Jamie Carragher hilariously 'finds a way to win' after the Liverpool legend was denied entry to an Ibiza nightclub for wearing flip-flops
The Sky Sports pundit, 47, has been enjoying some downtime over the summer months ahead of the coming campaign.
On Friday Carragher shared a snap alongside his wife of 20 years Nicola, with the pair enjoying a picturesque boat trip on the Spanish island of Ibiza.
However, it appears that the former England international's evening wasn't quite over yet.
In a video shared to X by non-league footballer Leon Greenland, Carragher appears to be denied entrance into an establishment for failing to have the appropriate footwear.
Seemingly undeterred by the initial rejection, Carragher then appears in a subsequent video having managed to make his way inside after reportedly purchasing some ill-fitting trainers.
Fair to say @Carra23 really didn't want to admit defeat last night when refused entry for flip flops.
A quick shopping trip later….. he's in😂😂😂 FIND A WAY TO WIN! pic.twitter.com/R9PSOq7bfX

A video appearing to show Jamie Carragher being denied entry into a nightclub has gone viral on social media
The Liverpool legend later managed to make his way inside, having seemingly purchased a pair of ill-fitting trainers to meet the dress code
In a video circulated widely on social media, Carragher can be seen hilariously flaunting his new shoes before offering some sage advice.
'Hey, I got in!' He can be seen saying.
'What do I always say on Sky? Find a way to win. We find a way to win.'
The incident comes after Carragher was seen dressed as Willy Wonka for his daughter Mia's 21st birthday.
The Champions League winner ditched his usual pundit attire for a purple velvet coat, top hat, and oversized bow tie as he channeled the eccentric chocolate factory owner in celebration of his daughter's milestone.
Mia, who was dressed as Poison Ivy, marked her birthday in style with a lavish party surrounded by family and friends. But it was her dad's eye-catching outfit that stole the show on social media.
The 47-year-old posed proudly in full costume, sharing photos and videos from the party on Instagram.
He wrote: 'What a great night for Mia's 21st birthday fancy dress party,' alongside a heart, dancing and beers emojis.

De Armas was seen placing a tender hand on Cruise's leg as they chatted, with the two Oscar nominees wearing matching fedora straw hats. The No Time Do Die actress looked chic in a white lacy dress for her day with Cruise, who showed off his own buff frame in a white shirt and black shorts. 'Tom has been showering Ana with gifts ever since they met, it's his thing, he is thoughtful,' a source exclusively tells 'First it started with her favorite flowers then books he thought she would want to read because she's an avid reader,' added the insider. The Hollywood icon, 63, and the Blonde star, 37, who were first linked in February , looked smitten as they relaxed at sea in each other's company - with an insider dishing on romantic Cruise's generosity towards his new partner 'The more they got to know each other, the bigger the gifts became. There has been jewelry like gold bracelets and designer clothing, things like that, things every girl would love. 'Probably the biggest gift he has given her is being able to go anywhere in the world at a moment's notice, not many people can do that. She loves to travel.' has contacted representatives for Cruise and de Armas for comment but has yet to hear back. De Armas was last known to be dating Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuba 's president with the pair photographed kissing during a night out in Madrid, Spain, in November 2024. Meanwhile, Cruise was previously linked to Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova who is the ex-wife of oligarch Dimitry Tsvetkov and his Mission Impossible co-star Hayley Atwell. Cruise and de Armas first sparked romance rumors on Valentine's Day, when they were spotted for what was reportedly a professional dinner in London. The following month, they were pictured with cheeky smiles on both of their faces after their flight landed at the London Heliport. They have been friends ever since they co-starred in the 2019 movie Wasp Network.

In mid-May, an insider spoke about how Cruise is 'super smitten' with de Armas even though it is still early into their romance. Cruise and dr Armas are co-starring in Doug Liman's supernatural thriller Deeper. On GMA in May, the actress said: 'It's so much fun. We're definitely working on a lot of things. Not just one, but a few projects with [filmmakers] Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I'm so excited.' Cruise shares a daughter Suri, 19, with ex-wife Katie Holmes. Katie and Tom began dating in April 2005 and after declarations of love they revealed they were expecting their first child in October the same year. They welcomed daughter Suri in April 2006.

In June 2012, Katie filed for divorce and on July 9, the couple signed a divorce settlement worked out by their lawyers. The acrimonious split saw Tom state that Katie divorced him in part to protect Suri from Scientology and that she is no longer a practicing member of the organisation. Late last year, it was reported that Suri, 19, is now able to access the substantial trust fund set up by her famous father. Holmes has since enjoyed romances with Jamie Foxx, chef Emilio Vitolo Jr and musician Bobby Wooten III. Cruise was wed to Nicole Kidman from 1990-2001 and they adopted two children together, Bella, 32 and Connor, 30. Kidman is now married to Keith Urban and the couple have two daughters.

From penalty taker to physio: Lucy Bronze is England's Swiss army knife
Lucy Bronze pinned up a picture of herself after the 2019 Women's World Cup bronze-medal match against Sweden, which England lost 2-1, for her teammates to see on a wall in the team hotel where players and staff share inspirational images. She was, in her words, 'absolutely exhausted' in it, hairband round her neck, shirt crumpled, hair awry, the physical, emotional and mental pain of the preceding 90 minutes visible. That photo represents so much to Bronze, England's stalwart right-back who no one has come close to replacing and likely never will. 'I will give anything and I will give everything when I play in an England shirt,' she says of that image of her at her most broken. 'I wanted all the girls to know that that's my why. My why is to give everything for this team because I just love playing for England so much.' On Thursday night, at the Stadion Letzigrund that Bronze had spent the afternoon replicating in Lego with Michelle Agyemang, the veteran defender encapsulated her why, delivering for the Lionesses when it mattered most. Bronze was left with an array of new photos to choose from: standing arms wide in the first half, pleading for a diagonal ball that could unlock a path into Sweden's half on the right; powering in her header from the substitute Chloe Kelly's cross from the left to reduce the two-goal deficit to one, then kicking an advertising hoarding in a show of emotion; taking tape out of the team doctor's bag to tightly strap her own thigh deep into extra time before ripping the remains of the tape away; and dispatching England's final spot-kick in the tensest and most chaotic of shootouts at a speed of 102.51 km/h. 'I just felt a little bit tight at the end of the game and I thought: 'I just need to get through to make sure I can keep going,'' Bronze said of the self-treatment. 'But then I thought: 'It's going to hinder me in a penalty.' I didn't expect it to go to the sixth penalty, so I didn't take it off and then it was my penalty and I thought: 'I need to take this off, I'm going to smack it.'' Beth Mead said: 'Lucy was chaotic. A lot going on. With her taping her leg up she became a physio, [then] she became a striker and nailed the best penalty of the day. She did it all. Lucy really showed her experience in those moments. She's our most experienced England player and she was one of the players that very much got that determination out of us all today.' Bronze's message to Hannah Hampton before she stepped up to take her spot-kick was concise. 'I literally said to Hannah: 'I'll score this, you save the next one: game over,'' Bronze told Sky Sports, ice strapped to her right thigh, some kind of recovery device attached to a calf, as she marshalled Agyemang through the mixed zone, prompting her follow goalscorer to speak, coaching her through this high-interest new world after the 19-year-old's phenomenal introduction to the senior side. It is not the first time Bronze has done this: it was Bronze who virtually grabbed Lauren James by the scruff of the neck after the forward's player-of-the-match performance in the 2023 Arnold Clark Cup and told her she had to speak to the press, doing the interview alongside her, encouraging her. It was also Bronze who stepped forward after the humbling 2-1 loss to France in England's opening game of these Euros and rallied the side. She leaned into her Lionesses history to help the squad over the psychological hurdle of, in effect, being straight into knockout football by sharing that, after a loss to France in the opening game of the 2015 World Cup, the team went on to record their best finish in that competition (third). One member of Football Association staff described Bronze after the 3-2 win over Sweden on penalties as the best player they had worked with. In the press conference, Sarina Wiegman, usually so dispassionate in the face of questions about individual players, preferring to not highlight them over the team, let her love for coaching Bronze flow out, adrenaline still high. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion 'Lucy Bronze is just one of a kind,' the head coach said. 'I have never, ever seen this before in my life. I'm a very lucky person that I've worked with so many incredible people and incredible football players, and there are so, so many, but what she does, her mentality, and how she took that penalty and the goal … She gets it in the net, but that's not what defines her. What defines her is that resilience, that fight. I think the only way to get her off the pitch is in a wheelchair.' At 33, 34 in October, Bronze is edging towards her career's close, but she is fighting the end, forcing it further and further into the future with each exhilarating performance. But it is not just the performances that matter. Bronze's experience and influence are significant and vital as the next generation comes through. England need her, not just at right-back, but everywhere and in every way.

'He was a nightmare to play against, he'd nip & push you!'
"Scary. Tenacious. Very intimidating. A good leader."Martin Boyle can only be talking about Darren boyhood Hibs fan who got to live his dream should be all giddy the night before his testimonial at Easter Road on Saturday, but the defender turned coach is instead recovering from a road traffic accident. McGregor, who won the 2016 Scottish Cup with Hibs, will not play in his own testimonial against Bolton, but former team-mate Boyle is still urging supporters to shout about him on his special day."It's unfortunate timing for him," Boyle told Sky Sports."We wish him all the best for his recovery and hopefully they turn up in their numbers."It will be a great occasion for honouring the man for what he achieved at the club and hopefully he can have that special day."Boyle played with McGregor for seven years during his first spell at the club and admitted the former Rangers defender "brought the fear factor"."He was a nightmare, he'd push you and nip you, he'd do everything, pretty much everything, to win," Boyle added."He was just intimidating, just playing against him every day in training."A down to earth guy, family guy, but when he crossed that line he was just a different mentality."He brought that fear factor for everyone."
