Gary Linekar Hignfy

[Caribeing]

Gary Linekar host of this weeks HIGNF was very good, witty and as usual the show was really enjoyable. Andy Hamilton guesting was very funny, Ian Hislop and Paul Merton are always brilliant!

I enjoyed it, too. Andy Hamilton is always very funny.

Lineker

He was good on 'they think it's all over' so I'm not surprised. (haven't seen it yet)

I am not a fan of football pundits in general but I thought GL was pretty good and held his own, overall well worth watching imo.

In the very unlikely event that those FIFA officials accused of wrong doing are found to have done nothing wrong – the BBC could find themselves facing significant law suits based on what was said during the program.

Talbot,
Are you sure he was on that, its been off the air for years, thought he would have been to young?

[Sipowicz]

Yes, he was a regular.

Clarion...you asked him about Alan Hansen didn't you?

[Canary42]

I bet you're good fun at a party Hymie ;-)

[-Talbot-]

Well you should have asked him about Hansen too.

It might be Open Season on FIFA, but it would not surprise me if their lawyers are poring over media coverage from any organisation which could be worth suing.

I think that the Beeb should make use of Linekar far more than it does at present. I always enjoy it when he is on. He seems a very genuine bloke to me....the bloke next door perhaps ! A nice man.

[hc4361]

Hymie, I'm sure the BBC lawyers check everything said on HIGNFY very closely before allowing the show to be broadcast.

I think they will be too busy for watching telly and reading newspapers looking for more trouble.
