as I understand it they've suspended him and his two senior coaches(pundits) are refusing to work whilst that is the case

Mind you he seems to have a lot of support

Several BBC TV and radio sports shows have been pulled at the last minute, including Football Focus, Final Score and Fighting Talk

I wonder if that is really the case? :-k

The fact that some are bigging it up on social media means nothing, if they don't want to get paid by the BBC anymore then resign.

Issue solved.

They may well have expected me to do extra for no extra, but that wasn't the final outcome.

Once I dropped them and got paid, they said they would text me the return details. They can text me what they like, but I think they will end up coming back in a Gatwick cab for the best part of double what I charged them to get there. :D
