Should have been sacked the first time he did it.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Why?

It's his personal account. Nothing to do with the BBC.

I see the MSN reportage is doing the usual thing of conflating criticism of the actions of the Israeli state with antisemitism. Not at all helpful.

I was going to wait a bit before I post on this thread, but I can’t.. Doubtless it should and will go to ‘non football’ but I will say this - one poster saying ‘gobbing off’’ and another saying he ‘should’ve already been sacked’ and then conflating issues doesn’t give me much hope that I’ll read much sense on the thread.

What part of him sharing a video which highlights mass and unlawful killings, aka genocide, do you object to?

Well this threads going to end well, I’m sure. Whether you agree with Lineker or not (on most issues I do) he has a right to broadcast his opinions on his private platform. The BBC have previously or do currently engaged the services of Michael Portillo, Brian Cox, Alan Sugar, Giles Brandreth, Jeremy Clarkson, Karen Brady and many many more who have voiced political opinions in their private - non BBC role. Why is Gary Lineker different?

It seems to be that those of a right wing hue only cherish free speech and liberty when they are being used to espouse right wing views.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Yes. GB News and Talk TV will lose their (tiny) minds and will complain about the ‘woke brigade’ and how they try to shut down free speech and de-platform people, and then try to shut down and de-platform Lineker because he’s expressed a personal view that is compassionate and actually correct. And….they’ll both not notice the irony, or treat their viewers with such contempt that they’ll expect them not to notice the irony.
