Motd had half million more viewers since lineker walked out!! Why apologise or take him back?!!!
Jimmy Savile Anyone?…
…The BBC Could-Not Get-Laid In A-Brothel Boys And Germs…
What a mess
Has he apologised yet for buying/bribing his position out of Boris Johnson??
That’s it take the knee you shithouse, keep taxing the poor to pay for woke elites
BBC: (Contacts Gary after realising MOTD isn't working as well without him and the boys)
Gary: You could not live with your own failure and where did that bring you? Back to me.
The BBC died today
What hypocracy, wouldn’t apologize unless it became an uproar. No respect, no common decency.
What a climb down! Lol.
Lineker 1, Tories Nil 😂😂
go easy on gary , he is both a tottenham player and an england one, thats a poop sandwhich if ever i saw one ,
This is just a start. Now the Three Tory Stooges (Sharp, Davie and Gibb) must go. There should be no political bias at the BBC.
I remember a gagging order against the press from a famous England International in the 80's relating to a love child. Freedom of speech works both ways.
I don't get the English they watch football games with no English players they watch TV where the English are vanishing & now in politics & on the Streets they love mass immigration & will be marching with Gary illegals welcome here most who follow Gary's post will know he has been protesting over 10 years to import more rapist killers robbers terrorist from the French
Loving all the angry, right-wing morons seething in the comments section!😂
Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland: GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN! Fascism is coming soon to an England near you! Let an isolated England come crawling back to the EU.
“Gary Linker 1-0 BBC Credibility,” ….GL progresses to the next round….
Cowardly capitulation by the BBC. The one time it should have stood up against left wing cancel culture & it turned yellow. Appeasement, as this clearly. is, never works. The lefties that infests the BBC will only be more emboldened.
Translation: "We, the BBC, have shot ourselves in the foot. We will come back to Lineker with hat in hand, begging him to do us the honor of returning. Please let us double his pay and we will grovel at the feet of him, our audience, and all of the people we have offended."
Tim Davie did not back the courage of his convictions
How about apologising for protecting Jimmy Saville for DECADES!😡
We should all not pay the TV license and when they come to your door just say “sorry I don’t want to fund a corporation who protected Jimmy Saville for DECADES”
A top man who has impressed with his calm authority amid the hysteria.
This is probably the first step towards contribution only and certain bankruptcy.
LET STOP THE LICENCE FEE TODAY
The BBC have proved yet again that they are not fit for purpose.
It was a total backdown – the only thing left now is for Tim to resign… come on get on with it!
