Agree 💯 Too many yes men in Sky, Well.dode Le Tis for sticking to your guns, something similar happened in 1996 when Brunel was having his second fight with Tyson, the Ringside Panel were warned during the build up not to say anything negative about Bruno's chances, as if it was going to make any difference, and Bruno got slaughtered!! If you don't say the right thing on any Sky Sports panel, you're out the door.
This a man. I never realised how intelligent and thoughtful he us, and the moral courage to stand against the crowd. What character, it's immense. This is the sort of fellow young men and boys should look at as a role model.
I once asked a pro footballing coach just what, in his opinion, was it that made Matt LeTissier stand out from what can be called just a run of the mill premiership footballer. He answered, which I cannot remember word for word went something like this. He's a genealogical freak - there is nothing the man cannot do and excel at. Secondly his brain seems to be working a couple of seconds ahead of play the whole time which is why he finds the space to move into to receive and pass a ball, his head has sold the opponent a dummy before his body does (still cannot make real sense of that one) which is why his ball control and ability to ghost past quality defenders is just beyond any other player on the planet (that I remember clearly as being the exact words used), thirdly he's an explosive player, he just seems to walk through a game and then explodes into speed and power for the length of time it takes to do what he had planned - you blink and he's gone and so's his shot usually from a long way out and uncannily accurate as well. He listens to those who matter and dismisses those who don't, he's loyal and you can't coach that into someone. Matty thrilled me every time I saw him play. In the later years you just knew if he was on the subs bench he would stride out, do something nobody else could, put his arm in the air, smile and be humble again. That coach also said Matt's name should have been the first on the team sheet for all of the England managers and then they find ten who can accommodate him and exploit the chances his prescence in the middle gave them. There will never be a finer artist in the beautiful game.
I like the fact that he called out Sky for still employing Carragher after the spitting incident. Even though the young girl wasn't his real target he should never have been allowed back. Carragher, Neville and the clown known as Micah Richards for me are the most annoying thing about football pundits.
Spitting is a disgusting act. Personally however I cannot say that that would not have reacted with a similar act if I had been subjected to the continuous vile barrage of insults Carragher had to suffer. It's best to learn the facts before snapping to a judgement on any individual.
As a Pompey fan I cursed him when he played for that lot down the road. He was, however, one of the finest players of his generation, a great servant to his club and is obviously an intelligent thinker. In a society that associates itself with freedom of though and speech his treatment is a disgrace. When you persecute honest opinion you are on the road to totalitarianism.
Totally agree! I’m a Pompey fan but always admired Le Tissier as a footballer, even though he played for that lot. I admire him even more now for putting his head above the parapet
Nice one mate. I hate racism to the core but I said the same but blm were never and are not the answer. They want disbanding as they will just cause more division just like the edl did all those years ago. Both organisations were the same but on different bus routes.
@@giveusanesirbobholness7199 great comparison with the EDL....both these disruptive movements are allowed to thrive because it pushes the divide and rule agenda....
Whether or not you agree with him on this point and it just so happens I do, you cannot fail to admire a man who stands up for what he believes in and will not just "virtue signal" to fit in with the crowd. Well done Matt!
@@farahhassan2000 Didn't say black lives don't matter and nor did Le Tissier. I DO however have a problem with the Black Lives Matter organisation. Two very different things, so READ what people write and LISTEN to what they say and don't jump to the wrong conclusions.
@@farahhassan2000 and those two individuals were as perfect as they are held up as? No organisation is perfect. Correct. Especially one that is just a political arm of the democrat party in the US. Nothing more and nothing less. You clearly didn't watch the video because he did say that he would happily wear an anti racism badge or support any organisation, just not BLM. Anyone decent, sane and intelligent would never ever have supported BLM because it isn't an anti racism organisation. It's every bit the same racist organisation as the national front and any Neo Nazi twat group.
@@farahhassan2000 Matt clearly states that he would wear any anti racism badge, just not BLM, because he didn’t believe in what they stood for. Many black people have also refused to show their support for them.
What a man Matt is he’s spot on and I’m a black man, men who stand up for what’s truly right without been deceived is what real men do which we are lacking in society and will be the destruction of it!
Seek the facts first, Ukraine is another flag & ribbon wearing where the facts & narrative of the past 20 years & neo Nazism is now censored. I don't support Facism either.
Being fired for not wearing a BLM badge is like being fired for not wearing a Poppy, or breast cancer ribbon. An optional thing that people can wear to show support but not mandatory. People can choose to support whatever they want.
BLM stands for one races freedom to do what they want, the poppy represents the freedom we have from one man’s intention to make the world one race and religions freedom…………..
@@vigilantetroll6865 the poppy has a lot more hidden in its meaning when you realise the british empire was partially funded through the opium trade and this why we use it. Its has sod all to do with poppies sprouting up on battlegrounds after the battle of waterloo
I'd put it more akin to refusing to wear a swastika than a poppy etc. Poppies are for all of the fallen, including the German & are non political. Unlike BLM or the swastika which are closer than most think...
Same with Ukraine. The facts about Ukraine & its neo Nazism is never mentioned. I feel for the ordinary citizens but Ukraine & Nato are responsible for this conflict.
@@seltaeb3302 neo nazism? You do realise that the far right failed miserably at the last Ukrainian elections? I'm guessing there are no more nazi's in Ukraine than there is in Britain and America. If they loved nazism in Ukraine that much they would be run by a far right government. The vast majority of Ukrainian citizens obviously didn't want that.
Nothing but admiration & respect for this man, having the guts to speak out & tell the truth, not only risking his career but his reputation, which in the minds of many has increased his popularity & secured his status.
@@wleon4068 ya sky really speak the truth, its not for their brand at all. why do they show the Saudi Arabia grand prix and also say they are against discrimination?
How refreshing. A principled and honourable gentleman.....and a phenomenal player. I wonder how many of his Sky colleagues looked up and read about BLM. I'm willing to bet there were very few.
Badge of honour Matt! You are a true Englishman, a true gent. This is why we love a one club man like Matt, you just know he has absolute integrity to a fault.
This man speaks the truth. Those 'taking the knee' continue to embarrass themselves - as if the England football team could not embarrass themselves any more.
As a fellow Guernseyman living in England, I am very proud of Matt, and always have been, but even more so now! I no longer watch football on television, and haven't done so for nearly a couple of years. To see these players go down on bended knee makes me want to vomit! And I want England to lose every time they play. The hypocrisy of standing for the national anthem and then cravenly kneeling in sympathy with a thug - led terrorist organisation that despises Western democracy and Britishness is beyond deplorable.
I no longer watch any football on TV because I can't stand the hypocrisy of a bunch of millionaire foreigners kneeling like cuckolds before every match, dressed up in their rainbow colours and not having a clue about whichever political movement they are representing that particular week. Black armbands are also a must for every match, whether it be a footballer from the 60's or the tea-lady's cat who has passed away!
Matt is a legend of British football, he’s loved an admired by supporters of all clubs for he’s brilliance with a football he’s loyalty to His club and supporters but also because he just talks sense without bullshit or spin
What an absolute disgrace it is the way Matt has been treated. He has stood up against what is wrong. Sky's reputation is on it's arse and they are a disgusting company.
look at sly sports now - begged & overpaid jeff to stay as the panel is so weak woke & mamby pamby ,view figs are way down & most are tied into sky bet - not good
Too be fair SKY has always been a disgusting company. I'm pretty sure Matt would have heard of the News Of The World and guess who owned that? Yep Murdouch.
Well done Mat ,if you think something is not correct or even truthful ,you should be able to say so. It's not your fault that the company and truth seem to be distant strangers. Sadly this is so common now with the main stream media.

I've got nothing but respect for Matt La Tissier. Good on you Matt.....Back in tthe early 90's, I typed an email of complaint because a champions league game was shown on Terestrial TV but the second leg was shown on Sky....Ofcom replied by saying "What do you expect us to do against a company the size of Sky?" Absolutely Disgusting!!
I am black and I have never been behind the Black life matters, all lives matter. It is US driven and everyone should be allowed to have an opinion. Well done Matt onwards and upward.
God bless you Matt, an excellent footballer, an excellent human being, if only God made more like you, the world would not be in the mess that it is in today. A real MAN.
I bet the silence was deafening from his co-workers supporting him. I cancelled Sky a few years ago and pay no attention to football on it now. Surprised me how quickly i forgot all about it and didn't miss it. You did the correct thing Matt , you still have your soul.
Best footy is here on TH-cam right up into the 90s. After that it all changed, perfect pitches that mean nothing, a silly trick football & players who have nothing in common from where they came from. It's just a video game now. A World Cup with 48 teams! Jesus, I won't be watching & still England (I'm Scottish) still hasn't got to host it from 1966. England doesnt need to build one stadium. Maybe that's why, no money to swill about.
An absolute legend .I admire the mans guts and courage for standing up to to it and exposing all the lies.I stopped funding sky years back when they paid £1.59 billion for the football and hiked everyone's bill by £3.50 a month to pay for it !!!!!! Criminals hiding in plain sight
Start your own channel Matt! Absolutely agree that there was better ways to promote anti-racism than being forced one specific narrative (that if you weren't comfortable with it didn't matter). Ironically completely goes against free speech and discrimination which they are apparently trying to preach! 98% of people feel they way you do about how Sky, BBC etc. are moving forwards and we need to fight back against it. As I say, make your own channel, do your own podcasts discussing these topics and you will get a lot of traction my man. All the best
You really sure about that? I think you should really study what BLM are about and why they do what they do. Your opinion might just change about them, for the better.
@@wleon4068 one of the biggest scam organisation's on the planet. She took millions out and made herself rich. You need to educate yourself and stop listening to mainstream media.
Nailed it for me when he mentioned Carragher and his vile spitting in a young girls face......i'm sorry and he gets to keep his job......i stopped my sky sub that day.......Matt you kept your integrity mate and i have great respect for you not to be bullied by such a corporation
Chris Leas I reckon Matt much better getting away from Sky.Hes a talented man,modest and so glad he speaks out on the nonsense unlike most other celebrities who are spineless.
Correct, that incident where it was purely joking banter & he spat into that car & girl shocked me & he kept his job was disgraceful. Vile, yet Matt has his British rights to a democratic choice & who would notice he was or wasn't wearing a ribbon & why. This is Britain now, witch hunts & kowtowing to religions that espouses violence & repression.
Great interview and points made by Matt. I haven't watched Gilette soccer saturday since Matt, Charlie and Phil were let go, it's just not the same without them!
It's an absoloute blessing to see all this support for him. Can't see one thumb down or negative comment. For all their manipulation and attempts at brainwashing, i'm proud to see so many decent and awake folk here
Carragher can spit on a girl & yet retain his job. That disgusted me yet Matt chooses not to wear a ribbon in a democratic country & gets sacked for it.
Fair play to you Matt for sticking to your principles and you have proven to be right on many things.By doing what you did you probably found out who your friends really are but you have also found that you appeal to a lot more people and we do appreciate that you saw it for what it is. Sky has gone woke now because it's new owners and you won't play the game.
Strange that no one else around him tells the story the way he does. I get the feeling, with hindsight, he's constructing a narrative that shows himself as a man of principle. When actually he just spoke his mind and suffered the consequences. I wonder, considering the way he reacted at the time, if given the chance he'd behave differently.
Well done Matt. I despise Sky. They stand for everything that is wrong with MSM. I think we all know what "Going in a different direction" means. Their strategy of hiring female ex-footballers to replace the likes of Premier legends like yourself, is a joke too. They have never played at your level. How are they qualified to fill your boots. Utter disgrace.
I've been saying this for years. I have no problem with anything women want to do or participate in but don't dress it up to be any more than it is. You don't get National League Footballers offering opinions on MotD because they haven't played at that level....women's international football is not even at that level so how do they qualify.
i never thought women were interested in football? but now they are popping up everywhere & are commenting on how world class footballers in the premier league should be playing... it is utterly absurd... why don't they stick to their game? why do they want to tell men what to do? leave our game alone.
What a gentleman,one club player who could have made alot more money moving to a bigger club,great footballer as well,keep speaking your truth ,well done👍👍👍👍👍
Sacked not for controversy but for asking logical questions. Madness! I wish more people had the integrity to stand up.

I am black and I have never been behind the Black life matters, all lives matter. It is US driven and everyone should be allowed to have an opinion. Well done Matt onwards and upward.

Well said Matt, you stood up for common sense 👍🏻
God bless you Matt, an excellent footballer, an excellent human being, if only God made more like you, the world would not be in the mess that it is in today. A real MAN.
Oh well bye bye.
A far right conspiracy spouting nutjob, plus he’s boring AF
If only people grew up and stopped believing in fantasy figures, the world would not be in the mess that it is in today.
@@seanscanlon9067 not really true though is it, given its politicians, the people you vote in, that have created the mess that the world is in today.
I applaud you sir for standing up to your own free will and choices, an absolute credit to this weak minded human race!
Millions of pathetic, weak-minded sheep prepared to be slaves over the last two years.
Well said Matt , you have a lot of support out here 👏🏻👏🏻
Good on him!! Total respect for Matt Le Tissier!!! and a great footballer!
Well done Lad ! We need more people with balls like you.! 👍
I bet the silence was deafening from his co-workers supporting him. I cancelled Sky a few years ago and pay no attention to football on it now. Surprised me how quickly i forgot all about it and didn't miss it. You did the correct thing Matt , you still have your soul.
Same here dont watch Sky get sick of their agenda woke as f#ck.
Stopped watchin football ciuple of years ago. Uts shite now money ruined it long ago
Best footy is here on TH-cam right up into the 90s. After that it all changed, perfect pitches that mean nothing, a silly trick football & players who have nothing in common from where they came from. It's just a video game now. A World Cup with 48 teams! Jesus, I won't be watching & still England (I'm Scottish) still hasn't got to host it from 1966. England doesnt need to build one stadium. Maybe that's why, no money to swill about.
matt le tiss is fantastic; formerly as a professional sportsman, & as a human being...
Well done Matt, you're a voice for all of us who think critically and see through the lies... keep speaking the truth !!!
says the far right arsehole who follows Tommeh Robinson. Appears you don't see through the lies, numpty head.
Good on you Matt for bringing up the Carragher incident. Not enough was made of that. Shocking decision by Sky to re-instate him.
It’s crazy they kept him on, but got rid of Le Tiss cuz he wouldn’t wear a badge 😄
What a beacon you are Matt. Admired your playing in the 90s. Now I admire your fortitude
An absolute legend .I admire the mans guts and courage for standing up to to it and exposing all the lies.I stopped funding sky years back when they paid £1.59 billion for the football and hiked everyone's bill by £3.50 a month to pay for it !!!!!! Criminals hiding in plain sight
You cancelled cos of a 3.50 price rise?🤣you sad man
@@tomjones7184 it’s called being principled, you sad little man
@@jameshunter7303 3.50? 😂and especially with high inflation atm. He’s probably paying the exact price he was paying before!!🤡
@@jameshunter7303 aww you sticking up for you boyfriend?😂
Fairplay you have the right to cancel but we live in a capitalist society,
Look at fuel prices, food, energy , gas etc. daylight robbery
So refreshing to see a guy of your fame Matt not be bought by these assholes. Hold your head up high, your integrity is amazing.
Start your own channel Matt! Absolutely agree that there was better ways to promote anti-racism than being forced one specific narrative (that if you weren't comfortable with it didn't matter). Ironically completely goes against free speech and discrimination which they are apparently trying to preach!
98% of people feel they way you do about how Sky, BBC etc. are moving forwards and we need to fight back against it. As I say, make your own channel, do your own podcasts discussing these topics and you will get a lot of traction my man.
All the best
98%? You sure? Maybe 98% of your mates.
@Richard Temple Bit of a weirdo comment
he has his own channel on gettr
I don't mind that Matt made a stance ,but what I find funny is the racist Murdoch and his SKY taking a stance FOR black lives matter. This is a joke.
Not to mention the BLM movement was causing riots and violence around the planet. Is that the answer to wear that badge? I think not .
Well done for speaking out on your believes. We need more people like you. 👌👍
He was a genius on football pitch and holds a lot of common sense and moral standards.
A man who stands up for his principles and a legend on the pitch. Other presenters should follow his example.
le tisse a legend
What a man. He will be on the right side of history.
👍
You really sure about that? I think you should really study what BLM are about and why they do what they do. Your opinion might just change about them, for the better.
@@wleon4068 yeah like buying multiple mansions in cali instead of giving it to poor black ppl in need. Such a great cause.....
@@wleon4068 Christ your naive.
@@wleon4068 one of the biggest scam organisation's on the planet. She took millions out and made herself rich. You need to educate yourself and stop listening to mainstream media.
Nailed it for me when he mentioned Carragher and his vile spitting in a young girls face......i'm sorry and he gets to keep his job......i stopped my sky sub that day.......Matt you kept your integrity mate and i have great respect for you not to be bullied by such a corporation
It baffled me how Carragher kept his job as well. Anyone else in any walk of life would be sacked.
Chris Leas I reckon Matt much better getting away from Sky.Hes a talented man,modest and so glad he speaks out on the nonsense unlike most other celebrities who are spineless.
Correct, that incident where it was purely joking banter & he spat into that car & girl shocked me & he kept his job was disgraceful. Vile, yet Matt has his British rights to a democratic choice & who would notice he was or wasn't wearing a ribbon & why. This is Britain now, witch hunts & kowtowing to religions that espouses violence & repression.
Spot on Matt. Telling the truth makes some people uncomfortable.
Great interview and points made by Matt. I haven't watched Gilette soccer saturday since Matt, Charlie and Phil were let go, it's just not the same without them!
Matt should head up an awakened version of Match of the Day which should be totally uncensored.
Speak the truth and you'll get sacked from any of these propaganda shows. Respect Matt, your stance will never be forgotten.
Well done Matt. Don't have to justify your actions. Stick to your beliefs
One of the finest footballers of his generation. Superb player and loyal to a fault.
THANKYOU Matt the only professional footballer to speak out
Matt will be on the right side of history.
I think wilfried zaha also dosent kneel and dont agree with it. But he himself is not white so he gets to keep working
It's an absoloute blessing to see all this support for him. Can't see one thumb down or negative comment. For all their manipulation and attempts at brainwashing, i'm proud to see so many decent and awake folk here
A man with integrity and dignity. Seems like a really decent man.
So much respect for this man 🙏
Sometimes it has to be said the way it really was. Balls of steel that man.
Matt is a hero who speaks the truth regardless of the consequences, his integrity is a real inspiration.
He was a great player,and now he is showing what a great man he is,i have great respect to him for speaking out about this woke 💩
Man after my own heart....got sooo much respect for this guy..... because he tells it like it is...and not how the media want us to.....
You are a legend matt !
Lineker and those other snakes - their time will come . Those dirty little virtue signalling parasites !
Well done Matt for speaking out.
These are the thoughts of a lot of people, respect to matt for expressing his beliefs 👍
Well Done Matt! Huge respect from me!
Respect Matt 👏
Please let Matt Le Tisier know, his morals, his strength, his intelligence are wonderful benchmarks for all youngsters to follow
I totally agree with Matt it makes me feel physically sick whenever i hear or see Carragher vile individual.
Carragher can spit on a girl & yet retain his job. That disgusted me yet Matt chooses not to wear a ribbon in a democratic country & gets sacked for it.
Has Mat got his own podcast by any chance.
I like listening to him speak his honest opinion on things
Huge respect to you matt well done
Fair play to you Matt for sticking to your principles and you have proven to be right on many things.By doing what you did you probably found out who your friends really are but you have also found that you appeal to a lot more people and we do appreciate that you saw it for what it is. Sky has gone woke now because it's new owners and you won't play the game.
Standing up for what you believe in is a great thing..... well done Matt....
Strange that no one else around him tells the story the way he does. I get the feeling, with hindsight, he's constructing a narrative that shows himself as a man of principle. When actually he just spoke his mind and suffered the consequences. I wonder, considering the way he reacted at the time, if given the chance he'd behave differently.
Well done Matt. I despise Sky. They stand for everything that is wrong with MSM.
I think we all know what "Going in a different direction" means.
Their strategy of hiring female ex-footballers to replace the likes of Premier legends like yourself, is a joke too. They have never played at your level. How are they qualified to fill your boots. Utter disgrace.
I've been saying this for years. I have no problem with anything women want to do or participate in but don't dress it up to be any more than it is. You don't get National League Footballers offering opinions on MotD because they haven't played at that level....women's international football is not even at that level so how do they qualify.
yes...
You are not a premier league footballer so you can't comment on football ,get real 😉
i never thought women were interested in football?
but now they are popping up everywhere & are commenting on how world class footballers in the premier league should be playing...
it is utterly absurd... why don't they stick to their game?
why do they want to tell men what to do?
leave our game alone.
need more brave people like Matt!!
Why ?
Absolutely!
Brave? He's a total misinformed plank.
@@channelwright9137 🤣🤣🤣🤣
A sportsman to truly respect!
A man of principles.
What a legend. Didn’t know he was so based
The voice of reason in a world where reason is under assault from diabolical thinking.
Matt's a fucking legend. On and off the pitch.
Great man it seems standing your ground is what makes you different now.
Being told you HAVE to wear a certain badge about a certain organisation or cause isn’t the place of an employer in a free country
What a gentleman,one club player who could have made alot more money moving to a bigger club,great footballer as well,keep speaking your truth ,well done👍👍👍👍👍
Well done Matt Good on you :) Standing up for what you believe. Great interview
