You can see why the BBC did everything they could to try and stop salaries being revealed. Shearer is the one that stands out, well they all do, but nearly 500k for doing punditry on MOTD for 9 months of the year, the occasional live game and an international tournament every other year. That’s all he does, punditry. No other presenting roles or anything.
The world cup this summer all these pundits are going, first class flights, accommodation and any additional expense occurred? I personally haven’t bought a tv licence in over 20 years, i’m not going to fund jaunts for these clowns!
I wouldn’t even afford them the title “stars” let alone pay the obscene monies but of course license payers have the privilege of paying the stupid salaries

Gary Lineker always seems to have the same pleased expression on his face that Mo Farah (?) has, one of ‘I still can’t believe my luck, to have got away with this for so long!’
Funny how there’s no comment on these salaries by the Labour Party yet they can’t wait to call out bosses of private companies getting high salaries. Same with the highly paid chief executives of hospitals, councils etc. They used to be called Doctors and Town Clerks and earned a few pounds more than their staff. But of course, it’s all taxpayer money so a bottomless pit !
@@SCOTSMAN. , But the lunacy of it all is even if you don’t watch one second of bbc programs you still have to pay the bbc license, it’s like saying you need to pay for a sky subscription but you only watch freeview
@Dr Will Hamson I'm sorry you are wrong. I have just spent the last ten minutes reading articles about women going to prison for not paying fines for not paying the license. Unless these are a lie but they look legit.
I’ll do it for half that salary? It is Robbery on a vast scale and treated as such. Expecting the Public to pay for a service that is no longer required and no longer fit for purpose is totally ridiculous and if we had a Government that recognised what a major problem this is they may have maintained more support!
Have you ever noticed that the BBC's first instinct is to cut tv channels and/or programmes. Never the untalented, highly paid staff. They must also be unaware that the median average salary for all workers in the UK is £25,971. They also sell publicly funded programmes abroad and the licence fee payer never sees that profit.
Just how stupid are you? The country is effed because big companies do not pay the tax they should to the tune of £1.5billion per year and you think its because of some tv presenter who for some reason you hate their politics. As I say, stupid
Don't worry the British population welcome the wasteful spending by the BBC, and would be happy to pay much more. It's time the BBC were totally defunded
If the BBC didn’t pay him any more, is there any other company who would think he’s worth that much? No I don’t think so, so why is he paid that insane amount?
My 93-year old nan has to pay additional tax now so that that smug, insufferable halfwit Gary Lineker can afford to heat his swimming pool for more weeks of the year.
What surprises me is that nobody ever raises the point that Match of the Day rarely features in the top 60 viewed programmes in the BARB ratings, one of the reasons the the BBC gives for justifying that they Lineker this amount of money is the Match of the Day is one of its flagship programmes, they never say what defines a flagship programme, personally I view would it would be one that topped the raiings. But what do I know, I am just the poor fool who has to shell out the licence fee.
Ask each one of them on the list if they would sign a REAL petition (from a reputable company) making sure OUR government doesn't waste money unnecessarily. Just get them on SOME camera answering that question, EITHER A yes OR A no. Either way they're screwed. 1. response to a NO "I'm sorry, does it take too much effort to sign your name these days for a petition that saves money with no effort needed but signing your name?" That's too hard now? Or a YES. "Great! Sign here, smile for the camera and we will be sure this gets out to the public. Thanks so incredibly much for your effort here today, signing your FULL name." (Salute the chump, he signed) PIP, PIP, CHEERIO! GOD BLESS THE QUEEN. CHIN UP! 💂💂🇬🇧🇮🇴🇲🇸
What a joke, I wouldn't care if it was private but it's tax payers money paying for these ridiculous wages! Most of these people are completely mediocre no marks yet being paid hundreds of thousands a year, complete nonsense, definitely time to end the licence fee, for what they offer its a rip off.
No accountability on expenditure, millions in easy accessed public funds, no business principles and a bunch of greedy cronies at the top. Wonderful example to the population on how they manage THEIR license fee.
The days of these Ridiculously high salaries, Tv presenters, so called celeb Z listers & football players should come to an abrupt end. They work, like everyone else & probably nowhere near as hard. It’s a bloody outrage
if you half their salary, would these presenters threaten to leave? Even so, surely you could get suitable replacements without even noticing ANY difference in view ratings etc.
Yer man that took over the darts and snooker promotion has boosted the sport but ruined the television coverage. All the flickering graphics in between shots. Unwatchable
The BBC pays these fees to stop them from joining Other broadcasters like Sky or ITV. The question should be why are people in the public sector paid less than their equivalents in the private sector?
The bbc is not fit for purpose, it must be the only major broadcaster that doesn't have commercials to pay its way,take it to a vet and have it put down.
WE complain day after day about British Broadcasting Corruption but nothing ever gets done. Every professional body has an independent complaints system except the rotten BBC.
The BBC should grow old gracefully... just like Garry (Golden Loots) Lineker. "Glasses and a highlighted rinse...? Try it, you can thank me later." Said 'THE GREATEST FOOT & BALL SWINDLER'
another thing to look at is when lots are going on strike because they cant live on 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 55, 60, 65,70 thousand pounds a year AND YOU EXPECT PENSIONERS WHO HAVE PAID IN FOR OVER 50 YEARS TO LIVE ON 8 THOUSAND ,,,,,,,,SHAME ON YOU ITS DISGRACFUL
Let’s face the facts if footballers were paid ZERO they would still play football .. yes for nothing ! Just go to a local park and watch them, same as Match if the day people will watch it … you DONT need to pay these pundits like this ! Fresh faces .. please 🙏
Is Gary Lineker worth £1,350,000 of your licence fee?
Not worth the time of day, let alone any money, sickening man!
Absolutely ridiculous
Absolutely not! He shouldn't be on television at all, imo.
Absolutely no.
I wouldn’t pay him in walkers crisps
The BBC should be a subscription model like Netflix or prime. If you want to contribute go ahead
They know if it went to a subscription model they would go broke
RLL FELL OFF I WILL REPLACE HIM!!
Who are these guys, what a load of crap is this show brought to you from Tufton St.
I wonder what they will pay them when the license fee ends? The sooner this happens the better
They are tying to blend it with another tax!

IMHO they’ll put it on the council tax; then they’ll increase the pay of these twats. I hope I’m wrong
What's a license? Is it similar to a licence?
@@Vandal_Savage - fucking moron. You honestly believe the vehemently left wing BBC is run by a Conservative government?
They are overpaying him every single penny he receives

@@mikeoglen6848 The irony of that comment.
The BBC don't pay Lineker that obscene amount of money for talking about football, it's for being the most woke man in the country.

Well they have got away with it !
Yes, they were lucky to become elite in their sport, almost as if they had nothing to do with it.
Probably needs it for all those refugees he's pretending to house.
How many viewers would the BBC lose if Lineker was sacked?
His mum.
So one.
He's black that's why surely!
They'd gain viewers if the black ,big eared Lineker goes.
Exactly

Is it any wonder I stopped paying the licence fee about three years ago?🤬!!
Same here, definitely one of my better decisions. Life's so much better without all that mind sapping propaganda and puerile so called programmes.
Someone really must justify paying football pundits and DJs so much of licence fee payer’s hard earned money or pensions.
NO to financing the BBC through Council Tax.
The way I have utter dislike and contempt for this man holds no bounds.
The government need to take note of this because they have every intention of keeping the licence fee and enforcing it through the courts.
This is what the BBC want you to think.
Gary Lineker knows which side of his BBC bread the butter is on and acts accordingly he knows what they expect of him provides it.
They are all overpaid it needs to stop
This is also part of the reason this country is effed financially!
Just how stupid are you? The country is effed because big companies do not pay the tax they should to the tune of £1.5billion per year and you think its because of some tv presenter who for some reason you hate their politics. As I say, stupid

Very little on BBC worth watching these days.
Don't worry, if Gary was overpaid by 1M, as an honourable man he will quickly pay it back.
My 93-year old nan has to pay additional tax now so that that smug, insufferable halfwit Gary Lineker can afford to heat his swimming pool for more weeks of the year.
Is it my human right not to be made to pay for something that I don't want or need (TV licence).
Lineker only works during the football season. Doesn't do all Match of the Day programs. Only works 78 hours per year. Lovely jumbly.
@b gg make every one else pay look like nothing.
He is totally not worth it. the only way t stop this is to stop paying the tv licence
Totally agree but he doesn’t just turn up as the show is starting , he’ll be working before the show . Probably 80 hours then ahahahah
Alex belfield has been pointing this out and ends up being compared to Jimmy saville and in court?!
Only in court ? Luxury ! Tommy Robinson told a few truths and wound up in jail.
Lineker get’s this money for punditry and for having a point of view on every other subject that’s happening in the world
Whose listening
And he just spouts a load of rubbish.
Licence payers hard earned dosh squandered by the irresponsible, pinstripe gangsters at the BBC.
Is that the same Gary Lineker the man of colour..😂😂😂
If you want to know about Lineker, you should put "Gary Lineker Brass Eye" into the UA-cam search box. They did him up like a kipper.
It's not the BBC money it's the tax payers

I think they're paying Lineker £1.3M too much!
They overpaid him on the full amount! He’s crap at his job🤣🤣🤣
Keep the reteric going so BBC licence fee disappears for good
LBC is the new BBC apparently. They seem to paying the ship jumpers even more...
Exactly what we have said all along. They are overpaying him by over £1m a year
And yet so many people will not even countenance cancelling their licence. I did it 3 years ago. Never been contacted or written to. Just do it.
American,s are shocked when you tell them that we have to pay a license to watch British television 😡
Have you seen tv in the USA ads every 3 seconds
Unbelievable ! They are taking the piss !
Hes been getting overpaid for years
The sickening greed of the bbc and it's employees is truly nauseating.
Overpaid by £1million a year
They think the license payers are fools.
Absolutely disgusting amount , not one of these people are worth a fraction of the amount they are payed
These salaries are a disgrace. I will never watch the BBC. Mind you, I live abroad.
I wish he would stick with he crisp ads. Gary Leaker has no talent. BBC please dismiss him because he is old and that is what the BBC does. Right?
Surely Gary could do a one man minstrel show without offending anyone
Ha ha! The Gary White Mistral Show!
Minstrel
Auto correct Arrrr!
Gary lineker is very opinionated but not were his wage is concerned, pay for the dingy migrants, OVERPAID AND OVER RATED

This is the market rate, sky and ITV are paying there "top" pundits and main presenters the same.
As far as I’m concerned that Lineker twonk got overpaid the entire amount he got.
As overpaid as Lineker is, Zoe Ball is worse. She lost millions of viewers we she took over from Chris Evans then got a huge pay rise
Don't be jealous here if Talk Talk isn't paying enough! Linekar achieved something very few journalist's achieve.

I stopped my TV license. Take me to court
They can pay him what they want ..Problem is if We don't chip in We can lose our Liberty.
I believe BBC studios actually makes a huge profit. We like and respect the BBC about as much as the house of commons.
That list doesnt include the really huge salaries the directors are getting.
They have being doing this since he joined the BBC do not pay for a Licence save yourself money and put these high earners on the Dole
Pay him what he's worth 150 quid a week, and thats being generous.
That would be £1M per year!

How about councils that pay staff over the scale, like fkin social workers
You cant blame them if i was offered any of these gross over payments i would accept wouldnt you
1.3 mil a year for saying a few words on match if the day. If you pay the licence fee you are an idiot. Don’t pay!
It’s extortionate,nobody and I mean nobody is worth those kind of wages,he’s laughing all the way to the bank,disgusting
Cancel, don't pay for this crap!!
Yer man that took over the darts and snooker promotion has boosted the sport but ruined the television coverage. All the flickering graphics in between shots. Unwatchable
Cancel MOTD, give the saved money towards the over 75s licence fees and put the football highlights on the BBCs UA-cam channel.
They are civil servants, full stop !!!!!
They're not paying them from my money
1 million
He owes the country a lot more than that
But for his goals let it go
Call it even now Gary F… OFF
Thank god I cancelled my licence. I wouldn't watch BBC if you paid me linekers wage.
