In his best Foxholer Typing voice, If you are going to diss the bloke at least spell his name properly.

slight over reaction possibly there, what has he ever done to deserve that tirade, 48 goals for England, never booked or sent off, or is it that he is minted and has a nice lifestyle and a cracking looking Mrs?:blah:

NO same as some on here dont like CLARKSON who if everyone was honest they think a lot of what he says and thinks is ok,as opposed to the self righteous cheated on my wife disliked by a lot of his counterparts LINEKER,could not care less about his money or wife met him a few times and on each occasion he was a to**er to everyone around him.
 
I can't see how there can be any kind of resolution now that a senior BBC executive has compared supporters of Jeremy Clarkson to those that "turned a blind eye to Savile's appalling crimes".

Whether you like Clarkson or not it seems a bit extreme to be comparing the situation with a prolific paedophile.

And I apologise for posting a link to the Daily Mail.
 
Surprised to hear Jonnathan Ross on standby duty for Radio 2 Steve Wright Show.
How long has it been since the Andrew Sachs debacle?

Perhaps there is hope for a Clarkson return in 5 years on BBC4
 
JR has done the show before. When any scandal breaks, in showbiz or politics, the best thing to do is take your medicine, accept your guilt, say sorry, shut up and disappear. Within 12-18 months people will have either forgotten or forgiven whatever it was that you did and you can gently be re-introduced. Plenty of examples. Worst thing you can do is make a fuss or let it drag on.
 
Few reports suggesting that he may get the sack today. Probably just paper talk but a lot of them saying it.

It's the right thing to do.
 
The BBC have no choice but to get rid of him, that's been the situation since the whole thing started. It's just been a matter of going through the necessary process.

Surely the "right thing to do" is for them to look at the evidence and then make a decision. From the beginning the story has been changing. First it was reported that he'd punched the guy, then that he'd swung a punch but missed and then that he'd just shouted and sworn at him. Depending on which, if any, of those are true would affect if Clarkson gets sacked.

If either of the first two are true then he has to be sacked. The third option wouldn't necessarily get him sacked. Or it might have been none of the above.

Which is what they've been doing I'd imagine?
