If only that were real, I’d like to promote whoever was responsible for that page.Nice to see the Beeb is giving him a good send-off.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Why thank you, my dear, but I already have an agent.
My daughter had a bit of an encounter with him a few years ago and was left with exactly the same impression.
Let’s just say it’s better to be a man interacting with him than a female.
Best thing they could do for motd is bin all presenters and just show the highlights.
Be careful what you wish for Vicki Sparks or Alex Scott?
Whilst Gary takes over at Sky?
Feels like it’s overstayed its welcome. I agree with that.
Replacing like-for-like then ?
It's funny, as I never liked him; you'd think he would be an absolute legend for scoring twice against the goons in the SF. You can't take away his goal scoring record, but the fact that he never got booked tells me he was never involved in the nitty gritty of a game.
Bring back Des Lynam
Totally agree , the best MOTD was the one where the commentators went on strike and all we had was action highlights.
Jermain Jenas will be livid at this news coming so soon.
Absolutely
The millions for Linekar, Shearer and whoever else fancies a bit of pocket money that week are ridiculous.
If you were going to watch MOTD, you're not suddenly going to not watch it because a few overpaid footballers aren't on it anymore.
You could get good presenters who are knowledgeable for much less - if you even need presenters.
I always fast forward them anyway and just watch the highlights.

Dishy Des?
Guy is smug and up his arse but the reason I dislike him is because a girl I used to work with was badly treated by him verging on criminal behaviour. Let’s just say he isn’t trustworthy near ladies.
We've won one trophy since Lineker's been host.....he started in Aug '99.....
Lineker's ex, Danielle Bux, was already the wife of a teacher at a school my children attended when she met Lineker.
The teacher was apparently a really decent guy. I think he quit his job not long after his wife's affair with Lineker was made public.
Lineker Out!We've won one trophy since Lineker's been host.....he started in Aug '99.....
Oh hold on.
Remember Rory Bremner? "I wine 'em, I dine 'em...I Des Lynam."
