There will be no player interviews on Match of the Day today after Gary Lineker was taken off air and fellow pundits, hosts and commentators walked out in solidarity.
A spokesman for the Professional Footballers’ Association said: “We have been informed that players involved in today’s games will not be asked to participate in interviews with Match Of The Day.
“The PFA have been speaking to members who wanted to take a collective position and to be able to show their support for those who have chosen not to be part of tonight’s programme.
