Jamie Carragher starts podcast with message to victims of Liverpool parade crash
Liverpool's trophy parade turned from joy to tragedy after 79 fans were injured when a car ploughed into crowds of people and club legend Jamie Carragher has now made an emotional tribute Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher gave a moving tributes to the victims of the trophy parade crash during his opening address on the Overlap Fan Debate. Fans of the club are still reeling from a horrifying incident that saw a car ram into supporters while they celebrated the team's Premier League title on the streets of Liverpool on Monday. At least 79 people were injured, including a nine-year-old child. Paul Doyle, 53, has since been charged with dangerous driving, causing grievous bodily harm with intent, wounding with intent to cause GBH, and attempting to cause GBH with intent. The crash saw 27 people taken to hospital, with seven still being treated for their injuries after the terrifying scenes. Carragher gave an emotional tribute to those who were involved and sent a message of well wishes to anyone who was caught up in the crash. "I'm sure you are aware of the tragic events that happened in Liverpool around their trophy parade," he said to start the show. "Everybody here at the Overlap just wants to send their best wishes to everyone involved and hopefully fingers crossed everyone is OK." Carragher then spoke to a fan who was on the streets when the incident happened, as he recalled "fearing the worst" as he struggled to get hold of his son - who was near the site of the crash but thankfully was unharmed. "I turned onto Dale Street and as we got 400 yards down, police were running past us and screamed at us to get onto the pavement," he said. "By the time we got to the pub, people came in and said something had happened involving a car. Immediately you start to fear the worst. "My first move was to get hold of my son because I knew he was round and about. I couldn't get hold of him because of the amount of people there. When I eventually got hold of him, he had been right there and he had seen it. "One of his mates spotted the car coming towards him and pushed his mate out of the way and saved his life. Collectively, we're all thankful the whole thing wasn't worse. It easily could have been." Other tributes have poured out from Liverpool figures, with ex-boss Jurgen Klopp admitting he was "shocked and devastated", while current manager Arne Slot hailed those who helped fans in their "hour of need". Slot was due to attend the LMA Awards dinner but withdrew out of respect for those caught up in the incident. He said: "This is not a decision I have taken lightly but it is one that I feel is absolutely right given the seriousness of the situation. I hope that I have your understanding in this regard.
