Carragher slams Liverpool as 'embarrassment' over Super League plans

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has slammed the club as an “embarrassment” over their European Super League plans.

The Reds amongst 12 clubs who have released a statement about a new European competition.

Reacting to the news on Twitter, Carragher said: “What an embarrassment we’ve become @LFC think of all the people who have come before us at this club who would be equally embarrassed as well. #SuperLeague”

That sentiment was repeated by supporters union Spirit of Shankly, who stated: “Embarrassing as fan representatives we are appalled & completely oppose this decision.

“FSG have ignored fans in their relentless & greedy pursuit of money. Football is ours not theirs. Our football club is ours not theirs. We will respond fully to this statement in due course.”
