Lineker leaving MOTD

[stonerblue]

How much did Sainsbury's pay him for the Christmas advert?

How much do Sainsbury make in profit at xmas?

Edit £13bn in grocery sales 2023

Just read the BBC article it looks like he asked for more money and The BBC refused

Sounds he actually offered to take a pay cut. Not sure how you got your conclusion from the BBC article though.

Probably the right time. Now sack MOTD and the BBC off.

As expected

Another reason to give it a miss imo.

She seems to fit the profile as an ex-player but I don't remember her particularly adding anything to the conversations with in-depth contributions.

Problem could be down to the editor deciding what her contribution should be of course.

Led to believe, from a reliable source, that Chappers isn't as likeable off screen as he is on screen.

What kind of source and what kind of likeability are we talking here? Nobody compares to him in quality of his job as as a presenter, particularly any of the female presenters they are trying to push through.
I've heard this morning on tS he would only go for a job if he does not need to share it with another presenter. Or maybe he has a nasty experience how they completely destroyed his perfectly good NFL show. And I am not sure if I care about his off-screen persona, I just want somebody to bring a bit of character and knowledge into very anodyne show. And please lose those stupid triangles and polygons pretending to explain some tactical positioning.

I like the BBC as a whole.

I just don't like it's football department. Stuffed full of utd and liverpool fans, so their output is like no other teams exist.

Chapman offered the job but told he'll have to share it with a female presenter. Allegedly told them to get fucked.

A Loose Women panel it is then :)

She is a woman. That's what the BBC care about. Lets not pretend otherwise. Many many men are way more suitable for this role than her. And all football fans know this.
