Gary Lineker has broken his silence on the decision for him to be taken off Match of the Day presenting duties - saying that the decision was the BBC's and not his.
A spokesperson for the BBC confirmed on Friday that Lineker would not be presenting the football highlights show until an agreement has been made regarding "his future use of social media", following remarks he made about UK immigration.
Fellow pundits Alan Shearer and Ian Wright have since both confirmed that they will not be appearing on the show this Saturday in support of their colleague.
