More quotes by Gary Lineker
I'm disappearing from twitter for a while. Need a break from the bile. Local prejudice just seems to bring out the worst in some people.
Gary Lineker
The whole kiss-and-tell thing is a negative approach that often happens in a World Cup. We will see negative stories about the players and it can affect their confidence and the overall performance of the national team on the pitch, let alone the bid to actually stage the competition.
Gary Lineker
A handball is when your hand touches the ball.
Gary Lineker
Chris Hughton has been sacked by Norwich. Now? With 5 games to go? Utterly bonkers!
Gary Lineker
You can never really justify wages in the entertainment business, but it is what it is.
Gary Lineker
Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win.
Gary Lineker
I wouldn't want to go out six nights a week and watch somebody's reserves playing to check out a footballer to see if we're going to buy him.
Gary Lineker
My wife Danielle and I love travelling, different cultures and good weather.
Gary Lineker
I was quite good at football once, although other than that my speciality would be maths. I'm great at sudokus and find all the spin-off games pretty easy too.
Gary Lineker
Every act of kindness is potent and lingers long in the heart of the recipient.
Gary Lineker
I've only got a Saturday job so my weekdays are generally pretty free.
Gary Lineker
When you're winning games, everyone thinks everything the manager says and does is fantastic. Then it goes the other way, and those earlier criticisms of players can backfire.
Gary Lineker
I was only interested in scoring goals. I wasn't interested in anything else.
Gary Lineker
I know I could never be in a pop band. I honestly have an appalling voice.
Gary Lineker
Congratulations to Thierry Henry on a truly wonderful career. One of the great footballers of our time and a top bloke. Bonne chance.
Gary Lineker
We have got too many kids around the house to have a romantic meal at home. But Danielle is a fantastic cook. She does a brilliant lasagne, great roasts and a great chilli dish. She knows the way to my heart.
Gary Lineker
I try to avoid saying 'fantastic' too often and 'obviously' is a dangerous word for all broadcasters.
Gary Lineker
Soccer is a game for 22 people that run around, play the ball, and one referee who makes a slew of mistakes, and in the end Germany always wins.
Gary Lineker
There's no in between-you're either good or bad. We were in between.
Gary Lineker
I am not leaving twitter. If the mindless few defeat the thoughtful majority we are all doomed.
