MotD

[Lionel Bart-At]

i was only joking. couldn't imagine anything worse than balding

Same here. I’m thinking of just shaving it all off.

 

[BFC1997]

Has Jenas said he won’t do it? He was my first guess as who would step in.

Presumably there’s Chapman as well.

 

[BURFORD BEE]

In the ultimate act of hypocrisy Andrew Neil whose political views have been aired for all to see and hear whilst stealing a living as a presenter,has come out on the Beebs side.

 

[Shamrock_Bee]

I wasn’t making comment on the situation - just the merits of having new panelists on the show.

Yes exactly my point! It's good you're allowed to express an opinion on something.

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Has Jenas said he won’t do it? He was my first guess as who would step in.

If they have any sense they will have their excuses at the ready and just wait until the inevitable fall of someone involved in this decision.

 

[ManorBee]

Great news. Maybe we can have a programme that just shows the football highlights without the boring analysis from experts who patronise us with their comments!

 

[Untouchable]

 

[SmiffyBee]

....I reckon Martin Keown should be given the brief.....est possible role

I agree

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Been watching Sky News for over an hour and a half now. This is the only story they have covered. No mention of major incidents in Germany or Sunak in Paris. Bit much, really.

 

[SmiffyBee]

I guess Mark Chapman will present it. I will not be watching it.

Which Mark Chapman please.....I can think of a few....?

I must have missed his MOTD presenting years.

Chappers also reportedly snubbing it (Matt Hughes tweet). Good for him

 

[Hudgebadger]

What about Colin Murray hosting it?

 

[BURFORD BEE]

I must have missed his MOTD presenting years.

Probably did if you were watching This Week

 

[Untouchable]

 

[nocoat]

What about Colin Murray hosting it?

That’s fighting talk !

 

[NorthamptonBee]

What about Colin Murray hosting it?

He’s too good for that show imo.

 

[JCMcBee]

Chappers also reportedly snubbing it (Matt Hughes tweet). Good for him

....if they're all mates....they should have each others backs.... regardless.

 

[longtimeagobee]

i was only joking. couldn't imagine anything worse than balding

Tinnitus ain’t great?

 

[Hudgebadger]

That’s fighting talk !

Also presents R5 evening show, and did the EFL on quest as well

 

[BURFORD BEE]

Just shows how bloody parochial we are. Did I hear there was an earthquake in Turkey s couple of weeks ago? Understand there’s a skirmish going on in the Balkans as well. Do you think we’ll play a back 3 tomorrow?

 

[Hudgebadger]

He’s too good for that show imo.

I don’t disagree, but would he take the gig if offered it?

 

[SmiffyBee]

I've just checked with Les and he confirmed QPR will not be appearing on Match of The Day anytime soon.

Good on them I say ?

 

[hanworthbee]

What a nob !

 

[Wise old Bee]

The BBC can't be seen to back down now so, unless they just show highlights without the usual punditry, they should pull the show completely. It will probably mean a repeat of Mrs Brown's Boys though.

 

[Ace Face]

Well done Woody!

I am confused though, can MOTD presenters live on the show comment on hideous, horrendous treatment of workers in Qatar, but they cannot comnent in any personal capacity about the illegal horrific treatment of fellow human beings actioning their legal right to claim asylum in the UK.

 

[Gee Bee]

Give it to Rebus, I suspect it will be Alex Scott but hope she turns it down

Already confirmed she won’t do it

 

[NorthamptonBee]

Already confirmed she won’t do it

Is that his new pronoun? Has Alex spoken yet?

 

[Untouchable]

It’s going to be Danny f***ing Murphy isn’t it and we’ll get another 10 minutes about how Ivan should have been sent off against Fu(ham.

The BBC could show the pulled David Attenborough Wild British Isles show that criticised climate destruction and climate change instead.

 

[Gee Bee]

Confirmed presenters

 

[JosephBFC]

What a nob !

How does showing support for his colleagues make him a nob?

 

[Newbee]

What about Colin Murray hosting it?

No chance, didn’t he leave TalkSport due to the parent company of the Sun taking them over.

 

[Stanley]

Probably guarantees MOTD best viewing figures for years as everyone tunes in to see whose there…

 

[Brigadier Gerard]

The BBC could show the pulled David Attenborough Wild British Isles show that criticised climate destruction and climate change instead.

Back in my day, BBC would fill unexpected schedule changes with Tom & Jerry cartoons.

But they no longer do this, and that’s why this world is a more angrier place.

 

[kevalutonbee]

How does showing support for his colleagues make him a nob?

Was wondering the same thing

 

[hanworthbee]

How does showing support for his colleagues make him a nob?

Cos he's not on it so what's the point of even saying it

 

[kevalutonbee]

Probably guarantees MOTD best viewing figures for years as everyone tunes in to see whose there…

But only for the first ten seconds when they go on not that prat.


is the tub of lard from Have I Got News For You still available

 

[JosephBFC]

Cos he's not on it so what's the point of even saying it

As I’ve said, showing support for his colleagues..

 

[BURFORD BEE]

You’ve no thought for the poor mouse? You should be ashamed!

 

[hanworthbee]

Well let's see if Richards boycotts anything the BBC does that he appears on like Monday night club etc

 

[Simon W]

It’s going to be Danny f***ing Murphy isn’t it and we’ll get another 10 minutes about how Ivan should have been sent off against Fu(ham.

He looks like he can’t afford to turn down an evenings work.
If Lineker doesn’t return to MOTD, I wonder how many would throw their hat into the ring?

 

[Wise old Bee]

No chance, didn’t he leave TalkSport due to the parent company of the Sun taking them over.

Colin Murray made a principled stand which is commendable. How many of those refusing to be on MotD tomorrow were happy to rock up in Qatar recently?

 

[HaylingBee74]

That would improve the programme quality so they can’t possibly do that

 

[Gee Bee]

Jenas confirmed not available

 

[JosephBFC]

Has Jenas said he won’t do it? He was my first guess as who would step in.

Presumably there’s Chapman as well.

 

[WestStandBee]

My sources are telling me that we’re going to get a Garth Crooks solo

 

[hanworthbee]

Isn't it quite normal to be suspended from your job if you spout off on social media and bring the company into disrepute?

 

[Gee Bee]

Well let's see if Richards boycotts anything the BBC does that he appears on like Monday night club etc

Why? It’s about MOTD and Lineker not other jobs. They are all freelance.
