Scott Carson - retires age 40 (p5)

[Columbia]

Gone but not forgotten. Nice bloke Scott, hope he enjoys his retirement.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Whitehaven's No 1. Did he want to retire? He's only 39, not 93! Got more years left than Stan Matthews clocked up!

 

[adopted_manc]

Gutted. One who I think has contributed a lot to our successes - and has often been overlooked. Thanks, Scott!

 

[KS55]

Good luck to Scott, highly respected in the club.

 

[shemnel]

all the best Scott, equal longest time period between 1st and last European Cups, 18 years, with Maldini and Costacurta

Is this a sign we're looking to step up and young keeper in and around the 1st team squad?

Most medals for least amount of football great if you can do this.

 

[RiversideBlue]

He had the best seat in the house for some of our greatest achievements. Hope you enjoyed the ride and thank you Scott.

Apparently a statue is on order to be placed in the Glauber Berti Garden of Heroes

Needs to be this...

 

[Centurions]

I would guess he is joining Chelsea or Arsenal as they are both desperate to be us.

Well, we're linked with Chelsea's 3rd choice goalie so a quick £15m deal each way will help with PSR.

 

[ooh vonky vonky]

Statue of him sitting on the bench wearing a fireman’s helmet?

already commissioned

 

[Blue Til Death]

Only 6 years? I thought he’d been here since Hyde Road .. All the very best to him

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Don’t be sad that it’s over; be happy it happened.

Those 117 minutes you played will never be forgotten.

 

[RayCTID]

Good luck for the future. Despite the lack of game time was still a handy player to have in the squad. If it is Bettinelli as the replacement he too is a decent keeper to have.

 

[Silkyisblue]

I always wanted carsons job, he had the best job in the world

 

[city9320]

Think he was a good character off the pitch and will probably be missed. Hopefully comes in as a coach/keeper coach or something...

 

[Vienna_70]

I think I read somewhere that Scott played four Champions League games and has two winner’s medals.

Thanks for everything, Scott.

Pity it wasn't two minutes less!

 

[Damocles]

He'll be missed in the dressing room

 

[Mifred]

Pity it wasn't two minutes less!

He would have been charged
