It's relatively early days yet, but I'm enjoying carra, neville, henry, given, bellamy etc much more than those dinosaurs who offered next to no insight into the game for fans.

      Richard Keys went on a snorkeling trip off the coast of The Bantahamas.
      When Keysie finally re - surfaced, Graysie asked Keysie what ocean creatures he'd seen. Keysie spoke of beautiful tropical fish, a few small sharks, some squid, but seemed rather taken with a huge ray he'd seen.
      "A stingray?" asked Graysie. "No," Keysie replied.

Sorry but if the host wants any credibility then THIS is the line that he should've pursued - they seem pally so that's obviously why he bottled it.

      Andy was sacked instantly & Richard resigned because of that.
      Basically there were new bosses at Sky & they were gonna find a way to get rid of these two without having to pay out their salaries for unfair dismissal.
      They were stitched up. I don’t particularly like either of them, but they were systematically shafted out of that job so that the new Sky bosses could push womens football & an ethnic diversity agenda.

    What really wound me up about the Keys/Gray thing at the time (and still does in general) was all of the people/media lining up to feel offended on somebody elses behalf. By all accounts Sian Massey took no offence, she probably couldn't give a fuck what two middle aged men on telly say off camera, believe me she'll hear far worse from the crowd stood a few feet behind her. It really annoys me when people get hysterically offended on behalf of somebody else who probably didn't give a fuck.
    Their sacking had nothing to do with equality or sexism.. Andy Gray's legal action against Murdoch for allegedly tapping his phone had much more to do with it than anything these two said off camera. There were people in Sky who already wanted them out. Mobile phone footage doesn't send itself to the Mail on Sunday, that video of Gray putting the microphone down his trousers in front of Charlotte Jackson doesn't upload itself onto TH-cam. Somebody has done all of that & it's nothing to do with Sian Massey.
    I also remember Sian Massey was taken off of several games around that time, due to the intense, bonkers, unnecessary media attention around the whole story. For a few days the entire media became vocal opponents of sexism, but they all filled airtime and column inches for their own self promotion - Karren Brady etc. None of them gave a shit about Massey, she was just a convenient catalyst for them. All these people did was harm Masseys career to serve their own agenda against Gray & Keys.
    I'm not saying Keys is a victim, because believe me neither of them two have lost anything. Both of them get paid more than they used to on Sky to spend all day on a Qatari beach & do a football TV show on Al Jazeera. The only victim was Sian Massey herself, deemed collateral damage in the medias quest to oust Gray & Keys. Personally I think Sky Sports is better now, with Chamberlain, Neville & Carra, but the Gray/Keys thing pissed me off then and it still does.

    This man made sexist comments consistently for years. This was not a one time thing. Over and over again he spoke about how women shouldn't be in football and said they "don't understand" the offside rule. He now tries to claim it was just "banter." Racist, homophobic, and sexist comments are not "banter" they reveal the speaker's true feelings. He was caught out when he thought he couldn't be heard, his true nature was shown and he paid for it.

    • @DrifterUnreal3

      but hey how was he caught out, listen to what he said "a convo recorded on a mobile phone got leaked to the mail" and you think that is ok? what if someone was recording your conversations? and the bit about him saying good luck and speaking to her afterwards is also true. ffs even she said it was a bit of fun!!! and you do know about the whole apology thing. you see the press is very powerful with what they print or dont print. he apologised but someone didnt print it, until he chased them. you dont hear about all the civilians that US drones kill every year, why? because that would make the US government look bad. you dont hear about the fact this countries economics could escalate to that of the Wiemar Republic, why? you know. and remember that the Hyperinflation that was caused the rise of the nazi's

    • @DrifterUnreal3

    • @taylorrusso1426

    The comments those two buffoons made were a little more than mere 'banter', they were the genuine opinions of a pair of social dinosaurs. Nothing wrong with an opinion of course, but people who think that way probably aren't the best ambassadors for modern day football coverage on Sky and it was hardly their first offence. Gary Neville has more than adequately replaced Andy Gray and Keys was never integral to the product anyway.
