MotD

[BEEcool]

Get Sammy Saunders on there. Or failing that, Alan Cockram ?

 

[JCMcBee]

.....one old boys network takes on another eh.

 

[sonofabee]

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

Difficult one for anyone to take now that big names are "boycotting" appearing on it. They'd now be strikebreaking...

Agree

 

[Downbeat Bee]

I was going to ask if Eddie Hitchinson is free tomorrow night but the Shilton post above is much better.

 

[Judio1999]

They could show just the action instead ???

 

[BFC1997]

Get Jeremy Clarkson to present it IMO

 

[Banana]

Can I just say that I am also NOT presenting Match of the Day this weekend.

 

[Ace Face]

Brilliant stuff from the BBC better than any own goal on MOTD.

Just when you are getting the hang of presenting too!

It could end up being Giles Brandreth or Alex Jones

 

[BURFORD BEE]

The way things are going the Beeb will be lucky to be presenting the highlights of the World Tiddlywinks championships next year

 

[Banana]

Problem solved

 

[Freebee]

Yeah I’ll swerve it until Lineker is back. This ain’t on

I swerve it anyway

I'm either at the game or have watched the game and i can rewatch the highlights of the days games on youtube if i want to.
I don't really need validation from pundits who base their opinion on watching a 5 min highlight reel and probably can't even name most of our players if pushed.

 

[BFC1997]

Manish? That would be nostalgic

 

[Roman Bee]

gonna be clare balding

 

[NorthamptonBee]

excellent news, my fast forward button needs a break.
Micah Richards for me.
Does anyone really listen to that bit, wait 30 mins and whizz through has been my choice for years?

 

[Banana]

 

[teesbee]

Ironic that on a show that talks balls about a ball game, the BBC have lost their own.

 

[mackers1970]

There’s only one person for the job

 

[alikat]

Every cloud.....

 

[Banana]

Who gonna be the host of The Apprentice next week?

 

[Banana]

Get Jeremy Clarkson to present it IMO

 

[ruislip bee]

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

Don't bring Rebus into this........

The dream has been crushed

Can't show much football due to the contract with the PL. Hence why there are pundits,

 

[Beelieve!]

They could show just the action instead ???

Has to be it seems

 

[BFC1997]

In all seriousness.

Lineker, Shearer, Wright. All strikers from the 90s. All been doing it for years. Not a lineup that inspires.

Would actually be nice to have some new faces and diverse perspectives.

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Has to be Alan Partridge !!!

 

[Beelieve!]

Chapman, jenas, Dublin, Keown, Williams, Logan still in the running

 

[WarrenBee]

I suspect it will be Alex Scott but hope she turns it down

She has, thank God!!

 

[hanworthbee]

It'll have to cancelled or just a highlights show with no presenters anyone who steps in wlll be known as a scab

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Brilliant stuff from the BBC better than any own goal on MOTD.

I have informed the BBC that I won’t be appearing in the MOTD audience tomorrow.

 

[longtimeagobee]

Can’t see it being a freelancer, won’t it need to be a BBC staffer? Having to fulfill their contract as leverage?

 

[TW1Bee]

[TW1Bee]

Does this mean we're on last tomorrow

 

[GP200]

Can't see a queue of people wanting to present MOTD tomorrow.
I think Shearer is also banned after speaking up about Qatari human rights on MOTD World Cup.
I expect it will be Alex Scott.

…………with chief analyst Emma Hayes………..

You mean yours presumably

 

[Untouchable]

I have informed the BBC that I will not be providing any green ticks tomorrow

 

[Hullbee]

Get this all the time in Councils once one person decides they want a sickness holiday suddenly your whole team fancy one as well

 

[DillarBee]

For all the whining about running orders and the constant 'banter', I do think Lineker's enthusiasm for all things football, will be tough to replace.

I think the beeb have shot themselves in the foot on this one.

 

[BFC1997]

You mean yours presumably

What?

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Lineker’s team are preparing to re-hash the autobiography. Working title: “Sunak: my Part in his Downfall”. ?

 

[JosephBFC]

 

[Roman Bee]

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

That is your opinion and it's good you're allowed to express it but that is the whole point.

 

[NorthamptonBee]

I really like her but not for football obviously, an excellent horse racing pundit/presenter.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

There are a few BBC executives now who have completely ruined their Friday evening. ?

 

[BFC1997]

That is your opinion and it's good you're allowed to express it but that is the whole point.

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