Did you see the top ten list of BBC highest paid ? Lauren Laverne 400k. Zoe Ball 1.3M
Mental stuff
I bet it pisses a load of folk right off that he’s actually walked the walk and taken in a refugee and had his salary cut.
Usually the one go to retort folk have for celebs is “aye well what are you dain tae help”, and that’s that gone down the shitter.
I dont know why refugees are brought in to this? Fact is he is being paid an obscene amount of money to present a show even with that cut!Haha guy takes a pay cut, still people not happy.
Guy takes a refugee into his gaff, still not happy.
No one will ever be happy eh!
Lineker earns about at least 900k too much. However that pales into insignificance when you compare Gareth Bale's pay packet of 500k per week just to sit on Real Madrid's bench! He probably won't take much of a pay cut if he goes to Spurs or Man Utd etc.
I love Rangers and football in general and always have but that amount of money in a paypack is just downright disgusting in the present day world or at any time. If it wasn't for Rangers, I would be questioning my interest and commitment to football.
James Richardson is also a bit of a lefty luvvie wank, however as a TV presenter he is far superior and far more likeable.I bet James Richardson would do it for a fraction of the salary and do an excellent job.
Ridiculous what some people are paid at the BBC, especially sports presenters. The majority watch for the coverage, some for the analysis, not many for a guy to present it.
It is hardly a massive gesture when you are still the highest paid in the place and have money flowing in from other sources.
Great shout, both very good IMO.I get that their is a “pay peanuts and you’ll get monkeys” argument, but does Lineker really offer a standard of sports broadcasting significantly higher than someone like Mark Chapman or Manish Bhasin? Both those guys would do his job for a fraction of the salary as well I would bet.
She still can’t walk properlyEvery time I hear the name Zoe Ball I think of the classic thread when the Baron told of his exploits when he met the bold Zoe & ended back in her hotel room & fckd her up the Ronson . One of the best threads of all time.
But he is still the BBC's highest presenter on around £1.3m a year , value for money ?
Not !
