Matt and Chris work well together mind, so it's a shame he's quitting.
This...
Although, reading the MLB interview, I can get his reasons. It’s a hell of an itinerary, doing 2 shows, one here, one on Los Angeles, young family etc...

Oh yeah, I understand his reasons fully, can't blame him at all. Those two were about the only thing I liked about the current show mind

The new line up will be awful, losing MLB is a real shame.

This.
At least Harris is staying.

Somehow I doubt he's going to even nearly balance out the other two knobs.

I expect the new series will be good
Monkey for the serious stuff
All three for the cocking about stuff
And either of the funny northern accents for “relatable” stuff
I think people will like it

Is one of them Flintoff? Not sure I'd describe him as a knob.

I met him at a do a few years ago and he was a bit of a cock but I think that was the booze and crowd expectations he played to. But nowadays he doesn't drink and doesn't play up to the laddish behaviour that everyone used to expect of him.
I enjoy listening to the Flintoff, Savage & the ping-pong guy podcast and he comes across very well.
I am quietly confident that Top Gear will be ok in its next transformation.

I also think it will be ok. The worst thing is that this type of format requires camaraderie and that takes a few seasons to develop as we have seen with Chris and Matt so the first season will be lacklustre.

I'll take your word for it. I'm not planning to watch any of their output (at least until they're putting out TG with them presenting it... out of morbid curiosity).

You’ve not watched “A League of ther Own” then?.
Pulling down peoples shorts in public places seems to be a favourite of his at the moment.

No I haven't. But that is amusing to the child in me though

Saw this on Twitter, I think it's a sensible suggestion and I'd consider moving to Manchester
