Jamie Carragher "will continue as a pundit for Sky Sports next season while on a final warning" following talks with network execs "during which his TV career was on the line," according to Charles Sale of the London DAILY MAIL. Carragher has been suspended since March after he "spat out of his car window" at another car carrying a 14-year-old girl and her father. The driver, who took a video of the incident, "had been goading" Carragher about ManU's victory earlier that day. The former Liverpool defender will return for the start of the Premier League campaign next month following a meeting with Sky Sports Managing Dir Barney Francis. A Sky spokesperson said, "We’ve spoken to Jamie and reminded him of the standards we expect at Sky Sports. He has shown remorse, is hugely apologetic for the offense he caused and has taken the appropriate steps to make sure that the incident will not be repeated" (DAILY MAIL, 7/3).
