Jermaine was sacked from the while live on air with TalkSPORT– but it is not the first time he has been given the boot. The former footballer lost his job at the Beeb over he allegedly sent to a female colleague at The One Show. According the the Sun, some other women have since come forward to complain about the presenter who was muted to replace Gary Linekar on Match of the Day.
But ironically, while the news was breaking yesterday (August 22), Jenas, 41, was speaking live on TalkSPORT about his brutal ‘cut throat’ axing from Hotspur. He realised he was no longer wanted after turning up to ’ fancy new training ground – only to be denied access. The former England star was speaking about Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell being shunned from when he relived his own experience.
He said: “Mine was bad like that. Spurs had built this brand new training facility and I was there for about six months and I thought, ‘this place is absolutely stunning, it’s beautiful’. “But what it was, when you walked in through reception - so at this point Andre Villas-Boas had just joined the club.
I did the whole pre-season. “My achilles weren’t great, I’ll be totally honest. So I wasn’t anywhere near my best but obviously thought I’d be given a bit of time to kind of get myself up to speed and maybe around time I could fight for my place in the team.
” But Jenas did not get the chance to show his worth, after being savagely denied access to training eight years after.
