Chug Laguna Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Which was the swear that he sent? I remember shat but that's hardly an expletive - unless it is over there?
Corky Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Did he swear on national TV with children watching? No. Did he insult people? No. He's a huge Leicester fan (and has never hidden his allegience) who is ecstatic his team is doing well. Heaven forbid someone should get carried away in the heat of the moment.
lgfualol Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 I thought this was about Gary Fletcher before I read the article. I thought it might have something to do with those fast food restaurants in Leicester with 0/5 hygiene ratings
Captain... Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 He tweeted fvcking hell one point I'm not surprised it's been picked up on, first caution of his career...
johnny the fox Posted 22 September 2014 Author Posted 22 September 2014 I thought this was about Gary Fletcher before I read the article. I thought it might have something to do with those fast food restaurants in Leicester with 0/5 hygiene ratings GTF only looks "in trouble"..
Manwell Pablo Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 He tweeted fvcking hell one point I'm not surprised it's been picked up on, first caution of his career... Apparently the BBC haven't warned him (yet anyway)
Brainy Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Shat on Utd i'm sure is just him taking the piss out of those who reply to everything he tweets with "shat on...... [whatever he's said Why bloody is a swear word I don't know. ****ing hell fine, but jesus christ.
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Nice to see Her Majesty's Press acting like the moral arbiters of truth and decency... FFS
Jordan Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Have you no decency, Gary?!?! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!
Chug Laguna Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 I don't think that the people who created Twitter could have had the foresight to know that people would use it to air their own personal thoughts.
ousefox Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 What's a warning going to mean to him?! He's nearly untouchable given he is the best sports presenter at the BBC and their 'go to man' for basically anything football and a lot of sport. Gary Lineker @GaryLineker 5m Where in the standard BBC quote @TeleFootball does it say I have or will be warned? Your journo has apologised. https://twitter.com/telefootball/status/514061766222184448 …
EnglishOxide Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 I'm sure our Gary doesn't give the slightest **** on this hungover morning! Bollocks to 'em. It's not often this happens for us.
Captain... Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 I hope this leads to more sweary edition of match of the day, with Gary and co effing and blinding. Savage squeaking away about this player being shit and that goal was fvcking amazing while Neville just calls everyone that has pissed him off in his career a cvnt, and the commentary on the games is done by tourettes sufferers. Now I'd pay to watch that.
PAPA LAZAROU Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 I'm sure our Gary doesn't give the slightest **** on this hungover morning! Bollocks to 'em. It's not often this happens for us. Not often ? it's never happened ! I even swore in front of my forty year old grandson !
Chug Laguna Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Swearing in front of a forty year old, imagine the long term damage
MPH Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Grown man swears during exciting football game shocker.
sylofox Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Not often ? it's never happened ! I even swore in front of my forty year old grandson ! Hang your head in fvcking shame lol
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 People need to get a grip. what's he done wrong!??!!
purpleronnie Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 It's unusual to see the BBC overreacting.
promised land Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Apparently the BBC haven't warned him (yet anyway) They have no right to warn him, it's a personal account nothing to do with the BBC. Maybe they should've looked a bit closer at former employees of the 70's and 80's.
Sir Fynwy Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 It's unusual to see the BBC overreacting. But, as Gary has confirmed on Twitter, the BBC haven't spoken to him about his tweets ever, the story is false and the journo has apologised for it.
VLC86 Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Not often ? it's never happened ! I even swore in front of my forty year old grandson ! I called my granny a cvnt , do I win?
Jakemoore Posted 22 September 2014 Posted 22 September 2014 Wow BBC grow up! He's a huge leicester fan! We were all swearing too!
