Have you ever heard him witter on as a co commentator? He never shuts up, ruins a game you are trying to listen to.I thought the same thing. That said I don't watch the one show and I skip through the pundit section on MOTD. There are a lot of pundits, I think talk rubbish but never had any real feelings about Jenas, positive or negative.
I think the whole football world dislikes him. This isn’t a Caf thing. His thread had 49 pages alone BEFORE his sacking. Says it all.Caf loves a fall from grace.
Give your head a wobble.Sad news. Some of you lot celebrating his demise should give your head a wobble. I happen to think he's a great pundit and more importantly, a top bloke.
Well said and he’s such a smarmy git.Always seemed to have a snarky side to him and i hated his commentary style and so did his co pundits
Shit player as well
Do you not remember Michael Owen andWhat he do? Can a bland person send a raunchy text?

It's a strange one. Because I know what you mean, he seems like a milquetoast kind of character. I even quite liked him at first.Unsure why people dislike Jermaine Jenas so much here, he's not really a person I take much notice of.
These allegations are of course another matter entirely, but prior to this, he's just been a generally beige personality, so unsure why he evokes such a strong reaction.

Whoever picks up them will be loving life. Jenas got so much work for being mediocre, so can only imagine how good they are at selling their clients.So his management team (MC Saatchi) is running away from him, apparently.

Going well then.
I can see this happening for sure. Tom Cleverly is another similar type, hopefully his coaching career works out but if it doesn't then that's surely a possibilityLingard will replace him at some point. The television loves them. The mediocre players who are good at social media, keeping their images and stuffs.
Over promoted beyond any apparent ability, and most men are inherently suspicious of other men who align themselves as "feminist allies" etc. as we all know they're more than likely to be the kind of wronguns who would take advantage of a woman given half the chance. Sadly women don't seem to have worked this out yet.Unsure why people dislike Jermaine Jenas so much here, he's not really a person I take much notice of.
Indeed. Richardson is fantastic and should be on far more media shows. Been brilliant since Gazetta Football Italia.The fact this complete chancer has gotten so many jobs whilst James Richardson is basically ignored by the main stream football world is baffling to me.

Him on that was about the best football punditry we've had in the country. Not sure why he never got into the mainstream.Indeed. Richardson is fantastic and should be on far more media shows. Been brilliant since Gazetta Football Italia.
Wasn’t he supposed to be succeeding Lineker when Gary eventually calls it a day?
Never nice to see someone get fired but glad I won’t have to hear this guys voice on my tv again.
I always figured that being on the One show was an easy and friendly way for him to get better at presenting so he could then handle being the MOTD presenter.This was just reported by one shite newspaper, I don't think it was ever likely to happen.
I have, though I think my problem is that I have so many pundits/commentators I'm not a fan ofHave you ever heard him witter on as a co commentator? He never shuts up, ruins a game you are trying to listen to.
What ever he’s alleged to have done must have been bad if the BBC have fired him.
Good riddance I say MOD might be safe to watch again, well they just have to get rid of Lineker now,
Yeah I loved it, between that and watching United every week it started my love affair of football. Probably why I've always had a soft spot for some Italian teams.Him on that was about the best football punditry we've had in the country. Not sure why he never got into the mainstream.
Also Football Italia was on in the 1990s. I remember it getting record viewing figures when Diana died and the other channels blanket covered it.

However I've grown to have an intense dislike of him in part because he's needlessly attacking Man Utd all the time. I feel that way about a lot of MOTD figures to be fair, Shearer and Lineker and Micah can't hide their shilling for the oil states, they take the coin and dance. But even this morning on Talksport he was apparently suggesting Ten Hag should be sacked by Christmas (???)
Well, looks like you didn't even make it to the end of the transfer window, Jenas.
He has been, and most definitely was, a beige personality. I think that is what drew so much ire, especially when it seemed he was being lined up as the next leading face of BBC football. In reality, he is (was) no more offensive or charismatic than a Michael Owen, but was positioned as some sort of groundbreaking new voice of youth culture, despite always seeming about 40 years old and being as on the pulse as a music ϟ band t-shirt.

He was arrogant for no apparent reason. He spoke as if he had a career of Zidane. Took himself way too seriously and just comes across as very unlikeable
His weird push by BBC and TNT to be on everything is also ridiculous. He is not funny, he is not a good host of anything and has nothing of note to say
Thanks all. Gives me some context, but still intriguing as this sort of undeserved good fortune applies to a good few modern day "celebrities" though, doesn't it?
The anti-United point is another that can be levelled at most pundits (including ours!). There's nothing that seems to really stand out with him to warrant evoking much of a reaction.
It's just odd to me that the man has 54 pages on the Caf, as I find him rather inconsequential, and he's just not someone I was aware people took much notice of.
Well, I've seen people write that if the BBC bothered to guage social media, they should have easily seen that he was intensely disliked. Maybe his effect on people factored into their thinking in hiring him in the first place!
I genuinely think I could quote it word for word at this point, with all the mannerisms.Oh dear.
What a massive, and I must emphasise, massive, whopper.
Is this some kind of racial allegory?Is this the end of the smart black trainers with white soles era of pundits
Is this some kind of racial allegory?
WTF?! Is that what came to your mind?!Is this some kind of racial allegory?
Looks like it’s not just an internal disciplinary issue and actually something that’s quite damaging then.https://talksport.com/football/2018980/jermaine-jenas-addresses-allegations-bbc-sacking
"There are no plans for Jenas to broadcast as a presenter on talkSPORT in the immediate future, either."
Talkshite quietly binning him off too
I'd call it genius if a comedian made this sketch. How is this real life?I genuinely think I could quote it word for word at this point, with all the mannerisms.
