I think he's probably right in the fact the BBC are looking to fill quota's rather than go for the best available pundits, that much is fairly obvious. Not that he'd be on that list anyway if they were. He's just a cliche filled bias ex player with very little ability for getting over any real interesting analysis.Not quite retirement. Let go by the BBC and having a little bit of an anti-woke moan . ?
Mark Lawrenson claims BBC dropped him because he is ‘65 and a white male’
The former pundit and co-commentator has claimed he was dropped from the BBC’s football coverage this year because of his age and racewww.theguardian.com
Wet dog.Lawro looks like he smells bad.
Souness’ days are numbered. So unsexy.I’m pretty sure Lauro being an oldish white guy didn’t help his cause. But Souness and Linekar are oldish white guys and are still employed. I think mainly he just isn’t that good to listen to compared to other options who also tick other boxes.

Perfect example of how its nothing to do with "wokeness", or whatever excuse ****s use these days to complain about when they're called out for being ****s. Blokes a dinosaur and is still in a job.I’m pretty sure Lauro being an oldish white guy didn’t help his cause. But Souness and Linekar are oldish white guys and are still employed.

Ironically, Alistair McGowan regularly used to focus on Lauro's apparent dislike of football when he was sending him up over 10 years ago....Always seemed like he genuinely hated football whenever I'd see him talk about a game. Like one of those who have been stuck in a job too long, but have never done anything else so never leave.
