Don't watch the fucking show, so couldn't give a fuck. I objected to Lineker
1. Because of how much they were paying him.
2. Because he's a cսnt.
I resent paying for a licence to be lectured on wokery

Should have given it to Kenny Dalglish, would love to have seen how long it would the subtitle creator to work out what he is saying!
It won't matter to you much who hosts it as you'd only forget what time it was on!

As long as it isn't one of the ex Tottenham reserves dickheads that seem to infest the airwaves. I quite like that Nedum Onuaha who is on one of the US channels. A step up from the hysterical ravings of the current "experts".

Are they saying they will have 3 hosts at various points in Dalglish, Logan & the bloke who killed John Lennon?
Heard that if Dalglish got the job by herself the pundits would be her Dad, Danny Murphy, Souness , Carragher & the killers of Jamie Bulger

kelly cates always has a manner like she's trying to calm a distressed horse stuck in the middle of a dual carriageway.
I.e. Roy Keane
yeah, think it comes from her trade. my friend who was a prison counsellor and dealt with a hearty mix of nutcases and suicide risks is the same.

Looks like Kelly Cates has been poached from Sky and will be sharing the gig with Mark Chapman and Gabby Logan.
Fucking hell, they're letting any cսnt do punditry now, even John Lennon's killer.

All 3 were my preferred choices, so sharing it between them wouldn't bother me with David Cootes as a special guest pundit on refereeing debates. Happy with that.

I’m not keen on Murray, I think it’s his voice

I would be fine with Colin Murray and Mark Chapman presenting it.
As long as Bob Mills ain't on making jokes about Claire Balding then Colin is a capable and highly experienced pair of hands who has paid his dues.
As for the women then obviously Gabby Logan and Alex Scott look the most obvious candidates but Laura Woods ain't a bad shout but ITV have her on board. Kelly Somers is alright too

I'd have no problem with a woman presenting, a few decent ones about and the presenter doesn't need to be particularly knowledgeable about the game, they just need to be good at presenting.
Gabby Logan
Alex Scott
Laura Woods
Would be ok with any of them.
Commentating or punditry on the other hand...
The Gobbler is in with a shout I would have thought...
If Gobs does get it, I hope she keeps the same time honoured tradition that Lineker started by stating she'd get her kit off and present MotD cսnt-naked should her Football Team win the League.

her Team's Man City...

That job, including prep, is about 5 hours a week. £100k p.a. is more than enough.

Gabby Logan/Yorath's personal life might be an issue
Really? Tell me more!
might be because she absolutely 100% definitely didn't have an affair with Alan Shearer
I thought that after not having affair with Alan Shearer she then went on not sleeping with any other available male around at the time.
It was supposed to have spiralled a little out of control (or not)

My biggest gripe with Lineker is the exorbitant wages he's on 1.3 million for hosting one programme.
Having worked for the BBC for fifteen years they were the tightest company in entertainment and lots of people there will be glad he's going
Especially the women

Apparently unlike most on here I'll miss him, I don't follow social media and don't give a toss about his politics but he's articulate, knowledgable about the game and doesn't take himself too seriously. Streets ahead of the inarticulate morons on sky, bt sport and radio 5. I assume its the revenge of the Tory head of the BBC Tim Davie, so much for BBC left wing bias bollocks
Doesn't take himself too seriously??? Fuck me, he's got you fooled. He's a fucking ego-maniac.
