Woke watch

[arsene york-hunt]

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Maybe he can take more of the Qatar shrapnel?

ED Former BBC executive Richard Sambrook said there is 'a lot of confusion' around whether freelance broadcasters such as Gary Lineker - who do not work in news - should be subject to the same rules as permanent staff. You seen his contract then Mr Brains??? If Lineker wanted he could have a fucking field day with the BEEB... I bet they are absolutely and utterly shitting themselves

[Gary Strodders shank]

Lineker could well of engineered all this and have another more lucrative offer on the table from an overseas broadcaster. The other pundits commentators etc will all follow like sheep as they lack the bollocks to do anything else.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

"happygilmore 1:05 Sat Mar 11 The BBC said it considered his tweets a breach of its guidelines and that Lineker will remain off air until it gets ""an agreed and clear position on his use of social media"" If he is contractually obliged to meet their guidlines and refuses to back down then they have no choice. If those standing in solidarity also back his comments then they must be in breach of those guidelines too. Personally I don't care. I don't watch BBC TV and think it should become subscription with the licence scrapped. Hopefully this edges that closer."

[Eerie Descent]

"Northern Sold 12:49 Sat Mar 11 I know you're hard of thinking son, but it's got nothing to do with it being abusive or not, it's about what the BBC expect of people who sign up to their lucrative contracts. I'm all for the silly cսnt voicing any opinion he wants, good luck to him. I can't fucking stand the BBC, but they have a set of rules, just the same as it's a criminal offence for anyone to watch any form of live TV without paying them for the privilege, they also expect impartiality from people who want to take their money. No one is holding a gun to his head, he doesn't have to take the millions on offer. It's pretty fucking simple. Engages your brain."

[happygilmore]

"Jean To be clear, tell us how he is on breach of his contract? That has forced the BBC to ask him to step down"

[solidbond]

In a show of support for Gary Lineker Millwall FC have released a statement saying they will continue there boycott of MOTD

[riosleftsock]

Has anybody noticed the rug being pulled from SVB (Silicon Valley Bank)?

Gary Strodders shank 11:38 Fri Mar 10 Re: Woke watch Has Alex Scott nailed her colours to the mast yet? I would think she would be the preferred choice despite not having learnt to read the autocue in 2 years of presenting Football focus. It will be interesting to see how many female presenters actually come out in support of Lineker. Scott has come out and said she is not going to present the show

"If he has breeched his contract then fuck him. He should know better, the sanctimonious cսnt. The same goes for the lot of them. They should all be sacked. It'd improve MOTD with extended highlights and save them a fortune in wages."

[bruuuno]

I think the issue is that he is a figurehead for the BBC who are supposed to be impartial due to the way the are funded. Fwiw I tend to agree with what he said but still think he’s a thundercunt

SurfaceAgentX2Zero 7:46 Fri Mar 10 I did say you didn’t say it yesterday but I won’t rely on pedantry. You clearly did admit it was a pejorative term so I apologise.

"Match commentators in discussions with unions about boycotting. We might get some old codger from the BBC doing a voice over. If nothing else, it's funny to see how the BBC can get themselves out of this mess. Climbdown?"

[Northern Sold]

Not a Lineker fan but fuck me you suspend/sack him for what he said you might as well just pull the plug... his Grandfather fought in Italy... I imagine one of the things they were fighting for was for people not to be scared to have a voice... you don't have to agree with it (like a lot of the shit on here)... but as long as it's not abusive... and in this case I don't think it was ... then the BBC would not have a leg to stand on if this went to court... and you know what good on the rest of pundits and crew sticking together...

[Sydney_Iron]

"to be fair i agree to a certain extent with Iron Duke! I don't have a problem with twats like Lineker spouting all that nonsense or giving his 2 cents worth on whatever issue, my view is we should all be afforded the same right to give our views, not have the Woke trying to censor or cancel certain viewpoints. So wanting Lineker banned, sacked etc is all a bit hypocritical IMO! Within reason of course, out right racism or someone saying its all ok to shag 12 years olds etc etc......."

[riosleftsock]

"""Right wing angry gammons"" LOL"

[Iron Duke]

It must be very confusing for all the right wing angry gammons to be taking the side of the BBC. I take it you won’t be watching anyway because you refuse to pay the licence?

[bruuuno]

"Or, just don’t buy one"

The proposed new format for MOTD will feature equal coverage of both the men’s and women’s game!!!!!
