Did he? Evidence? Did you miss everything he said about them hosting the WC? Oh ok , that makes it ok then does it ? I’m also assuming then as he’s such a ruddy good humanitarian that he did the broadcasting from Qatar from the good of his heart and didn’t accept a wage from them ? Give over 😂 But you don’t care about human rights , so why would you be upset if Lineker did or didn’t speak up ? He did by the way. |

Give over 😂 We clearly aren't going to agree, so each one to his/her own. |

"Gary Lineker, an outspoken critic of the Qatar World Cup, pocketed £1.6 million while working for the Gulf state's sports broadcaster." Two faced or what? You just like a good argument about anything. You and I know we both frequently clash and I'm not going to get into another pointless exchange with you. I know where I stand. |

I’m not upset by anything my friend , just pointing to a fact that lineker happily lined his pockets in Qatar. |

Anyway…… back to the footie ! Plymouth are going to blow it aren’t they ! Absolutely, I didn’t watch a single game of the World Cup due to my opinion on the state of affairs over there. Think you might be right about Plymouth !! 😀 |

Proud as always to be a Rovers supporter, but more so today.
It might be a satirical character, but Jonathan Pie has it spot on here. (Apologies to those who have to concentrate for more than two minutes).

I disagree with many of my employer's decisions, however, if I slagged them off on social media I'd expect to be disciplined, especially if I compared my bosses with the most evil regime in history; Lineker and his cronies are happy enough to take tax payer money from the government they should abide by the same standards the rest of us are expected to. The problem is champagne socialists think they're above the normal working person.

The fact you are confusing the two is exactly why many are unhappy as the BBC should not be linked to them, yet those that run the BBC all seem to be!! |

Of course we should all abide by the law but this government don't or didn't!. |

Which is why I would never wish to work for the government, Lineker is happy enough to take their money though. No better than the British hating James McClean being paid in GBP. |

The licence fee which is only enforced by the government? Educate yourself, the BBC is only principally funded through licence fees the rest comes from the taxes of people who go to work. |
