The best natural defender of his generation. A proper scouser. A Red on the pitch. Clone and bottle his passion. Mr Liverpool. Thank you.

I can't give a higher compliment to a player than to say that when you see Carragher play, he makes you want to go out and play a game yourself.

Inspirational character, Liverpool legend, great role model.

Thank you, Carra.

Less than 24 hours left of Carra's Liverpool career, it's just a saddening thought.  My lad and his cousins have never known a Liverpool side without him.  I have so much respect for this man, proper legend in an era when the word is thrown about too often.

It's funny how he's actually played a pretty direct role in two of our most important goals. Crossing the ball in to Mellor for the Gerrard Olympiakos strike, and playing a ball into Baros? before Gerrard won the pen for the 3rd goal in Istanbul

We all dream of a team of Carraghers. Always.

He's the complete opposite of the modern footballer, epitomizes class and humility. 737 games. There'll never be another Carra.

Thanks for contributing to some of the best days of my life with your performances Carra, hope he gets to bow out with a win.

Bloody love that idea! Outside Anfield, make it with him holding the 05 Champions League title. Not sure if it would really be his "style" (I know everyone here knows what I mean by that), but he sure bloody deserves it.

It will be a strange and sad day on the first game of next season knowing Carra won't be playing. He's not only a legend, he's OUR legend and his career (especially that extraordinary night in Istanbul) will be remembered forever. Hope we get a late penalty and he steps up to smash it in. We'll miss you Carra, thanks for everything you mentalist  ;D

Dear Jamie,

I wish....you'd reconsider your decision.  We are going to lose one hell of an influence in the dressing room when you have gone.

If you have to go then thanks for everything you have done, you were always "us" on the pitch.

Firstly, thanks for taking the time to come on to RAWK to read this thread. I'm just glad I got mine in at the top as you will no doubt get bored by the time you reach page 15, and will just be glancing through. Let us know when you read it, so we can all follow your username and posts.

My regular match-going days and your LFC career have pretty much run side-by-side, so I hope you will miss seeing me in the crowd as much as I will miss seeing you play for the Reds. Somehow I doubt it though. Thanks for everything. Legend. And I mean true legend, not Igor Biscan type legend.

All the Best

Dear Jaime

Thank you for all your service to the cause , putting your body on the line time and time again, to reach 737 games with one club in this age is phenomenal, I'm just glad I got to watch you do it with us, because you are one of us
Also thanks for going all those years without any incidents off the pitch (we will forget the Xmas party ;D) . Not had to read any red top exclusives about you which is also rare, you just did your job professionally in and off the pitch, and for that I salute you
Carra you legend

Edit: oh and thanks for trying to break Nani's leg ,fucking loved that ;D

Your passion and commitment was consistently immense.
You put your heart and soul into it and we won't forget your loyalty and your huge contribution to this club. 
 
As you embark on your new career I know you’ll keep it as honest as you did when you played.  The media is full of halfwits and show offs, and I’m very confident that you’ll use your platform to put some of these idiots back in the box where they belong.

Always one of us Jamie

You were and are magnificent. You represent everything Liverpool has and will stand for. You a titan among men and a true hero. I'll never forget watching you put in that last ditch tackle against Sheva in Istanbul. You cramped yourself in the process but you didn't give a fuck. You kept going and you fought for the shirt. In a modern game where very few players remain loyal to their clubs, you are an inspiration to the core.

A fantastic player and an ultimate legend.

Thank you Jamie.

give us you daily scream

And forgive us for playing a man on
as we forgive you for moving like a tortoise
But deliver us from losing
for thine is the number 23

Dear Jamie,

I started watching football around about the 1997 season, only a 7 year old scouse lad with dreams of ever becoming good enough to play for the red men, week in week out. I never got the chance to live that dream, but you lived it for me, you showed me that it was possible, you embody everything the people of Liverpool stand for. Pride, Passion, Commitment and a never waving sense of strength that not many people have.

You're a true legend of the club and the city, you're the hero to children and men everywhere who have always wanted to pull on the shirt, a footballing man through and through and a true gentleman of the game.

Going to miss knowing that everything will be fine at the back because you're willing to throw your body on the line, all the best Carra and enjoy retirement!

Even the goal against Kaunas, and the spectacular volley against Fulham. You've got the best goal celebration I've ever seen. I'd have twatted that c*nt with a pound too. And I'd have twatted Arbeloa at West Brom. Was Jerzy scared of you when you were gesticulating before the pens in Istanbul? Looked like he was. I had a dream. You've lived it.
