Lee Anderson favourite to replace Gary Lineker on Match of the Day

Controversial Reform MP, 30p Lee Anderson, is to present BBC Match of the Day after regular host Gary Lineker steps down at the end of the season.

The BBC said that in the interest of impartiality, Anderson would take over presenting duties and would be joined in the studio on Saturday evenings by former Home Secretary Suella Braverman and his boss, the professional right-wing gobshite, Nigel Farage.

“We are in no way capitulating in the face of hysterical pressure from the right-wing populists and their press attack dogs,” said BBC executive Simon Williams. 

“It’s just that Gary has been in the news quite over the last couple of years, and once he steps down we need a presenter more in line with the ‘man on the street’. If that man an opportunistic liar who will change teams the moment the grass looks greener.

“It can also be good to shake things up a bit, and Lee is a down-to-earth man-of-the-people type who also happens to hate the same things as lots of other people.

“However, he also knows very little about football, which makes him perfect for the role now that we have decided we don’t care about football knowledge when choosing who should present our flagship football programme.”

Anderson is looking forward to taking over presenting duties on Saturday night.

“I’ll do it my way,” says the Reform MP. 

‘There’ll be none of this left-wing woke analysis you get from Lineker and that lot, praising the tikki-takki football these foreigners play. Real fans want to see the ball hoofed like f**k right up the park and into the mixer like it was in the 70s.

“And if I see any of those pony-tailed foreign ponces rolling about on the floor feigning injury I’ll call it out and Suella will call to have them deported.

“It’s going to become essential Saturday night viewing, and no I won’t tell you how much I’m getting paid.”

I agree with Gary – get your mug here!
