This actually brings up an interesting point for me. Lineker has been presenting MOTD since the VCR era, he should have been replaced years ago. What value does he really bring to the show? What justifies such a long tenure and such high wages?

The BBC and a lot of other organisations allow people to squat in prominent positions for decades, long after they've ceased to be innovative or even average.
Not sure as I’m a bit ‘dim’!
 
You are very concerned about population density.
Yes, yes I am. For the myriad of reasons I've listed on the UKpol and this thread, with multiple sources cited.

You should maybe think twice about who you're calling racist, I've shared my experience with racism enough times on here.
 
This thread has turned into TFCs 'I am Spartacus' moment.

I am glad he has gone. Not because of his Tweet but because the bloke is a cunt.

Good riddance.

I was just watching the BBC news and Alastair Campbell was on totally supporting Lineker and Wright for showing solidarity and then went on a political rant about morality etc etc

Bearing in mind that this was the absolute cunt advising Blair before he took the country into an illegal war and deliberately lied to Parliament in order to do so

It's Match of the Day, not a talent show.

Value? Continuity and insight and control of the pundits and professionalism.

Give me that any day than some presenters who are simply there to make up the numbers.

His social media comments are an irrelevance to me because he is one of millions who hold a false sense of self importance on critical matters of wider concern and complexity.
 
Don’t like Gary but respect to him for standing by his rightful point.

Fair play to Wrighty too.

Free speech constantly espoused by the tories…unless it’s against them of course.
