Ex-Spurs Player Gary 'the ears' Lineker is a prick - discuss

[TonySoprano]

I imagine he is doing all right from his podcast (just ask Flav sitting in his Clarksons farm ), but will the BBC allow Shearer and Micah to associate with him and keep their roles?

I don’t think they can stop them working with Lineker on other projects.

Nor should they tbh.

But therein lies the whole problem .. you've just done it yourself;
Israel AND Jews ... as if it's one and the same.
Believe it or not, not all Israelis are Jewish, and not every Jew is Israeli.

They're two completely separate things.

Anti Semites would LOVE the world to assume (wrongly) that Israel represents ALL JEWS, and spit their vile anti Semitic beliefs on fusing the two together... Hate Israel = Hate Jews... thing is, they already hate Jews, so hating Israel just gives them a more visible target to hang their hatred on.

Zionism and Judaism are two different things.
Speaking out against Israel and anti-Zionist sentiments are NOT necessarily anti-Semitic.
Hating Jews regardless of where they're from, just for the sake of hating Jews, is!


As I say, nothing anti Semitic there...
Anti Zionist perhaps, but definitely not anti Semitic...
Those who think it's all one and the same are part of the problem!

I didn't say they were the same, I'm making an observstion based on experience and what I've seen.

That's not actually the situation though, was it? He reposted someone else's video about Zionism and there was a rat emoji/cartoon somewhere in the header of the video. He's not posted a picture of jewish people being depicted as rats, although funnily enough that is what Israel does for it's enemies.

Anyway, it was something that he should have spotted and he shouldn't have reposted it. He didn't, and even though he deleted and apologised as soon as it was pointed out, it was enough rope for them to hang him with.

Feel free to keep making stuff up though. Seems like you're not that aquainted with the facts yourself.

It's always projection with Zionists. The same people complaining about Lineker have no problem with stuff like this:

IDF reveals 'Sinwar the Mouse' mural at urban training base

"We painted Sinwar as a mouse in a tunnel, aiming to make our fighters smile," artist Rotem Zamir said.

No that's clearly not the situation, despite the fact that we saw with our own eyes what he posted. What is the situation in reality is your claims of the (((lobby))) acting in unison with mossad and Benjamin Netanyahu in disposing of this twat. Yes the ZOG in full action!

Leftists defending twitter posts displaying nazi styled rhetoric about "muh Zionists". Horseshoe theory proved correct again.

Just watched his Final MOTD (obviously NOT for the football) but just out of interest to see his final send off...

...and what I DID find VERY interesting (and telling) was that during the 'Goodbye dedication section' for him there was not ONE mention, or ANY footage of Spurs, or him even IN a Spurs shirt... let alone him lifting the FA Cup with us!

Yet there was plenty of footage of him at Leicester and Everton and Barca and England... Y'know, EVERYONE ELSE he's played for.... but strangely not us! (oh, and Grampus 8... So we're in good company!)

Was that deliberate, was it an oversight, was it personal???

Or was I reading too much into it?

Maybe this should be in the Media Bias thread... but either way, fuck off MOTD!

Nice comments from Gazza which also indicated Lineker’s loyalty to teammates and friends. I hate how he became a big mouthed political arse, but he deserves respect for his career and his colleagues seem to like him. Let’s move on.

Your’e obviously far too young to know this ;

But a certain man once said;

“ what I know most certainly about morality and obligations ; I owe to football “ .

Think about it .

I literally told you - shaww I message you so you can pin it?

His best book was 'The Plague' which was very on the nose when it came to the Pandemic...I have an original French 1st edition of 'The Stranger' but I do prefer 'The Fall' which should become a film...

You're quoting Albert Camus - I'm an Absurdist! fukk those commie twats like Sartre...

Yknow I studied Philosophy at Bristol Uni right? great degree to use in the IT Field lol.

In the actual thread I keep pointing you to. Admin has been pretty clear that he doesn't want political slanging matches on these kind of threads.

Don't bother dudu .

This little nitwit will just call you nasty names, post Al Jazeera slop, and then foul-vote you when you laugh at his dumb-ass.

He has a podcast empire not just his podcast. Probably why he stepped away

Surely it’s possible to be allowed criticize Israel while not be accused of being anti Jewish.
It’s like saying everybody in Ireland was in the ‘ra in the 70’s and 80’s.

 

[Donki]

It’s as clear as Linikers ears the BBCs agenda and political angle, Russia is bad Putin is crazy compared to the coverage in Gaza. If he had criticised Russia I doubt the BBC would have batted an eyelid. Don’t even get me started on the world’s response to Israel compared to the response to Russia.

If people think Linekar was on the decline, if he was ever that good doesn’t really come into this. The question solely should be, is his own views or what he puts online worthy of being sacked?
