Has to be the sack. How can it be anything else?

Also this whole bloody gotcha culture where everyone is just waiting for somebody to slip up so we can put it on social media destroy their careers is getting really tedious. Bollock him and move on.
World's gone mad. Can't even spit at someone these days without getting in trouble...
The
Twitter witch hunts and public shamings
are pretty nasty and agree it's a horrible trend, but this one didn't take much blowing up. Also not sure why it's taking so long to give him the boot.

Just been watching BBC chat with Freddie, Robbie Savage and Ping Pong guy going on about spitting being lowest of the low, worse than a head butt, punch etc. Don’t know about anyone else but I’d rather take the spit, it doesn’t hurt and I’m going to flatten the person (assuming they aren’t enormous
) that did it one way or another after be it punch, ashtray or whatever other weapon I can reach.....

We're not in the 90s anymore, Woodsey
You definitely don't strike me as the type to go glassing people, either.

Bizarre and disgusting. Clearly, Sky can sack him if they so choose.
Thompson and Gallagher both kept their jobs after drink driving offences. The latter was 3 x the drink driving limit at 11 in the morning and on her way to pick-up her children and that is 100 x worse than spitting in my opinion.
Good chance Carragher stays IMO. Unlike Keys and Gray (who they wanted out) it strikes me they don't wan't to lose Carragher. Hence he has been free today for multiple apology interviews on the Beeb, ITV and Sky whilst they test public opinion. Support for him by some of his media chums as well.

I’m not, but funnily enough people don’t cause me problems because I’m polite and people don’t talk shit to me in real life like they do online. But if it comes my way and I can’t avoid it I’ll do what’s necessary to make sure I don’t get hurt.......unless I’m a dribbling pissed mess which does happen on occasion in which case I’m probably fcked

I've found that I don't get much aggro, now I don't act like a helmet. That said, I almost got into my first fight for 10 years last summer in Vegas, when some pissed up brit decided he wanted a row. Would have been quite interesting, considering I can't move without crutches
Generally easy enough to avoid, most of the time, and flinging ashtrays about is never going to end well, lol.

I find it hard to decide what is more unedifying. The public shaming witch hunts or carraghers ridic apologising trying to cling on to his job. Both are unpleasant aspects of society today

I don’t ever get any aggro, especially since I stopped playing poker, it was people pulling fast ones I couldn’t help but say something to, had a lot of close calls but nothing ever happened. Closest was in Vegas a few years back, jeeezzzzz thought it was going to happen and I doubt it would have ended well for me in hindsight lol but hey ho......
As for the mouthpieces slinging insults on poker forums, well they don’t say boo to a goose in real life from my experience......

When he is sacked it's going to set an interesting precedent when we get another Rudi Voller. Team's new £100m striker spits at crowd or another player? Errr it is disgusting...but you know what...
