the FA Cup then the week after is the Champions League.
“That’s not too bad, so I do feel for the players, that extra week. I can only think it’s the FA thinking, ‘Oh we’ll do this to help England in the Nations League’.
“That’s p***ed me off a little bit that to be honest. I think it probably helps Spurs more than us, I would say.
“I think they’ve got bigger injury problems than us, certainly with Harry Kane, Harry Winks, other little knocks they had towards the end of the season. It gives you an extra week to be fit."
Now i'm certainly no football expert, but he should be given he's spent his entire life involved in the game and is paid to be an 'expert'.
Firstly our FA do not set the the date of the Champions league final. UEFA do.
Secondly, the date is set so it is after all the major leagues have finished their seasons. I know this may come as a shock to Sky, but the world doesn't revolve around the premier league. Serie A only finished last weekend and the Spanish and German cup finals were Saturday night, so i'm pretty sure there would have been a problem had the CL final been then.
Lastly he seems to forget that it also gives Liverpool time to give Firmino, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Gomez a few more weeks to recover.

Astonished that anyone is trying to excuse him. Are we saying it's okay to spit at people if they goad you slightly? Irrelevant of how big a twat the guy filming him was he could simply have ignored him.
Reads a couple of books and thinks he’s fucking Plato.

There are plenty of those about and a lot worse things happening but this is two parents letting their kids down and they are both not actually bad people.

Key word = unnecessary.
