Public money would be better spent elsewhere.

Feel sorry for Radio Nottingham and the like who do a good job but have their budgets squeezed to pay massively inflated wages for millionaires like Lineker, Shearer etc, who are easily replaceable. Having a great career on the pitch doesn't make you anything special off it. Massive egos the lot of them and a sense of self importance.

I can't even remember the last time I watched MOTD, It's The Plastic Prem and holds no interest for me. Given all the assets they have available, you would think the Beeb would have thrown a sub on? But as you say, UTM, possibly contractual issues.
