Lineker leaving MOTD

[Stephen230]

They would if it was Danny fuckin' Murphy :)

I know that’s a joke. But still. There would be moaning a plenty from people saying he’s a scouse shill. Or a shit pundit. Or even just an old fashioned cùnt.

But not a single person would mention his gender or skin colour as the problem.

People like to moan, in general the BBC are fuckers who seem to give popular opinion the big fat bird. IMHO it's only good and proper the public give them grief for it.

I for one can't wait for the whole of the organisation to get canned.

Step up that utter fuckwit Laura Woods

I’d step right up to her.

Depends who they get. Lineker did a completely different job to Des Lynam and David Coleman for example. He’s primarily the presenter. But I imagine he’s encouraged to chip in with his opinions also. As you’d expect from someone who’s played the game at the very highest level.

Good presenters from a journalistic background know that their job is to simply anchor the programme and draw the best out of the guests. Who may not always be as accomplished speaking to camera as they are.

What you absolutely don’t want, is a Richard Keyes type. Who’s convinced himself over the years that his expert opinion on the game is what the public demands.

 

[Nightmare Walking]

I'd give it Angus Deayton.

Step up that utter fuckwit Laura Woods

No. No and no again.

 

[Thaksins Love Child]

That scouser Sam Quek is a good shout

 

[BlueFurn]

From the bits I have seen recently, on any football program, a mix of Mark Chapman, Izzy, Nedum and Theo Walcott would do fine.
They just need to comment sensibly and link between games. Intelligence over smart arse gets like Ian Wright, Keown, Murphy, Shearer…and Micah.
Make it informative again…

Has anyone asked if Everton have been informed?
If not can we do so please
Also, I'm really surprised we haven't been blamed yet.
