his client’s £1.8m BBC salary, Jon Holmes, gary Lineker’s agent, reveals that the Beeb isn’t the worst gender offender. ‘i represented a female sports presenter who was told by a broadcaster she would never present football, and to make sure she got a good job before her looks went,’ said Holmes. The sexist tale might sound familiar to gabby Logan, whose 2006 defection to the BBC was masterminded by Holmes, after iTV replaced her with Steve Rider as its top football presenter.
