In a day where modern footballers idea of loyalty is signing a double your money contract or I'm off. And kissing the badge means I'm as passionate as you fans, till i leave at the end of the season.Isn't fantastic to see a loyal player like Jamie Carragher, set to go equal second in the all time appearance's list along side Emlyn Hughes and Ray Clemence if he plays tomorrow against Newcastle. Although rival fans disrespect Carra as a player, he's the epitome of all that's good in a footballer. Honest, committed, loyal, fair, a leader, and inspiration to younger players. Although a BN as a kid, he's as much Liverpool FC as Shanks, Bob and more. Well done Jamie, lets hope for a few more games yet.
Carragher is an absolute legend. Proper player. Well done on picking up on this. How many more does he need to be no.1?
Carra has been a loyal servant to LFC. It is good to know there is a sense of loyalty in football. Well done Carra and good luck for the rest of your career.... Except tomorrow!
Cally made 857 appearances and got booked........once.He's the only player to play in Bill Shankly's promotion winning team of 1962 until the League Championship and European Cup winning team of 1977.Carra is second only to him.Its a remarkable achievement that our two highest appearance holders came through the ranks.Cally succeeded his idol Billy Liddell in the Liverpool team,and Carra gets better with age.Carra could easily make over 700 appearances.He possibly could have made more,but remember when he started he was a utility player.He could play everywhere,He started in midfield,played both right and left back,and started his career in Liverpools under 18s up front.
Didn't Callaghan only ever get 1 England cap as well, due to Alf Ramsey's wingless approach at that time?
He got 2,11 years apart.He got his first in 1966,although he was in the World Cup winning squad and got his medal years later,so did Gerry Byrne.He got his 2nd in 1977.
Theres been worse than ''Charlton Farmer''. Steve Hodge, Neil Webb. Danny Wallace. Phil Neville. Gary Neville. Ray Wilkins. Gary Birtles. Steve Stone. Wes Brown.
He's been Liverpools finest Liverpudlian defender since Phil Thompson.Even if Carra was a boyhood bluenose.We'll forgive him for that as he's seen sense in his later years.Robbie Fowler was a bluenose until he was 10 and got a lift home in King Kenny's merc,and then he was converted.
No worries Molby. I bet that bloody presenter wasnt exspecting that! Pepe he wasnt actualy turned when Everton fans started throwing pies at him! And graphiti on his parents house. But i'm sure the ride helped a little! You read his book I take it?
