I wonder if those who are so keen on him being sacked from his job were saying the same when a certain footballer of ours was being reported for beating his wife.
He made a disgusting mistake, it seems it's out of character and the family of those affected have accepted his apology.
We have a coach on our bench who headbutted somebody on the football field and ended up being paraded as a hero by our fanbase.
I’ve not called on him to be sacked but I’d be quite happy if he was . Let’s all be honest the rules don’t apply in football , that’s been shown time and time again. I’d be happy if our club decided it wouldn’t have a convicted wife beater playing for us , i’d Be perfectly comfortable with that as a position whoever the player . I think as well allegations are made and sometimes proven or not , carragher was videoed doing what he’s accused of and hasn’t stopped admitting and apologising since .
The difference between sacking a player and a presenter is that a player is an asset that can be realised a pundit isn’t . So clearly a club are well within their rights to want to sell a player rather than sack him , if he commits gross misconduct. It’s unlikely BT will pay £15m to sky for Carragher so effectively it’s apples and oranges . There is no doubt that sky could dismiss carragher if they chose to , id suggest he hasn’t got a leg to stand on contractually.
Ultimately sky recently had on John terry who was banned for racism and Rooney who had just been nicked for drink driving it seems unlikely that morals dictate their panel selection unless it’s a significantly lower profile individual like Beagrie.
