Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

[Gone for a Burton]

Thank the Lord he's gone and taken his lacky Shearer with him.

Smug,Multi millionaire, champagne socialists on ludicrously disproportionate salaries....neither will be missed !!

Hopefully Neville & Spitty will piss off too.

I'm available to replace any of them.

So who will present Scabs of the Day with Danny Murphy…?

Another Danny springs to mind!

Never got the hate for Lineker.

He is bright, witty and crucially for me, doesn’t appear to have been egregiously diminished by fame. He also has a regional accent in a world that is replete with posh boys. Would say, given what his dad did for a living, he was working class - and we need more genuinely working class presenters at the BBC. The BBC is tediously bourgeois. And if I’m saying that, fuck me it must be bad.

Think he’d be seriously engaging company on a night out. I would say he was very well read. Think I’d really enjoy his company.

Some say he’s ‘smug’. Just don’t see that. And I spend my working day surrounded by smug cunts.

Mate of mine was in Lineker’s company on a piss-up 20 or so years ago. Said he was an “absolute disgrace“. And amazing company.

That‘ll do for me.

Well said - he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but there are far far worse and he was a top top player in his day so in my book his football opinion is worth something. Don’t mind him to be honest and like you say I don’t get the hate either.

And who would you replace them with ? Just asking.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Hypocritical nonce cunts.

 

[Bodicoteblue]

Easy…give the job to Stanley Johnson for maybe 2 episodes and use his vast experience and service to the game as a valid reason for his knighthood.
Then he could do some boxing coverage too, as he seems to know how to throw a decent left hook.

I've just read that the BBC are also cancelling a DAVID ATTENBOROUGH programme because they 'fear a backlash from the right wing'

The quote I made earlier from Martin Niemoller is beginning to sound more apt by the minute!!!

What are the alternatives to Gary Lineker

I don’t understand the hatred either.

Without knowing him personally I quite like the bloke.
