Micah Richards vows to one up Gary Lineker on Match of the Day in Newcastle bet

Micah Richards has burned an image of him presenting Match of the Day naked into the minds of Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer. The 36-year-old former Manchester City star has promised that he will present the BBC favourite in his birthday suit should Shearer's beloved Newcastle United win the Premier League this season. Speaking on a recent instalment of The Rest Is Football, Richards said: "If Newcastle win the league, I'll do Match of the Day naked.".
It was much to the delight of Lineker and Shearer, who could be heard jeering and cackling in the background. The former added: "I wonder if they'd allow me do one last show then if that was the case." Before Shearer then joked: "F***ing hell, everyone would have to get wide screens for that night wouldn't they?".
As the hosts once more burst into fits of laughter, Lineker jibed: "Don't go down that stereotypical route Alan, please." Shearer responded: "I didn't mean for that, I meant for his guns.". The trio then moved on to other topics of conversation, but as they signed off the podcast, Lineker said: "I'm going to start cheering Newcastle on now, so they win the league. Micah's promised." Shearer replied: "We don't want that, man, do we? And we want Newcastle to win the league, we don't want that idiot on our TVs with nout on.".
