Him and all his champagne socialist mates should eff off and establish a media channel all their own, I suggest TalkWoke where they could even sprinkle in a bit of sport if they wish.

Would be a great time to get Matt Le Tissier on your show Nick 😁

Spot on as usual Nick. Time for a clear out from BBC Sports. To be honest I record the football and skip the rubbish in between. I'm sure the Jewish community are in full support (not) of this latest pearl of wisdom from Lineker.

Personally, I am concerned that all this non-news about a football commentator is actually just being used as a distraction from anything that is actually important. Take your pick, the collapse of a US bank, massive excess deaths, Ukrainian suspected sabotage of Nord Stream pipeline, actual mass illegal immigration, etc, etc, take your pick. Stop indulging in this bread and circus nonsense and get back to reporting serious stuff. I also think MOTD was better without the blah blah blah nonsense.
