The BBC has been forced to pull its Saturday midday sport show Football Focus after the stars said they would not take to the air until the Gary Lineker row has been resolved. Alex Scoptt and Kelly Somers are both reported to have declined to take part in the weekly show, reports The Sun.
A source quoted by The Sun said: "Alex fully supports Gary and last night decided she would not host Football Focus to show her support for him.
"Kelly has been brought in to replace her for the episode. Alex was in Media City in Manchester preparing for the show yesterday but after seeing the news play out said she did not feel comfortable."
