He's hugely overpaid for what he does - certainly for a public service broadcaster.
Don't tell me Dan Walker couldn't do the job just as well for a sixth of the wages.
Then Lineker can concentrate on his BT Sport gig, hugging refugees and selling salty snacks to obese kids.
Yeah, I would say Andy Gray and Richard Keys were more integral to Sky than Lineker is to BBC, and Sky moved on after they threw the pair of them under the bus. So yes, I don't mind the guy, but you're right, he is overpaid.
