THE BBC has reportedly been forced to cancel another one of its football programmes after its presenters refused to go on air in solidarity with Gary Lineker.
Presenter and former England international Alex Scott tweeted that it "doesn't feel right" to present Football Focus today.
She said: “I made a decision last night that even though I love my show and we have had an incredible week winning an SJA for football focus that it doesn’t feel right for me to go ahead with the show today.. Hopefully I will be back in the chair next week….”
Fellow presenter Kelly Somers also took to social media to announce that she would not be appearing on the programme.
She tweeted: “Just to confirm I won’t be on BBC television today.”
It is believed that today's programme has now been cancelled.
Tonight's episode of Match of the Day is still scheduled to go ahead, despite having no presenter, pundits, commentators or interviews with players and managers.
