I suppose if you were offered a million a year to do the same, you’d politely decline? I would suggest it’s more those who choose to pay him that salary should be questioned.

That is without doubt the most biased, hostile drivel it has been my misfortune to read about an outstanding Ex England International footballer and consummate broadcaster, but then again, seeing as it is quite obvious that you are an expert at how a TV studio and broadcast works, you are entitled to your opinion?

Ha! Funnily enough, I worked with the media for over 30 years - so yes, I know how it works. I never questioned Lineker’s contribution as a footballer - you’re right, he was an outstanding servant to our game. But no need for you to overreact because I didn’t agree with your cosy ‘our Gary’ description relating to his broadcast career. He seems to think he’s a politician and social commentator too judging by his silly social media posts. If you think my tame response was the ‘most biased, hostile drivel’ you have ever read, then I can only assume you don’t read much ...

Try chilling ffs. The guy is entitled to his opinion, and that includes him posting a yawn to your comment. And calling him an online creature is pretty pathetic, if you stop and think about it.

But, the poster you are supporting, in case you missed it, he or she laid into me when I questioned their cosy view of Gary Lineker (like I said, he or she, you posted and referred to that poster as a ‘he’ - it’s dangerous to assume in this modern age) - they then replied saying I don’t know how the media works - I replied saying I’ve worked with the media for over 30 years, so I DO know how they work; the intelligent one replied ‘yawn’ rather than debate and be educated so they were obviously admitting they got it wrong and then you leap in to defend them ... so you think ‘yawn’ is fine even though it’s obvious that poster realised they got it very wrong, people posting crap then running away is fine by you?

I have resisted mentioning it until now, but as you are constantly harping on that you are apparently Mr Media expert, I thought i would point it out, as you never shut up about your 30 years, as man and boy? I worked at the BBC Whiteladies Road and London TV Centre for a combination of 14 years, most of the time on location or in a studio, I then went freelance. I have seen Michael Burke, Johnny Morris and Chris Packham, among many others close up and using an auto cue. I have never met Gary Lineker, but I can see he is a natural in front of the camera, who makes a difficult job look easy. Calling someone "pathetic" , who you have never met or spent time with, is in my eyes trolling...............Now please go away, Mr Media Tycoon. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On landing spent time to thank all of the crew individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
