Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
I was more intrigued by the amount of spit he produced in one flight and the distance it travelled!
Spitting is awful, imagine all the germs and illness it can contain.
Do l think he should be sacked? I’m not sure? At first, l thought, yes, just for his total arrogance and a man in his public position should’ve known better. Now, l’m not so sure as he is a very popular football pundit.
As for the goading man in the other vechicle who was filming whilst he was driving or, whilst the engine was running... Book him Danno... Murder One!!

Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
It was the mans 14 year old daughter who got covered in Carragher's saliva, and the man wasn't rude he just said its been a bad day for you nothing controversial at all. Of course Carragher should be sacked if a grown man spat at my 14 year old daughter I would expect at the very least he was sacked.

Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
Is spitting on someone defined as assault in the UK?https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/578847...gher-incident/
Battery is the application of unlawful force, and as well as spitting, covers incidents of pushing and slapping.
Spitting, if done deliberately, is seen as an assault.
Common assault carries a maximum penalty of six months in prison and/or a fine or community order.
A prison sentence is generally reserved for cases where serious injury was caused, and higher culpability is present.
The offender will have higher culpability if they have previous convictions or there are aggravating factors, such as the attack being racially motivated, the assault was premeditated, or the victim was vulnerable.
In other cases, a fine and community order is the more likely outcome.

Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
I don't know if I would say he should be sacked, he has a wife and children to provide for but I do think it is disgusting what he did. That bloke who took the picture should also be punished, he was deliberately trying to antagonise Carregher, even his daughter could be heard saying 'stop it dad' which tells me she thought he was being out of order. Whatever possessed Carregher to spit I have no idea, urgh, disgusting. He's apologised and can't really do anything else but await his fate, but I personally hope he doesn't lose his job. He has certainly embarrassed his family, if I were his wife I would be furious with him but also worried how this may affect their family life.

Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
It was a stupid thing to do but I don't think he should be sacked. He will be feeling pretty embarrassed and stupid right now anyway. It just proves his childish ignorance. Perhaps a pay cut for a year.I do think Police should pay the other driver a visit though. Using a phone whilst driving is illegal. Both parties were acting like tw@ts.

As Popeye used to say: Let he without sin cast the first stone.

Re: Jamie Carragher ...... Spitting.
Did the other car driver take the photo?Maybe it was his daughter in the passenger seat who took the photo on her phone.
Do we know which side of the other car Carragher was parked on?
If he was sitting on the other gobby drivers side, or was he next to the daughter's side of the car?
If Carragher was parked by the daughter's window, I would think it was her that did the filming as her Dad would have been too far away surely.
