We now cross over to Liverpool, where it's believed that a riot is taking place. Stephen Irons has the story.
A newsreader stands on a pavement. Behind him ranks of solemn Liverpudlians march through the street, shouting incomprehensibly.

Thankyou Jennifer. Yes, there is chaos in Liverpool today as hundreds of citizens take to the streets to protest against alleged comments made by football pundit Gary Lineker as to the form of Liverpool midfielder Stephen Gerrard. This is my report.
A large man in a Liverpool t-shirt is waving a sign reading 'death to those who say that Gerrard is past it'. Other signs read 'kill the pundit that strikes against Gerrard' and, quite simply, 'death to Lineker'. Others merely wave Liverpool flags.
Stephen Irons Vo.
Liverpudlians today; inflamed and angry. The cause? Words spoken in jest from a commentator's box. We cannot repeat the words, but they are believed to have been derogatory and concerning the skills of Liverpool's star player Stephen Gerrard.
A large man is shouting into a microphone.
Man
It's an insult to a proud tradition, a proud tradition of football in Liverpool. It is an insult and they shall pay!
Stephen Irons Vo.
Can you make threats so openly?
Man
It's a free country, I can say whatever I like.
Another Man is shouting into the microphone.

Liverpool is in our blood. I support Liverpool, my father supported Liverpool, his father supported Liverpool, his Father supported Everton and was thrown into the River Mersey by his sons.

The Football Association has assured the public that they will not submit to pressure and change their broadcasting to suit individual needs.
There is a short clip of a football game, with Stephen Gerrard losing the ball when the commentators divert their own attentions.
