Shearer Shuns Mackems!

Alan Shearer has decided to shun the Stadium of Shite tomorrow for ''Football Focus''. The 41-year-old was expected to feature as a guest on Football Focus, which will be broadcast live from Sunderland AFC for the first time, but he wants a day off. Last week Dan Walker, host of the BBC1 lunchtime show, asked the Geordie if he was keen to take part in Mackemland, but Shearer said: “No thanks”. At the time they thought he was joking . BUT HE WASN''T! Instead, former Black Cats defender Michael Gray (famous on Tyneside for missing that penalty against Charlton at Wembley) will join ex-Arsenal defender Martin Keown and commentator Guy Mowbray for the programme tomorrow.
