No he was on Everton's , who he supported as a boy , books for a year but never on the books of United .

It'll be a tough first game for Gary Neville on Saturday with Valencia at home to Barcelona.

No it won't. He doesn't take charge until Sunday.

That isn't evidence that Carragher was "on Man Utd books" which is what you were claiming.

I said he was on their books as a kid.
'when he was with us' does seem to back my statement.
