Richard Keys & Andy Gray Suspended By SkySports

[Goataldo]

Don't know if any of the YouTube vids above show it because I'm in work and they're blocked, but it said on the news this morning there's another video come to light of Keys in the studio with his feet up talking about Jamie Redknapp's sexual activities with one of his old girlfriends. They didn't have sound on the video but whatever was said Souness didn't look impressed at all.

I saw it yesterday but it's been taken down or rather 'the user has closed their account'....

I think it was Graham Souness and Redknapp, talking about some girl called Louise. Jamie was 'like Louise who? Yeah I used to see her' and The Hairy One butted it with his best football lads' talk; 'Did you smash it?!' He went on; '...well if it's any girl who's been near you I think we know you smashed it!' Redknapp lapped it up and they all laughed, like at the end of Scooby Doo.

God I feel like a schoolyard gossip!

Btw are you serious when you say Redknapp is a sound guy? I think he's a massive cretin, and that's nowt to do with the above.

It was Redknapp and Gullit and the Dutch one studied something he was holding with an air of total disdain.

Sounness was defo there though I'm sure of it. He was sat on a chair in the middle like a german on a sunlounger, with his feet four foot apart and his hands behind his head. All 'look how massive I am, top dog' and all that.

It's a total stitch up, they've been done like kippers. Considering what they've been done for though, it'd be a bit much to have Jamie Redknapp as a replacement! And his dad runs one of the main teams in the competition he'd be speaking about. Jamie is as bent as Harry and I think I'd hate him more than Keys and Gray.

Yeah you're right, Soumess was there ........ I just tend not to notice the obnoxious fooker.

[ryanmcfc]

Keys has resigned.

[Goataldo]

Keys has resigned.

Haha, he wriggled for a bit and then bang. Hahaha.

[Kladze]

Just bought FIFA 12. It's brilliant! When the missus comes into the room Andy Gray shouts out "GET BACK IN THE FUCKING KITCHEN!

You know what. This has all got way out of hand, and is going to cause a knock on effect through the country.
It was just bloke banter that you hear so often in the pub etc and Andi, before you jump on me, we've had it between yourself and I numerous times, although I accept not to the extreme that they went to. Gray was asked these questions and it was recorded. Blatently a trap as an excuse to get rid IMO. Same with Keys.
Queue now the Daily Mail reporting numerous cheif exec's of large organisations etc getting sacked for asking their secretary for a brew and stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I thought these two were a pair of cunts anyway, and could possibly be the reason why they were set up in this way, but if you can't see they were joking, without malice, then you're a blind fucker.

Its complete shit.

You see men ridiculed by women in half the "family ads" on TV... just for being men. I always say to the missus that if it was the other way around, there'd be murder and she reckons there wouldn't be.

Well there clearly fucking would be, because the first time there's any sign of it on a fucking football show, there's a national scandal.

Loose Women. Watch it for 5 mins and you can spot lots of similar shit said. Although, you probably won't watch it... BECAUSE ITS MADE FOR WOMEN'S VIEWING.

It's a known documented fact that when Jamie Redknapp started working for Sky, half the women in the place were delighted & queuing up to have a look & he was the main topic of discussion. Are we to believe that non of the comments about him got down to the level of whether they 'would' or not? I've heard women talking about Beckham both here & abroad & the contrast between his brains & his looks has been in the conversation along with his private parts (in an underwaer commercial) & his 'stupid' wife, their sex life etc etc. Double standards.

That's it in a nutshell.

Just because it was recorded and sent out to the listening public, its a fucking scandal and the type of banter that should never be spoken?!

Why not just get rid of all banter - between rivals, between the sexes, between mates... fuck it, just get rid of all banter, then the world will be right(er).

Comedians talk sexist the whole time. While they may be professional at being funny, the banter between folk is often people TRYING to be comedians. Is it ok to air the professionals on talk shows etc? But definitely not ok if you're just trying to be funny?

I must be a blind fucker then, cos if you are talking about their comments on the lineswoman then the tone was not banter. It was just letting out their prejudice.

I think your point is that there is nothing wrong in a bit of banter.. and you would have to be a bit sad not to agree. I'm pretty sure that any banter you have with the Sis is on a level of mutual respect basically... you give it out, you get it back. But banter can go wrong and basically it is down to the wit of those involved. These two arrogant knobs at Sky you can imagine get it wrong all the time.. especially with younger women because they are both probably completely out of touch.
Blokes having a bit of a banter is usually fine, but get someone who is a bit of knob and it can go wrong and handbags starts or someone gets knarky. The same can happen throwing banter around with women, if the respect isn't there to start with then the whole thing is on a limited wicket.
If anything this whole episode just shows what knobs older blokes can be, out of touch and trying to make up for it by pretending they think they know whats going on, and too thick to realise they dont.

Except it wasn't banter. Loose Women has sod all to do with anything and if Jamie Redknapp offered down his trousers for a quick fondle then I expect the response would have been a small smile and a jokey response because the ladies like Jamie and don't like Andy. Equally Jamie Redknapp would not have have made the offer in the first place because he isn't a total twat.

Keys and Gray were a pair of misogynist idiots who hadn't moved on in the last 15 or so years when the rest of the world had. They were top dogs at Sky and weren't shy about flaunting it either and largely unloved by those they worked with. None of this was a problem until the game passed them by and Gray started to look like a character off a Harry Enfield show with his 442 and "whats this zonal marking rubbish" and "we played 3 games a week in my day" etc etc. And even that he could have got away with except they relaunched Monday Night Football and we had a whole hour of Gray and Keys chortling and floundering around in the studio and talking out of their arses for the most part.

Sky needed a reason to get rid and they provided it. Gray suing NotW didn't help and Keys committing broadcasting suicide yesterday was a sign of a man who didn't really have a clue what the fuss was about and bewildered that his colleagues had extracted revenge. I imagine Keys thought he was quite popular.

Keys and Gray ran their course a few years back and the more they were on air the more it showed. If Sky wanted to keep them then none of his would have come to light just as none of it did previously. Political correctness has little to do with it since Sky Sports runs on politically incorrect lines with its production line of blondes and tits. Keys and Gray got done because they were no longer relevant and no longer wanted.

If they treat women badly at their workplace then they deserve to be sacked, no question. To be sacked because they had the wrong tone of voice on some off camera remarks however, is fucking ridiculous & if a similar thing happened to a woman for talking about them, people would be backing her.

The trouble with PC gone mad is that people are willing to use any kind of sickening methods to enforce it, provided the end result falls in with their point of view. Nobody stops to think how, if you allow this kind of infringement of people's privacy to be used against them, it can be used in totally the opposite way to bring about very undesireable results indeed.
