Gabby Logan’s brutal blow from TV bosses

Today, Gabby is one of the BBC’s top talents and is one of three presenters fronting Match of the Day following Gary Lineker’s exit last year.

This afternoon, she’s fronting the coverage of the Six Nations match between Scotland and France at Murrayfield.

However, back in 2006, Gabby was questioning her future in the industry after being sent home from the World Cup in Germany by TV bosses.

Gabby opened up about the humiliating incident during an appearance on Kate Thornton’s White Wine Question Time podcast last year.

“I think I had a rough ride in my early thirties in my career, and I can’t believe that’s nearly 20 years ago. At the time, I thought it was going to be the end of my career,” she recalled.
