Will Gary Lineker be presenting Motd on Saturday?

Attacking is one thing, leaping to the defence of quite another. Maybe she had the libel lawyers in her earpiece.

Given that she had been well pre prepped for that come back about Johnson snr as he was in the news, she could have practised to deliver the 'facts' in a less chirppy lilting and thus appeasing tone

Is Gary Glitter the worst ambassador for a name that there has ever been?

Even when we were kids, way before he was known as a nonce, his name was rhyming slang for 'shitter'.

"Where's Dave gone?" ... "He's in the Gary"; or one might be told "stick it up yer Gary" after making an unpopular suggestion.

Even Adolph seems to have made something of a revival (Dolph is a diminutive of Adolph) but Gary seems to be truly on the wane.

Fair point.

All the real Garys must be proper pissed-off that their name has been mortally denigrated by a nonce called Paul.

Gary Oldfield the musician is famous for a medical condition that was so unique he is believed to have been the only person known to have had it in the world. It's a condition that sees the presence of cellular cannula-deformity resulting in the tunnelling of the tissue fibres in the body.
His well known concept album 'Tubular Balls' highlights his struggle with the disease.

Even if his name was Gary, not Mike, the punchline would still not be worth the houses you had to go round to get there.

Gary Ablett. Which brings us full circle back to footballers.

I know, I didn’t think it needed pointing out

Fuck knows why quoting his post in an agreeable manner amounted to ‘treading’ on it.

He might arrive at the Dock10 studios at MediaCityUK in Salford like this...
It's not a small boat though...

The tweet in question included 'Your a mug' and ' You should be burned at the stake' , delightful..

Easy to get him mixed up with Mike Oldman.

All this Gary talk reminds that G Numan is in fact 13 days older than G Oldman.

There seem to be a lot of Garys of roughly that age, including Kemp and Lineker himself, but now the name has fallen out of favour. I wonder which year was peak Gary.

Annus Garybilis?

Sadly the Australian cricketer passed away a few years ago...

So did Gary Gilmore.
