I quite like Stan Collymore on the station as well. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to football and his shows are often good debates with Mark Saggers mainly. I don't agree with everything he says but despite his accent he is a good listen. When we were at our lowest under the previous owners he regularly raised the topic on his shows and put some of our so-called legends to shame who were scared of losing their perks.

Is a so called red who used to work for the Sun, he's a fucking cunt.

I won't link to that fucking rag, but this google search should help.

 

micky quinn the sun - Google Search

 

That link just shows a load of features they've run on him, and one claiming an 'exclusive'. It may well have been, but they've got a habit of claiming exclusives on stuff that isn't theirs.

 

I'm not saying he hasn't worked for them, I wouldn't know as obviously I never read it. If you're sure he has then fair enough, I'll lose respect for him as he must know the score so there's no excuse.

Keys talking bout hillsborough says never mind that it was Liverpool which some people will not like it was a human tragedy... Fucking hairy armed rat always throws in sly digs

 

I heard that - really annoyed me. There's was absolutely no need for him to say that.

Fuck sake. I was loitering around the Gough fest in work waiting for him to finish talking to someone so I could tell him to his face that I think he should stick to talking about cricket as he clearly knows jack shit about football. Whilst loitering I filled in a slip of paper for some competition. I got a call this afternoon informing me I've won a mini-cricket bat signed by Darren fucking Gough. That, Alanis Morissette, is fucking irony.

Carragher admits career end could be close | Evening Echo

 

Carragher admits career end could be close

 

10/6/2011 - 7:29:31 PM

 

Liverpool’s vice-captain Jamie Carragher today admitted his career could be over in a year’s time.

 

Carragher has made 676 appearances for Liverpool since coming through the youth ranks and making his debut 14 years ago.

 

He has been a regular in the Reds defence since coming on as a substitute in Liverpool’s League Cup game against Middlesbrough in 1997, but the 33-year-old concedes his long and glittering career may be nearing its end.

 

When asked how long he had left in the game, Carragher told the Leaders in Football conference in London: “Ask (Liverpool boss) Kenny (Dalglish). He picks the team. It will be up to the coaching staff I suppose.

 

“You want to try to get as much out of your career and play as long as possible. The time will come in the next 12, 18 months, maybe two years.

 

“That won’t be down to myself. It will be down to the people around me, the staff, the manager. They will decide.”

 

Carragher’s full-blooded displays at the heart of the Liverpool defence have earned him many plaudits during his career and his leadership skills have seen him touted as a future Reds boss.

 

The defender admits he would love to go in to coaching after hanging up his boots.

 

“Do I want to go in to coaching or management? Yes, I think so,” Carragher said. “I’ve taken my first steps to coaching and the B licence. We all love the game, you want to stay involved in the game.”

 

Carragher made morning headlines when he claimed that England are "cheating" by employing a foreign coach as their national manager.

 

The defender insisted this evening that his claim should not be viewed as an attack on England boss Fabio Capello, but more of a plea for placing trust in home-grown coaches, and he even claimed that every part of the national football set-up should be English.

 

“It’s nothing against Capello or anybody who comes in in the future,” Carragher added. “It’s nothing against foreign players or coaches. I just think that’s what international football should be about.

 

“For me we shouldn’t have a foreign member of staff. The best doctor in the country should be the England doctor or the bus driver. That’s what international football is. If we’re not up to it in certain areas we have to improve.”

 

Carragher also thinks the presence of foreign players is impeding the development of young English players.

 

The defender has hit out at the Premier League for not protecting the home-grown youngsters coming through the ranks.

 

“Everyone wants to play in the Premier League now. Players at our academy don’t get a chance,” he said.

 

“Our academies are not just full of local players. They are full of foreign players too. That’s a bit of a problem for me.

 

“I think no foreign players should leave their country until 18 or maybe 21 and I think I think the academies should be for local players.

 

Former England and Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes claimed recently that the England camp had been divided into Manchester United and Liverpool cliques during his time on the international scene.

 

Carragher, who was a member of the squad at the same time as the retired Red Devils player, agreed, saying: “I saw that. I don’t think it was Man United and Liverpool. It was more Man United and the rest.

 

“They’d all grown up together those Man United players. They had been in youth teams together. They would always sit together at meal times. It was just like the five best mates together.

 

“They’d all come through together. It was a tight-knit thing. They were best mates. They had a great youth team. It was more of a case of that.

 

“There were that many of them. They had such a good team. They probably had seven or eight in the squad at the same time. It was probably difficult for anyone to break into that little group and get to know them.”

Keys and Gray detest foreigners dont they?

 

Indeed. I haven't listened to it, but did Carra go on there to put them straight regarding their thinly veiled xenophobia and bizarre obsession with all things English. I hope he did. Ledge.

 

Is that the sound of champagne corks I hear popping on RAWK?

 

Seems like more of a Ribena place.

Not really.

Scary to think that some would want him in after Kenny.

I bet the foreign lads at Liverpool love all his rants about too many foreigners coming over.

 

The academy is in much better shape than it was three years ago and there's more good local kids coming through as well than there was. We can't afford to be insular.
