If ever there was a time for him to leave the BBC it was now.
Lets face it he got shafted on the Euros by not having the role that he expected.
The Olympics are once every 4 years, and the fact that he got to host a Home Olympics has to be a pinnacle of any Sports presenters career.
Given the announcement that he's to be a father, it's pretty obvious he wasn't going to want to continue globe trotting, and he has always stated that presenting Premiership football would be a dream.
I have to say that when you lay it out, it's not that much of a surprise.
