    I've heard that he was allegedly a maniac for going round touching up women and having affairs all over the BBC. Very few women liked to work with him. :eek:

    really?? i must admit i've never heard anything bad about him until Barton spouted off on twitter but i took that with a pinch of salt as i do with Barton's tweets,
    As for Gary leaving twitter-has he?? i haven't noticed!:o:D

    The cynic in me wonders if some big scandal is about to break, but i don't actually know anything.

    thought has crossed my mind too, Sunday papers imminent:eek:
    Maybe he just got bored with it all or really is some personal private thing (if so the son didn't seem to know)

    If a story was going to appear in the papers why would that require him to leave twitter? Doesn't quite make sense unless the story is regarding something he has done via twitter.

    Depends what the story was, I can think of a few examples where leaving twitter would seem a sensible idea. Saying that I know nothing about Gary's reason for leaving

    Gary Lineker is known for his 'octopus' impressions in amongst make-up ladies.

    Shame, i'll never forget Christmas, and him forgetting to switch oven on, to cook Turkey, actually made headline news. I was :D

    Piers Morgan claims he knows the reason and it's neither sinister or related to trolls.

    i got the impression it may have been something to do with what he discovered through filming WDYTYA.

    Troll activity toward his son was a while ago and his handy behaviour has been going unreported for years.

    What on earth could he have found out that would have made him ashamed enough to close his Twitter account?

    His brother's a crook, never mind any he has amongst his ancestors.

    He is still on twitter but his tweets are protected.

    Actually just looked again and his tweets are public but all his followers have gone except for 2.

    Maybe I'm naive, but his reasons seem good enough. I know a fair few people are leaving FB for the same reason.

    You're undoubtedly looking at a spoof account. He's gone.

    I can't imagine any scandal about to hit the press as he is Mr Super Injunction. But if he's having a hard time and needs to quit twitter then good. The man is a creep of the very first order and rumours about him are rife. Hiding behind his kids illness all those years ago was very low. He has obviously silenced his first wife because we've never heard a word from her and the latest one has been quiet for a while now. He makes my flesh crawl!

    Yeah I've heard that he has good lawyers & as soon as theres a hint of a story he swings into action.
