# Gary Lineker aims fresh swipe at BBC - 'I should have left 10 years ago!'
Gary Lineker, the former face of BBC sports programming, recently took a playful jab at his ex-employer, claiming he should have departed the network a decade earlier. Lineker, who concluded his longstanding relationship with the BBC in May, has since expressed his satisfaction with his post-BBC career trajectory.
In a humorous remark, Lineker reflected on his time after leaving the BBC, stating, "Since I quit the BBC, or since I finished with the BBC is probably a better way of describing it, I've won more awards than in my life!" This comment highlights his belief that his talents were underappreciated during his years at the corporation.
Lineker continued his critique, candidly asserting, "I should have left 10 years ago!" This sentiment underscores a growing sentiment among certain public figures that long-standing associations can sometimes stifle professional growth. His remarks have resonated with observers who view them as a pointed commentary on the BBC’s management of talent.
