Sky Sports sacks the monkey. The organ grinder runs for the hills

I was wrong.  Sky Sports did the right thing and sacked Andy Gray.  Richard Keys quit, apologising at first but then bizarrely quoting "dark forces" forcing his resignation.  


Keys said: “With success comes envy. The clips you have seen are fairly selective. They have targeted two individuals."


I'm sure it's a conspiracy, Richard.  It's absolutely NOT because you're a nob.

Feminists - lace up yer boots!

For the folks who don't believe that people still scorn women in certain careers...


Sky Sports football commentators Andy Gray and Richard Keyes, were caught off-air in this conversation about female Line Referee, Sian Massey, during the recent Wolves vs Liverpool match:


RK: “Someone should get down there and explain the offside rule to her”
AG: “Can you believe that?  A female linesman.  Women don’t know the Offside Rule”
RK: “Course they don’t.  I can guarantee you there will be a big one today. Kenny [Dalglish] will go potty. This isn’t the first time, is it? Didn’t we have one before?”

...
RK: “The game’s gone mad.  Did you hear charming Karen Brady this morning complaining about sexism? Do me a favour, love.


Don't believe me?  Hear the audio recording here.

Will these morons be sacked?  Nah.  Would they be sacked if they had made racist comments about players?  Yep.

Here's a link to explain the Offside Rule for people who are not qualified Line Referees. No doubt it will also greatly assist any qualified Line Referees who are also female.
