The problem I struggle with is that people like Carragher are TV sports figures and not everyday people. They earn their high salaries by living in the public spotlight and as such are expected to behave with a little bit more decorum in such circumstances. You simply cannot have it both ways...if he wants people to listen to his opinion and respect his views then when the cameras switch off he is not allowed to.
Whenever these celebrities are out in public there is a certain code of practice they should follow. They give up the right to anonymity the day they sign a professional contract with a football club, TV company or any other such corporation. When that guy 'intimidated' him with a chant of 2-1 he should have simply waved, smiled, wound the window up and then called him whatever he wanted to under his breath.
Not for one second did it enter his mind how spitting at someone would affect his career and the people/family around him....it also strongly suggests he has done this type of thing before when provoked. He carries a responsibility around with him to behave in a manner suited to someone who has millions of people watching him on Sky...he has shown scant regard for it and in my opinion should resign.
That again is only my perspective and I too don't have any problem with people having alternate views.
