      In instances like this Adlab, I think a Bus is the best option to stop Messi.

      Only 2 English Teams left now and I think you guys CAN genuinely cut the mustard over the 2 legs.

      Let’s hope though both Liverpool and Man City get the more favourable draws.

          Pagan, I’ve just seen your reply.

          It seems EVERYONE wanted him sacked for seemingly their own boost of self-worth.

          At first I wanted him gone instantly, but I had a change of heart after seeing his interview with Sky News. The way talk was here for the last couple of days or so, it was as if there was no room for him to rehabilitate.

          I used to work with probation with ex-offenders and when you look at their ‘portfolio’, they have with them ‘baggage’ 5-10-15x worse. I’m not wanting to compare the two or play down spitting as it’s baron, full-stop.

          I’m looking at wanting to help somebody who to me was genuinely remorseful and wanting to make amends.

            I didn’t realise it was something to make a mockery about. If an employer is all for somebody in this position to get the support needed, then so be it.

            A lot of males in particular don’t really have in this modern society, proper good and trustworthy friends they can count on.

                He needs to sell the players he doesn’t want, but to do that, he needs to be clear in his own head as to what he wants.

                It seems like a 2 tier selection system to me implemented. You have one which for the first time was spot-on against Liverpool, and then we go back to picking players and arranging formations that rubs supporters’ backs the wrong way or one is scratching his head to come find some sort of a logical explanation.

                He’s winner, I have no doubt there, but he needs to perhaps assess himself and accept things and time have moved on and he’s not the Manager he was when at Porto and/or his first spell with Chelsea.

                I notice a little too his way of stagnating certain individuals from playing and progressing is spilling onto Old Trafford – maybe a clash of personalities. He’s a control freak to me and I saw from the outside a lot of this with Joe Cole in the role he wanted to play, at Chelsea.

                  They say you shouldn’t mix football with Politics, or it’s just a sport and it’s not your life, but how can you totally separate when it dilutes with you through everyday wear and tear and there’s a whole sense of euphoria when a tournament like the World Cup is to be staged in the Summer?

                  I must be thick to still be clueless in grasping what it all is about with Russia. We should be concentrating on Brexit, but now we are embroiled in this.

                  I hope the tournament CAN go ahead, but my main concern is the safety of humans, whoever they support. There is no place for hooliganism.

                    Nine, I refer to my reply above mate. Too many people conveniently want to hop on to play judge and jury.

                    That’s a problem in our society.

                      Just to get something off my chest which I am annoyed about, I’m not a fan of the guy and I don’t think a great deal of his ranting when he analyses as I always thought somebody neutral would be better suited, but the furore out of this including somebody like Lizzie Cundy to give an opinion not to mention the Sky News lady ‘putting him on trial’ to me was going taking it a mile too far.

                      Anybody sensible and unbiased knows he was aiming for that idiot who goaded him because of his repetitiveness. He shouldn’t have spat, but the intent was never for that 14 year old girl.

                      Joey Barton too, perrleeze, do me a favour – that’s what pissed off about this is those conveniently jumping on their high horses.

                        Good call.

                        Now hopefully, we can move on from this and people like Vinnie Jones can get back in his box.

                              The only time I was actually happy as a football supporter for United during their domination was when they first won it in 1993 – those two Steve Bruce headers at Old Trafford against Sheffield Wednesday.

                              I remember them vividly on Match Of The Day. I was a teen at school and I had school mates that were United supporters, so was pleased for them, but after the 1996 FA Cup Final, and losing at OT 1-0 in a league game of the subsequent season along with us underachieving in not winning the Title that season was the start of my resentment towards my rival club.

                              I did sense though that some of them actually wanted us to win the title back in 13/14 after so many years of us guys waiting.

                              Sounds a bit freakish huh? I even liked a few of their kits from the 80s and early 90s 🙂

                                Cheers Nine.

                                I was just thinking from purely a human being perspective and thought back to when I was in Primary School, from then you get sternly educated from Teachers how bad Spitting is.

                                It’s just vile. In all my history, I can only recall Diouf resorting to this and Frank Rijkaard in Italy 90 on Rudi Vohler. Neither of them rightly escaped punishments.

                                      Nine, I’ve mentioned the same in my replies on the concept of not using former players that have recently retired from playing for their clubs.

                                      It seems too a simple ‘walk in’ to broadcasting and punditry type of jobs. I think there are more better persons both male and female for example employed by the BBC that are not former footballers and have no real affiliation with any of the PL club badges.

                                      It seems though from the way you’re speaking re Carra, there’s no place at all for him as far a punditry goes. If that’s not an option for him realistically as far as England goes, then he could work elsewhere, or go into coaching.

                                        Nine, previous history has been identified by yourself and WIB and facts are facts.

                                        I’ve maintained all along, I condemn this from top-to-toe, but what I’ve been trying to bring into the subject to add to the discussion is his interview with Sky. I saw another side of Carragher that I’ve never ever seen and he was genuinely close to tears after the Interview pointed out that he has daughters of his own.

                                        Perhaps it needed that somebody really harsh to interview him and pretty much come down on him like a ton of bricks. From an organisation/employer point of view, that speaks volumes and sends out the right message on par with decent folk in society.

                                        Obviously discussion continues as his position hangs in the balance.

                                        Logically speaking, in reality I don’t think there is a return because in relation to Carra’s own ‘job title’ part of this involves highlighting the subject of discipline. The way we have INSTANT access to various mediums of communication, there will no doubt be people quick to remind him of his own former actions and “that’s rich coming from you”.

                                        It’s also a bit like employing somebody who has faced being bankrupt to then deliver you with financial advice. The trust and the confidence is lost and to an extent, I get where Paxton is coming from being that for the immediate future, seeing this sorry unsavoury image will be fixed on their mind each time they see Carra’s face.

                                        I would therefore say the best form of action all round is to cut his ties with Sky and begin with a clean slate with a Different employer. He would probably be snapped up quite quickly by BT, BeIN or NBC – even get a job on the Radio.

                                          Maybe further down the line, they’ll be some form of reasoning from a behaviour and trait point of view.

                                          I don’t know though why anybody would resort to spitting at somebody unless they are absolutely angry and disgusted with a fellow human being.

                                          This fella clearly went out of his way to ‘make a point’ of 2-1 whilst having his daughter sat right next to him. Not only that, he chooses to make a recording of it.

                                          Carra has just been through 2 hours of punditry in which resulted to a disappointing outcome. He probably went through a crowd of United supporters giving him plenty, so this could have been the tip of the iceberg and just venomously retaliated.

                                          Having to be in the company of a certain depressing Souness doesn’t exactly help. I’ve said all along, even though Neville’s exceptional in how impartial he is that these guys are too close to the badges of their former clubs.

                                          Not easy for some out there when you’re on the wrong end of a result to remain a ‘code of conduct’. I’m not excusing for those to turn into wild animals, but this is something to take into account. I do think though, spitting is just something you wouldn’t even do on your worst enemy.

                                            Pax, that’s probably your own perception at this moment in time.

                                            When Luis Suarez’s name comes up, I don’t immediately think of ‘that bite’ on Cellini during the World Cup. I think of him as a Barcelona player.

                                            I absolutely detest spiting on somebody. The problem in this particular scenario was that the daughter got caught in the crossfire of the clown that clearly goaded Carra.

                                            I seem to think there’s slightly more to this than something of a flash in the pan. My understanding of it was that this happened from leaving the ground. Clearly emotions are high from a defeat and you’re in the surroundings of Old Trafford.

                                            I’m not excusing his behaviour but trying to draw to some kind of a reasoning in what to me was something more than a moment of madness. I think from yesterday’s interview, he resisted in opening up underlying thoughts, but instead just focused on being apologetic to which he to me sounded genuine.
