      Landlords say Andy Carroll trashed his Merseyside mansion
      Ex LFC striker faces claim after more than £48,000 worth of damage discovered
      by Steve Graves

      Former Liverpool FC striker Andy Carroll is being sued for  almost £200,000 after accusations that he trashed his luxurious former home on Merseyside and failed to pay the  rent.

      Landlords Jeff and Dawn  Grant claim ex-tenant Carroll  damaged antique furniture and  fittings, removed items including plates and TVs from the  house, and left it in such a state  that it needed more than  £48,000-worth of cleaning up  and repairs.

      The couple allege the house’s  12-metre heated indoor swimming pool was neglected so  badly it became infested with  algae, while items including a  barbecue, garden lounger and  air hockey table were all said to  have been damaged.

      They also say the player –  Liverpool’s most expensive  ever signing, at £35m from  Newcastle United –  missed  £68,000 worth of rental payments on the £2m mansion in  Hall Road East, Blundellsands,  which is now up for sale.

      In court papers served this  week on London-based solicitors acting for the player, now  with West Ham United, it is  alleged Carroll took away  £75,000-worth of furniture and  other items, including expensive stereo equipment and  CCTV cameras.



      The five-bedroom detached  house is set within a gated community and includes a cinema,  billiard room, dance studio,  steam room and gym.

      Among the areas of the  mansion worst affected was  said to be the marble-tiled dining room, which leads on to the  pool complex and Jacuzzi, and   which contained a considerable  amount of antique furniture.

      The court papers claim  chairs needed to be re-upholstered and mirrors replaced,  while they also say smashed  glass was found in the swimming pool area.

      Carroll has so far denied  owing the Grants any money,  and is understood to have  claimed he placed a number of  items in storage in a bid to  protect the £15,000 deposit he  paid on moving in to the  house.

      He and the Grants had  agreed a two-year tenancy, during which Carroll was sent to  West Ham on loan, before  completing a permanent move  to the London club after the  tenancy expired in May. 

      It is understood that at one  stage before the move the parties had discussed Carroll  buying the property outright.

      Leanne Wheeler, senior  solicitor at Manleys, the  Chester-based firm acting for  the landlords, said: “The papers  have been served with him, so  we are waiting for him to admit  the claim or defend it.

      “If he does defend it, then we  will consider what he says and  what the next steps will be from  there.”

      She added: “This was a high-  spec property, and one of the  terms of the tenancy was that it  would be returned in the same  condition as it was in at the  beginning of the agreement.”

      The ECHO was unable to  reach Carroll or his solicitors  for any comment on the legal  action yesterday.

      Think his bad lifestyle is catching up with him.  I know it's his foot (again) but as a professional athlete you have to take care of yourself.  Healthy living is more than just what you eat or drink.

      I feel for him really but he needs to take some responsibility.

      That seems good until you remember that with the rest of his fee and outgoings that came with that deal we lost the same as what we got back.

      And to think he got to sit through a boyzone concert with King Kenny, not that I particularly like Boyzone, butI'd sit through a Jedward concert for a couple of hours with the King.

      we have much better facilities than west ham and if he was always here and wanted then he might not have broken down so much and could actually be playing OK for us (and England mind you as that career was starting to get off the ground). but I'm sure you could say this for tonnes of players. maybe his body really is destined to break down, who knows. we will never know.

      Not coming from merseyside this is new to me, I think if BR new something of his character it's no wonder he went when he did there was no way BR would put up with an idiot who does not have any self control. The injuries he's had since he left has made him a walking disaster zone and thinking on it getting what we did for him was good bit of business. Well done Mr Rogers.

      There's talk of him retiring now.

      Twitter has decided that it's either injury / coke addiction.

      Just the other day actually I was thinking it's like he's retired, nobody ever mentions him at all any more and he never plays does either.

      He's in Belgium having treatment on his ankle isn't he? Sure I heard Large Sam saying he wS there and their physio was over there every week checking on the ankle.

      Amsterdam no?

      I don't think it's true about retiring but I can see him being out for the season anyways. There was talks of that recently too.

      It's not the first time the coke rumour has popped up either! Remember that picture of him at a festival during the summer...
