      But Woods had mischievously laid the groundwork to make Agbonlahor stumble into on-air blunder.
      With the breakfast show hosts allocating questions to ask Scott off-air, Woods deliberately prompted Agbonlahor to quiz Scott on her time on Strictly Come Dancing.
      But the ex-midfielder, 36, has never appeared on the BBC show and instead won reality series ‘I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!’
      Unaware he was being misled, Agbonlahor confidently stepped up to ask his question early in the interview about Scott’s life.

      He said: “How did you find it though? Because me and Ally can’t dance but you done very well, didn’t you?
      A baffled Scott replied: “Well there wasn’t a lot of dancing, was there?”
      As Scott continues talking, Woods is not able to contain her composure as Agbonlahor slowly realises he’s been set up.
      The talkSPORT presenter ducks out of the shot as she silently laughs while her sheepish co-host grins and stares.

      She then holds up a sign saying “I’m sorry” while the interview continues.
      After the chat, Woods revealed: “Just before Jill came on, and we always distribute questions [prior to interviews], I said to Gabby, ‘do you know what you can ask Jill, you can ask her about the time she won Strictly Come Dancing’ and [he] went ‘right, okay’ and wrote it down.
      “Of course she’s Queen of the jungle from I’m a celeb!”
      A mortified but amused Agbonlahor replied: “She’s probably thinking, I didn’t dance in the jungle.” More

      “No word of a lie, from the top all the way down. I’ve had to walk through the training ground all the way to my car clinging on for dear life.

      Fans claim Pep Guardiola is trying to turn Haaland into Weghorst after seeing bizarre Man City line-up from BBC

      by

      FANS worried Pep Guardiola was trying to turn Erling Haaland into Wout Weghorst after seeing the BBC version of Manchester City’s formation against Bayern Munich.Goal machine Haaland was shown next to John Stones amid four players behind sole attacker Bernardo Silva for Tuesday’s Champions League quarter-final first leg.

      In the event, the Norwegian poacher did of course feature at the front of City’s attack.
      But even he must have been open-mouthed in admiration at the way Rodri swerved a stunning opener on 27 minutes – his first ever goal in Europe’s top club competition.
      Online observers, however, were bewildered by Haaland’s tactical role, based on the Beeb’s graphics, which suggested he might play a deeper role like Manchester United’s under-fire Weghorst.
      One fan said: “#Pep seen #Weghorst playing in the hole and thinks I can’t be outdone by Sir #TenHag – I know let’s try #Haaland and #Stones as a centre midfield pairing with license to go forwards protected by #Rodri and #Ilkay.”

      Another posted: “What is BBC cooking!? Gündogan DM, Haaland and Stones as number 10s and Bernardo Silva as a number 9.”
      A third wrote: “Has BBC Sport got this right? I know Stones has been playing more advanced lately, but next to Haaland with Silva as lone striker?”
      And a fourth stated: “BBC Sport reckon Stones and Haaland are playing midfield just in behind Bernardo Silva tonight.”
      Etihad chief Guardiola has shaken his tactics up in recent months.

      One fan spotted the BBC’s lineup
      The main difference is England centre-back Stones generally playing as one of two holding midfielders in front of a three-man defence.
      But he can drop to right-back to make a rearguard of four players when City are on the defensive.
      In front of the banks of three and two come four more creative midfielders, chiefly Bernardo Silva, stylist Kevin De Bruyne and bang-in-form Jack Grealish.
      That leaves Haaland in the position no-one doubts he’s best at – centre-forward.
      But it was Rodri’s long-range breakthrough that ignited fans most on social media.
      One said: “There’s no stopping those!” and another raved: “What a goal!” More

      Why isn’t Gary Lineker presenting Match of the Day?

      But that issue was resolved after a fan backlash over the Beeb’s decision to axe the presenter.
      Upon reaching a deal, BBC Director General Tim Davie said: “Gary is a valued part of the BBC and I know how much the BBC means to Gary, and I look forward to him presenting our coverage this coming weekend.”
      And that agreement may leave some even more surprised that he is not presenting this evening’s show.
      So what, exactly, has happened?

      Why isn’t Gary Lineker presenting Match of the Day?
      Gary Lineker has been very up front about his reasons for missing MOTD this evening.
      And fans have no reason to be worried that he will be off-air for the long run.
      Lineker tweeted earlier today: “Just so there’s no misunderstanding, I won’t be doing @BBCMOTD tonight.
      “I’m not suspended, just on holiday. Back next week. 😂👍🏻”

      Why was Gary Lineker suspended before?
      Gary Lineker was suspended because the BBC ruled that a tweet he posted about Home Secretary Suella Braverman broke impartiality rules.
      He responded to a video of her setting out the Government’s Migration Bill, labelling the language being used similar to 1930s Germany.
      Lineker tweeted: “This is just an immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the ’30s, and I’m out of order?”
      However, the BBC agreed to review its social media guidelines for presenters who aren’t covering current affairs.
      And they allowed Lineker to return to air so long as he agrees to follow the current rules while the new ones are being drawn up. More

      Gary Lineker reveals reason why he missed Match of the Day, three weeks after BBC row

      by

      Lineker criticised the Government’s treatment of refugees and likened Home Secretary Suella Braverman’s language to that used in 1930s Germany.
      But he reassured viewers that he has not been suspended again, and is simply on holiday.
      Taking to Twitter, Lineker wrote: “Just so there’s no misunderstanding, I won’t be doing @BBCMOTD tonight.
      “I’m not suspended, just on holiday. Back next week. 😂👍🏻”

      Following his previous suspension, Lineker’s BBC Sport colleagues rallied around him and refused to participate in broadcasts until his reinstatement.
      The 62-year-old returned for the Beeb’s FA Cup coverage the following weekend, before having to miss another broadcast due to being unwell.
      Earlier this week, Lineker won a £4.9million tax battle.
      HMRC had claimed he should have been classed as an employee of the BBC and BT Sport for presenting duties, rather than as a freelancer.

      The taxman pursued him for £4.9million it said was owed on his income between 2013 and 2018.
      But Lineker insisted all taxes were paid on the income via a partnership set up in 2012 with then-wife Danielle Bux.
      Legislation called IR35 tackles tax avoidance by so-called disguised employees, who charge for services via limited firms.
      But tribunal judge John Brooks found that because Lineker had direct contracts with both the BBC and BT Sport, IR35 did not apply in this case. More
