Gary Lineker does not sugar-coat anything.
This weekend is one those increasingly-rare weekends where most of the top teams are playing on a Saturday – there are eight Premier League fixtures today, with Super Sunday consisting of just Brighton v Newcastle.
This means one thing in particular – a packed edition of Match Of The Day. And this one something Gary Lineker was quick to point out on Twitter:
Match of the Day looks good tonight with all of the title contenders in action.

Arsenal fans were quick to point out that he’d seemed to have forgotten that the Gunners host West Brom on Monday night.
Arsenal don’t play til Monday G

Lineker’s response was golden.
Indeed 😉 https://t.co/5o7MMvjNgp

Brutal.
Oops, just realised one of the contenders don't play today. Apologies to all @NUFC fans.

Is there any chance of this coming back to haunt him?
