Marine finished 12th in the 2025-26 National League North table, the report says, and have registered notable achievements in recent years including promotions in 2022 and 2024. The club’s recent cup pedigree has also featured an FA Cup third-round meeting with Tottenham and a run to the semifinals of the FA Trophy, the report adds.
Per the report, Carragher — who lives in Crosby — described Marine as a genuine community club with positive people involved and a clear plan for the future. The report says he added that he has enjoyed watching the club’s development and is pleased to offer support in an advisory capacity going forward.
The report says Marine are planning to build a new stadium as part of their continued growth. Chief executive James Leary told the club’s announcement that this is a significant moment for Marine, noting that Carragher follows the club’s work closely and cares about both the game and the local community.
Leary, the report says, believes Carragher’s experience and contacts will be a substantial asset as Marine progress. The advisory role is presented as part of a wider effort to sustain momentum on and off the pitch while the club pursues stadium development and further advancement in the coming years, per the report.
