Gary Lineker caught short

Mind you, I reckon most of us, given the chance, would talk the hind legs off a donkey if we were asked our opinion on just about anything, including our early life.

He's done a few tweets expressing sympathy with refugees, which the MSM hates as it undermines their agenda of whipping up hatred against migrants

He’s not just expressed sympathy with refugees he’s actually got two living with him. Imagine the MSMs thoughts on that

Did you listen to what he said?
He said he was called racist names , it doesn’t surprise me as I had two dark skinned friends and they both were called paki during school years (early 80s)


All he did was say what happened to him , he didn’t Labour the point, he didn’t say woe is me , he just mentioned it in passing in an interview


But some have an axe to grind against him

I have no axe, never mind one to grind for Lineaker. I was being somewhat provocative as can be my way sometimes.

How does it undermine genuine racism ? Isn’t it a good thing to undermine racism.
Surely you mean undermine efforts to tackle racism ?

For someone who rallies against MSM , you haven’t noticed it was a tiny comment in an interview that was picked up by the Mail for their own agenda. He also said he was small and geeky but the headline wasn’t about geekism or sizeism, he didn’t say he had suffered in his career, he was talking about how sport changed his life and he was bullied for being small, geeky and had racist remarks as a kid, something I could easily believe given his age.

The people that are pissed off , why are they pissed off ? What does his wealth have to do with anything?

You aren’t daft Tiff, think about it.

He is doing what he has done for years, gesturing for likes and trying to be the ‘good lad’. Probably got Ukraine Flags and f*** knows what else on his profile to show he supports the latest cause that the MSM feeds the thick twat.

He hasnt suffered real racism. He is a privileged rich white footballer. End of.

Blame the Daily Mail. They wrote and published it.

It's a perfect way for the Daily Mail to decry racism, by suggesting that absolutely anyone who's said they've been racially abused might just be feeling 'touchy'. This vile rag has for decades pedalled xenophobia and insidious racism and has a lot to answer for about why this country's in the shocking state it is. Its readers thrive on the division it consistently pushes.

I have a friend who reads the Mail every day and I'm sure a lot of the stuff he comes out with is verbatim off the front page.

Mind you, he's a Mason, too, so it might be stuff they chat about at the Lodge.

I don't get Lineker at all. If he was as good at football and cricket as he claimed

I can't be bothered to respond to the other stuff on here - but I just have to say this comment was really funny, if only there was some way to find out if he was as good at football as he claimed...but I guess we'll never know lol

(Because this is the internet I just want to point out I'm kidding rather than being a dick to you!)

Guess you must be about as bored as I am at the moment.

To be fair they all do don’t they Cortez?

I don’t endorse the views of any particular media outlet because it’s perfectly clear they are all peddling a particular agenda.
I‘m bored shitless of it all.

Linekar is the Bono of football. But at least Bono put some effort in and got himself into some dangerous situations to promote his ‘right on’ views.

I’d like Linekar go to Ethiopia and report on the civil war, or maybe visit the Congo and tell us all about Cobalt mining is modern slavery and we should boycott buying smartphones.
But he’s not going to do anything like that is he. He’s just going to carry on preaching on the internet.

I can just picture the disgust on the face of @congo_red when he’s just about to tuck into an IPA and Gary Lineker comes knocking on his front door?
