Gary Lineker risks reprimand from the BBC after appearing to share sensitive data of the broadcaster's most streamed programmes Gary Lineker tweeted a photo of iPlayer streaming figures to his 8.8m followers
Gary Lineker has risked a further reprimand from BBC officials after appearing to share the broadcaster's internal data on social media.
The Match of the Day presenter – the corporation's top earner – tweeted a picture of iPlayer streaming figures to his 8.8 million followers, giving details of the BBC's most streamed programmes and customer viewing habits.
It showed that September 16's episode of the Saturday night football highlights show received more than two million streaming requests, ahead of five different half-hour episodes of soap EastEnders.
The Strictly Come Dancing series launch, which attracted nearly 1.8 million streaming requests, and three further EastEnders episodes completed the top ten.
Lineker, 62, gloated: 'We're top of the IPL... @bbciplayer league.' But social media users said the former England striker could be in hot water for sharing internal BBC data, which differs from the BARB viewing figures that are routinely made public.

When the fuck are they getting shut of Gug Ears, he's well past his sell-by date, even Walkers crisps have dropped the tosser.

Well for most of us it was wishful thinking. No. For a small minority it was wishful thinking. Most of us think he's good at his job, thoroughly nice and perfectly entitled to voice his opinions on social media. |

If he want's to become a mouth piece for the lefties then he needs to give up the day job and go in to politics, if not he needs to STFU, we no more want to hear politicians being football pundits, stick to the job you are paid to do. |

So have you given up your day job to become a right wing mouthpiece? Or do you think you are perfectly entitled to your opinions in your own time on social media? |

BBC rules on social media usage which apply to staff whether they are using online platforms professionally or personally says: "BBC employees should not express a personal opinion on matters of public policy, politics, or controversial subjects and must not bring the BBC into disrepute or criticise colleagues in public, and must avoid bias through follows, likes, retweets or other forms of sharing". Of course these rules don't apply to left wing Lineker who says what he likes because the BBC are frightened of him. |

That's why the BBC gave him his job back. He had not broken any BBC rules. |

I'm not in the public eye, or influential, unfortunately Jug Ears is, and just for the record I don't want any one including the right using their status as a platform to spout politics, we have the soaps that have stuck to that gold rule and it works well, Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Eastenders, no one is saying they aren't entitled to their political preferences, it's everyone democratic right, but they should not use that preference to promote it. |

So Neil Oliver shouldn't have used the fame he received working for the BBC to promote his increasingly unhinged opinions?
