Sky Sports pundit and former Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher has been suspended by Sky sports till the end of the season over an incident which saw him spit at an individual in a car after the Manchester United v Liverpool game.
The former defender who joined Sky Sports in 2013 as a pundit, was goaded by a Manchester United fan after they won 2-1 against Liverpool and he spat at the man in retaliation accidentally hitting a 14-year-old girl in the process.
He has since apologised saying it was a moment of madness and Sky in turn have said that he could come back next season. A spokesman for Sky said, “Following an internal review, Sky has suspended Jamie Carragher for the remainder of the football season.
“Jamie has taken full responsibility for what has happened and we will ensure he gets the help he needs to guarantee something like this never happens again.
“Before the start of the next season we will sit down with Jamie to discuss whether he is ready to return to his role.”
Carragher tweeted: “I have already said I take responsibility for what happened.
“It was a moment of madness and I’m going to speak to the relevant people to ensure something like this never happens again. Again apologies all round.”
