Neill said: "It is very sad for Jamie and I feel deeply sorry for him. No-one likes to hear of any player being injured, especially for the long term, but there was absolutely no intent on my part - I simply went to play the ball.
"I am an aggressive and committed player, that is part of my game, but I play it fairly.
"I pass on my best wishes to Jamie for a speedy recovery and hope at some stage to be able to go over to see him and shake his hand."
It is unlikely, of course, that Jamie Carragher will feel so inclined to accept Neill's dubious gesture at this point in time.
